Multi-Hyphenate Actor, Recording Artist, and Filmmaker Amir Royale Drops Seductive Single “Pruane” (feat. Lulu Kirtchuk and Devereaux)
From Amir Royale I’ve tasted toxicity. I’ve lusted after romance in a way that may have been unhealthy for a couple of years. I’ve misunderstood cues during intimacy before but have also had partners not reciprocate my passion or attention to detail. “Pruane” is about being in that center space between ‘DTF buddies’ and ‘soulmates.’ That unspoken sense of attachment intertwined with the minutiae of apathy. Somewhere smack in the middle of possessive and protective, sexual and sensual, in-love and out of it. We search for the love we think we deserve – and the people that are right for us; we often overlook or undervalue them. Maybe one day I’ll finally start getting all this stuff right. ‘Til then, I’m content sitting still. Walk good, take care. 🌺❤️🩹🌺

For the last couple of years, there’s been a new experience to music by getting the chance to listen to your favorite song for the first time with a different edit. If you were to go on the internet and type in a favorite song of yours, there is no doubt you'll find that song has been re-edited to be reverbed with a slowed audio.
Samantha ParrishPublished about a year ago in BeatWhy "Bad Dreams" by Cannons is a relationship closure song
The thing about music is that you choose what you take away from it. I've talked about Cannons before and how they impacted the music scene to make a name for themselves through the pandemic. Fire For You is a great tune about how drained you feel putting your energy into someone who wouldn't do the same. Hurricane is a fantastic anthem about making a comeback, but Bad Dreams doesn't get enough credit for how it's a softer and stronger song than the rest.

Mike Singleton - MikeydredPublished about a year ago in BeatClassic Song Review: Learning to Listen to 'Voices Carry'
Aimee Man is a brilliant songwriter and clearly always has been. My thesis statement for that admittedly not very bold claim is the 1984 song, Voices Carry, performed by Aimee's then band Til Tuesday. In many ways, this is a classic pop song. It has the structure and the strengths of a great pop song. You can, as I did for so many years, passively enjoy Voices Carry as a classic example of 80's pop music. Listening to it today however, and with the context of the incredibly simple but effective music video, you find layers and layers of relationship lore and a narrative of casual abuse that is carefully and brilliantly layered into this four minute pop song.

These days, it seems that memes serve as my Willy Wonka, guiding me through the whimsical factory of the internet and showing me what musical dreams lie beyond the sizzling veil of the digital screen. As Charlie failed to understand the business espionage implications of an everlasting gobstopper, so too do I scratch my head at Tik Tok; though in a reversal of roles, Charlie had stepped into the puzzling world of the generation before him, whereas I stare in stupefaction at the generation that's come after me. That is, of course, if the roles themselves stay consistent.

Is Walking 500 Miles (And Then 500 Miles More) Really Romantic?
I love The Proclaimers. Really, I do. Craig and Charlie Reid. They are Scottish. They are twins. They are fantastic singers, write beautiful pop songs, often with very pointed socio-political lyrics and have at least one bonafide end-of-party singalong anthem in "I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)".

We listen to music to create our own stories or add to a story we like, to make all these stories within our head, and solely use the music as the generator of these stories.

Habits are powerful forces that shape our behavior, often in ways we may not even be aware of. The book "The Power of Habit" by Charles Duhigg explores the science behind habit formation and how we can intentionally shape our habits to achieve our goals. One example that Duhigg uses to illustrate the power of habit is the song "Hey Ya!" by OutKast as a tool for habit formation in the context of a football team. In this essay, I will examine the use of "Hey Ya!" as a habit-forming tool and explore the broader implications of intentional habit formation for individuals and organizations.

Introduction I was listening to "True Stories" by The Talking Heads and the song "City of Dreams" is absolutely gorgeous. Then I started thinking that would be a great theme for a playlist and losts of songs popped into my head that are about cities or reference cities.
