M10 2.0.11

 

How about this?  I have time and inclination to do a music post but... no back-up story???  So I guess I'll kinda manufacture a couple of things to go with it.

#10 this week as last week, Beach Bunny's Just Around The Corner.  New at #9 is the Beths...

********************************************************************

So my first thought was, let's see how the Songs of Summer Race is going so far...

t10- Brother Down, Sam Roberts band

     -Forever Overdose, Amira Elfeky

9- Sister, Tennis

8- Broken Hearts, Geowulf

7- Set Me Free, Deradoorian

6- Blow In My Bag, Minus 5

5- Under The Aurora, Counting Crows

4- Here To Stay, Doobie Brothers

3- What I Want, Morgan Wallen/Tate McRae

2- Pink Sky, Real Estate

1- Out Of Our Minds, Melissa Auf der Maur

Our second debut this week at #8, welcome to the M10, the Velvet Sundown...

************************************************************

Much of the current M10 was on the SOS list above, with Pink Sky falling to 7, What I want to 6, Out Of Our Minds to 5; Sister climbing to 4, and Here To Stay to #2.

It's only July, but our current SOS leader would be 19th on the all time SOS list so far.  Here are the previous Songs of Summer...

2016- Tangerine, You'll Always Be Lonely

2017- Foster The People, Sit Next To Me

2018- Jayhawks, Backwards Women

*********************************************

If you've been keeping track, you know we have 2 more songs in this week's M10.  Matt Berry moves up 4 to #3 with Stay On The Ground; and the new #1....

...Geowulf with Broken Hearts, making her/their 6th #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know a lot of the songs I like are sort of obscure, and after my Morgan Wallen stats last week, I thought I'd show you just how obscure.  Here is this weeks M10, ranked by plays on Spotify...
