 I never imagined the three words in the title would make sense but thanks to the fantastic Marcel Vanthilt and his equally amazing M Show on Radio Willy (no kidding!) I can give you this. This will make you happy, no matter what! Best music video I have seen this year by far.  I do miss the old MTV Europe where this would be on high rotation for sure. Altın Gün - Yüce Dağ Başında https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhDfOYn0118

 I discovered this band through Jools Holland and then came across their NPR tiny desk session.  Just a few weeks ago this band released a fantastic song.  So I cam across a song that's fresh, weird, ethereal yet strong.  And that is remarkable compared to the massive amount of mediocre music releases lately. Obviously, I am the last man on earth. Wolf Alice - The Last Man On Earth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzH6toY_EPw

This song is like the theme song to a 60s TV series.  I would start a podcast only to use this song as the intro.  A great soundscape for when hipster coffee bars reopen again.  You need a huge loft to play this in. The video somehow reminds me of Twin Peaks. Orions Belte - Lotus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2aF68QwnnQ

 Time for some Americana, because we all need to share our heartbreaks now and then.  Zac Brown has been so kind to poor that sentiment into today's song.  This run of the mill music score blended with a fantastic voice and entertaining lyrics.  Sometimes, that is all you need.   I love the acapella intro!  Zac Brown Band - I Hate To See Good Whiskey Go To Waste https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWmYBob617U
