Biography

 

For a while there, singer-songwriter Dean Lewis could have been lost to the gaming world. In 2005, he represented Australia playing Halo 2 at the World Cyber Games in Singapore–and finished fifth. But after developing an obsession with Oasis, he secreted himself in his room with his acoustic guitar. Born in Sydney in 1987, Lewis first took up the instrument at his father's urging at age 12, but only started to take it seriously in his late teens. “I spent all these years in my bedroom not thinking I was good enough,” Lewis told Apple Music. “It took a lot of people to say, ‘Oh, you’re good enough to do it.’” One of those people was Savage Garden’s former manager, whom Lewis, an Apple Music Up Next honoree, met at a boat party via a mutual friend. Upon hearing Lewis’ music, she helped land him a publishing deal. Hundreds of songs later—some of which went to artists such as Australian singer Taylor Henderson—Lewis released his debut single, “Waves,” in 2016. Imbued with James Blunt’s vocal vulnerability and Chris Martin’s knack for turning the everyday into a sweeping, affecting, relatable tune, “Waves” is a rumination on life becoming less exciting as you age. And it showcased his ability to land a killer blow in one line: “I watched my wild youth disappear in front of my eyes.” “That really personal style of writing is something I got from Bruce Springsteen,” he said. It’s on full display on his debut album, 2019’s A Place We Knew–the follow-up to his 2017 EP Same Kind of Different. Songs such as “7 Minutes” and “Be Alright” combine personal heartbreak with melodic, contemporary soft rock. “Ninety percent of the things I sing about are things that have happened to me,” he offers. “That’s how the songs connect.” - Apple Music

Golden Hours is a very interesting track. I don’t know what to make of it on first listen. A whole lot of musical elements in it.

This is really nice, but it does just sound like a standard Tik Tok soundbed at the same time.

Biography

 

Some may dismiss pop as inauthentic. But for Lady Gaga—one of popular culture’s greatest, most extravagant creations—the inauthenticity is the point. No artist has more defiantly embodied that provocation this century than the one born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (in New York in 1986). Never wedded to the same image—one minute wearing a dress made of raw meat at the MTV VMAs, the next a coat of Kermit the Frog puppets on German TV—Gaga personifies pop’s surface obsessions while simultaneously upending them. In a sense, her creative identity had crystallized by age 21, having been a child pianist, aspiring actor, and burlesque performer. Each of these facets powered her career’s most distinct parts: the celebrity fascination of her first two albums, 2008’s The Fame and 2009’s The Fame Monster; the subversive layering of 2011’s Born This Way and 2013’s ARTPOP; the sincere reverence of 2014’s Cheek to Cheek, her jazz standards album with Tony Bennett; and the rootsier songwriting of 2016’s Joanne. If 2009’s “Paparazzi” reveled in the flashes, then “Born This Way” celebrated inner light: In translating her diffuse identity into world-conquering art, Gaga has become a beacon to anyone else who’s felt like an outsider. Her loyal following—a.k.a. Little Monsters—has affirmed a deep connection to her message of self-love and self-expression, despite pop’s fickleness and her chameleonic exterior. She played out a simpler version of her path to fame in the 2018 remake of A Star Is Born: But while her character’s ascent was abetted by her lover, Gaga’s was all her own. - Apple Music

How did he pronounce his name... is it JUKE or JAKE?

 

JAKE

Bad Romance, ALEJANDRO? What a pothead

Edited January 6, 20233 yr by Y'all Starlight

Thought JVKE might not have actually held on to do well in January - glad I was wrong! It is really exceptionally beautiful!

Some good newies coming through then despite the chaos. Enjoying JVKE and Stephen Sanchez.

Did he really just list songs from The Fame (Monster) as being on Born This Way?

Yay at the big new peak for JVKE :heart: not sure it'll climb much further than this now but I hope it does, such a huge sounding chorus.

 

I'm really loving 'Shirt' now, I think SZA nailed the single choices from this album (maybe bar 'I Hate U').

shame gaga missed the top 20, hope she goes next week! such a bop and classic gaga!

JAKE

 

Thank you

 

Shame Bloody Mary missed the top 20, was rooting for it to get as high as possible.

 

Bloody pointless December resets! :angry:

Banger. We need more of this in the chart these days

I assume Dean Lewis is just going to get skipped as often as possible again :drama:

 

Gaga *.* this is such a great song!

22 is incredible for this. I cannot believe the love it has received! :wub:

Did they play Bloody Mary??

 

Amazing to see it in top 40 and higher than HMH last year!
