Five Songs is a weekly series for paid Hearing Things subscribers in which we each choose a new song we like and write about why we can’t stop listening to it.
Get access to everything we do at Hearing Things—including weekly album and song recommendations along with our ever-growing archive of interviews and reports—with a free 30-day trial!
Stay tuned for strummy twee-pop for lovelorn afternoons, retrofuturistic dance music from one of the UK’s foremost young divas, a rap song that samples Fred Again.. and is somehow not corny as hell, a meta tribute to the power of rock’n’roll courtesy of Jeff Tweedy, and an ode to hooking up that’s as tender as it is horny. Enjoy!
