On That Note: New ’22

[cyclones500]

Welcome back to "On That Note," CF’s weekly hub for music-listening & discussion, hosted by @MeanDean, @CycloneRulzzz and me, cyclones500.

For this segment, we focus on favorite songs you encountered in 2022.

That includes any/all of the following:

1. New music released in 2022 (and final month or so of ’21)
2. Music released prior to that, but you didn’t discover until this year.
3. Favorites from the distant past that you revisited frequently during past 12 months.

(Optional: If it’s No. 2 or 3, include a note with your clip regarding the time frame/details/back story.)

A couple of my top songs coming in a follow-up post.

Cheers to a year in music!

• In case you missed it … Last week’s OTN: Slip Slidin’ Away

Several of my first posts are at top rotation in my "new music 2022" Spotify list.

A couple to get us going.

From “Wild Loneliness" by Superchunk (LP released Feb. 25, 2022). This is the opening track.



Second on my current new-music Spotify list

From “Cruel Country,” released May 27, 2022.

Brand new from Carla Bruni (wife of France's ex-President Sarkozy) and Maître Gims...

Demain tout ira mieux (tomorrow everything will be better)

Side note: Some of my selections were inspired directly by posts in OTN, and what I consider “Cousin of On That Note” (link below)

What music are you listening to right now?

I feel like there are quite a few music aficionados on CF and I have even discovered new bands on here. I wanted to start a thread where we could share what we are currently listening to and just talk music. I couldn't find another thread like this but admittedly I haven't used the search...

I try to keep a list of CF members who steer me toward new music, but I can’t always verify accuracy (and I don’t want to omit anyone, either).

If I'm confident about who was the source, I'll note it when appropriate.

Been obsessed with this song the last month or so. It just haunts me. I got it on a boxed set of 60's obscurities.

I posted it on a previous OTN.

More brand-new French pop... "Évidemment" (Obviously)

My mom had a grand collection of 78 rpms, including this one...(hadn't heard it for YEARS)

Picked up a couple Eddie Cochran singles to fill in some holes in my collection about a month ago.

Another from Mom's collection (cheeze, yeah, these were spicy in the day)
