New Countdown: Caught Up


Kings of Leon


And with this, I am officially as caught up as I can be on countdowns! It's because of my own rules that I have to wait until Saturday before I record (Artist of the Month!) but it still feels great. I hope you've been enjoying the avalanche of countdowns! Is this what a smorgasbord looks like?

Enjoy!

Top Ten Tuesday: DJ Khaled featuring Rihanna and Bryson Tiller "Wild Thoughts"

This is quite a steamy video, but fairly straightforward. I wonder if we'll look back in 20 years and shake our heads in wonder at the phenomenon of DJ Khaled.

Also, this song uses the guitar part from "Maria, Maria" by Santana (featuring Wyclef Jean and The Product G&B) which was #1 back in April of 2000. I will include the video for that below as well!

New Countdown: Front Loaded


Muse

This episode starts with a long song (but a GREAT song) followed almost immediately by a rather long intro. So it's a little front loaded, but I think it's a great episode and the songs are really fun!

New Countdown: Peak Cold


Rag'n'Bone Man

Hey it's Father's Day! Happy Father's Day to all Fathers out there. And Father Figures. And anyone who feels like this day is a day that's special to them! It is! And you're doing a great job. Being a parent isn't always easy, and I know I'm always wishing I could be a better Dad, but I know that, as long as I keep striving to improve, I'll be ok.

So....how about a new countdown? Sounds good. Enjoy!

New Countdown: Tay Kyerye Guys

Oh and enjoy the episode :)

Top Ten Tuesday: Zedd & Alessia Cara "Stay"

Wow. This video was really engaging. I like the song very much, but the video was an engaging and entertaining thing to watch. I really loved it. Glad this is in the Top Ten!

New Countdown: The Way The Whole Thing Ends


The Revivalists

Don't panic! The title is a reference to something and also to the end of the month of May (yeah, chart dates are weird. Believe me, I know :) ). I wouldn't put such a clickbaity title if it actually reflected me hanging up my hat. Which I guess is kind of weird. Like, "If you see something like that, know that it's probably me not being serious about it."

Enjoy!

Top Ten Tuesday: Post Malone featuring Quavo "Congratulations"

This is a very catchy and listenable song! I love TTT because it exposes me to music I wouldn't otherwise give a shot. This one was fun and the video is somehow very sweet
