New golden nuggets or throwback classics... This is what I listened to and enjoyed in 2024.
-
Pa Sheehy
My old friend John has arrived, and he's singing for over five minutes now.
-
Pa Sheehy
I don’t know where I’ll go but I’m going.
-
Snow Patrol
All I need is everything.
-
Linkin Park
The crown is heavy. Just like this song.
-
Snow Patrol
Everything's Here and Nothing's Lost. Sums up the future quite perfectly.
-
Jeangu Macrooy
I thought I would be Happier. Ah well...
-
Linkin Park
I never knew Linkin Park was the music I should have listened to way more often. It's not too late, though.
-
Taj Farrant
A guitar prodigy that's so good it almost makes you give up your own playing.
-
YUNGBLUD
If you have a breakdown, it'd better be like YUNGBLUD's.
-
Elton John
I guess that's why they call it the blues.
-
Greyson Chance
Greyson's start towards a new album is as Greyson as you can get. I dig it.
-
R.E.M.
Everybody Hurts, sometimes. And even when all seems right, this song is legendary.
-
Snow Patrol
The Beginning, the first new song after six years. Damn, can't wait for more Snow Patrol in my ears.
-
Ben Forte
I know, it's Dutch, and maybe you don't understand a word. But it's Ben Forte.
-
Greyson Chance
Remember that kid on YouTube covering Paparazzi by Lady Gaga? This is him now. Or a while ago, actually.
-
Kansas
The Absence of Kansas is actually something I couldn't live without.
-
Nothing But Thieves
They need one more album to become legends. Or are two sold-out shows in one of the largest venues in The Netherlands good enough already?
-
Various Artists, Howard Shore
Annie Lennox and Into the West is all I need from time to time. Emotions all over the place. Now I need a free weekend to rewatch all three movies.
-
Jack & Tim
Brittain's Got Talent got them started. Now I'm just waiting until they start to tour the world. Can't be long now.
-
Jamey Johnson, Jamey Johnson Official
You should have seen it In Color, you know?
-
Eclipse
Actually, just Viva La Victoria on repeat. In the shower.
-
Sabaton
A metal band singing about war might be the most interesting thing you will hear today.
-
Linkin Park
Even after all those years, still going strong. Chapeau.
-
DI-RECT
Dutch bands don't come any better.
-
James Blunt
There is more beyond the world of You're Beautiful. What do you mean, one-hit-wonder?
-
Amaranthe
A little bit of power metal never killed anyone.
-
Elton John
Saw a theater show by a Dutch covering artist. I thought all hit songs were performed before the break. Then after the break, I started wondering how many hit songs one can write.
-
Vangelis
You've probably heard this score, but never knew who made it. Now you do.
