So if you have a spare 4 mins, please give this beaut a go :wub:

Ugh at me nominating another hardstyle song, but it gotta be this one.

Released 4 months after THE global news, silver bullet was the reason why I considered Phuture Noize the Porter Robinson/Madeon of hardstyle.

All tracks are great & no skip, but this one's probably one of my Top 200 all-time faves:

April 11th – A song you like from one of your favourite albums post COVID-19 [Challenged by Tafty³³³]

 

The highly anticipated debut album by CamelPhat, Dark Matter, was released in 2022 and featured all their hits up to that point, as well as this one with Jem Cooke which was a stunner. Hopefully it won’t be long before they have another chart hit again.

 

CamelPhat & Jem Cooke – Silenced

My favourite track from Voyage apart from Don’t Shut Me Down. Musically it’s great and catchy and ends with a lovely homage to SOS. It’s the storytelling that really makes it super-special though.

 

It’s from the point of view of a mum leaving her son with her ex who’s his father for the weekend. Outwardly she just tells him to keep an eye on Dan and that she’ll collect him on Sunday, but it becomes clear from her inner narrative that she still loves her ex. In the final chorus her ex joins in very softly and you hear a male voice in the background, and the hidden lyrics make it clear that he still loves her too.

 

Will pick a non single from Miley's Plastic Hearts album and her collab with Billy Idol on 'Night Crawling'. One of the highlights. Didn't disappoint for me!

Although 'The Forever Story' may have been released in 2022, a big chunk of the hip-hop classic was apparently recorded during the pandemic in 2020! Very, very strange times....

Day 11: I associate the pandemic mostly with albums that sound a bit like Folklore - that kind of slow, quiet feeling of everything coming to a stop. So I've gone for this gorgeous track by Clairo :wub:

 

Day 11 - song from a post covid album

 

Very few albums from this decade so far have become absolute mainstays on rotation in full for me (although Future Nostalgia, Voyage, and What The Future Holds will probably join my all-time faves) but one that absolutely has is Build A Problem by dodie, from 2021.

 

Hard to pick a favourite album track, but Rainbow is absolutely beautiful.

 

No idea how this works, first time I've seen this thread, but do I just post my entry here, like so?

 

 

I've always been a sucker for a song that tells a story and this one is told beautifully!

Two people fighting over Miles Cyrus for the same day… and they are my fellow 21st Century moderators… :thinking: How should I decide this one?

 

Oops didn’t realise it had to be a different artist. :lol: I’ll change :kink:
