Wow I had no idea about the Band Aid song! Very interesting. Thanks for this Ryan. "Head Over Heels" is one of those classic songs I can't get enough of despite its age.
Glad to have PUP back, they've released 3 perfect records IMO... the last one in particular being my favorite. I can't wait to see them in NYC this Spring. All that said, I can't say I'm crazy about this song but maybe it'll grow on me. That album cover is batshit haha
Agreed, both releases have their own vibes and great songs that I still repeatedly return to depending on the mood I'm in. I go back and forth. Someone here also mentioned "Live at Kilmainham Gaol" which is great for if you're in the mood to hear both records!
As for Shame, their first record did nothing for me, but the second one is still a great listen.
Finished listening. The album kiiiinda lags a little (was hoping for a few more bangers), and like if you're going to have Lil Wayne on a track, you better make sure it really hits (and honestly, he didn't seem like a great fit on this album). But that's all a minor complaint. This is The Weeknd's best album to date. Great stuff.
Listening to it for the first time as we speak. "Sacrifice" is an early highlight for me. As is "How Do I Make You Love Me?" I never really got into full albums of his (I've dug a lot of songs here and there over the years, but as cohesive statements, his albums have been lagging for me) but so far, to my ears, this is the best thing he's done. Just gotta change that terrible album cover though.
All around in my home town
They're trying to lock me down
They say they want to bring me the vaccine
For the health of humanity
To end the COVID-19, but I say
I sued some lady
But I sued her for some old CD

Hmm. At first I thought that about Harmonia, but man, second chorus and the harmonies really make it stand out from those to me. Not to mention the last like, minute-plus when it breaks down.
