Post a song that you're hearing for the first time and like a lot.

I'll start with Bonny Light Horseman's The Roving released in 2020. Glad I found them.

Hope you like it.

Now it's your turn.

1. Just a demo recording sung by a 10yo girl

who is nothing short of a musical genius.

[tenderfoot]

3. WOW!

That's impressive!

[blm]

6. Was never released by production team.

My guess is that no singer thought they could do it better than the demo, but, there was no way Angelina’s mother would allow it to be released under her name. The song sits in limbo.

12. THAT

Was epic. What a mature voice. Thanks for the share.

2. Somehow I made it to 67 without hearing this from Moondog.

First experienced it a few weeks ago. Absolutely wonderful.

[tenderfoot]

5. Nice.

[NotASurfer]

4. This has been stuck in my head going on two weeks

Never heard it before two weeks ago. Either it's brilliantly satirical or there's something horribly wrong with me

[tenderfoot]

7. I think it's high satire...

I like what I've heard of the Mountain Goats but don't think I'll add this track to my playlist. LOL.

8. From 12/15/74 but I first heard it a couple of weeks ago streaming KLCC.

[blm]

16. 😎

9. Sometimes I'm not the hippest of cats...apparently this came out in 2015...

and I just heard it on a TV show. Paused the show to buy it immediately, listened to it incessantly, and now it's on regular rotation on the random radio in my head.

[blm]

10. Really cool

[leighbythesea2]

15. I like this

Stuff that comes through different mediums like tv shows etc, for me---is often a bit older (5 to 7 years) too.

(spotify gives you more of what you like, & that's not always a stretch, right?)

The discovery is so wonderful!

11. Play with Fire Sam Tinnesz ft Yatch Money

Just a note, would consider this a sexy song. Or maybe you just like fire.
If you dont want to listen to all, these spots are interesting.


0:36 the beat drops
1:00 just cool
2:11 Her voice!

13. I've been doing that, tenderfoot, since DFW mentioned

the German band Die Toten Hosen as a band very popular in Europe but virtually unknown here. I immediately looked at their YouTube videos, saw one with a title I understood though I've forgotten most of my college German, and by chance that was their biggest hit. Just one listen and I was hooked. I listen to a lot of music, but I can't recall the last time any song impressed me as much as "Tage Wie Diese."

The band's been around for 40 years, but had their biggest hit only 10 years ago, and they're still going strong.

This is the video -- which has nearly 70 million views -- and the thread I posted about them here in the Lounge is at https://democraticunderground.com/10181664814 . I've also posted about them in the Music Appreciation group at https://democraticunderground.com/?com=forum&id=1034 and I've linked to pages with the lyrics and English translation in my posts, with more links to background info on the band and songs.

Btw, I do like the song you posted in the OP. And this was a great idea for a Lounge thread.

17. I first heard this one a couple of months ago...from 2015!

Unfortunately, the group doesn’t seem to be active any more.
