I was at a loss this week – too many balls in the air and I didn’t have time to listen to all the new track submissions – I was starting to feel overwhelmed and anxious about the whole thing and before I knew it, balls were dropping making me feel even worse and suddenly I’m on this whole downward spiral… Sound familiar?…
There were a lot of one hit wonders in the 60s and 70s. Often, that one hit solidified a musician or group’s place in the annals of music history. Sacramento, California’s own Spiral Staircase released “More Today Than Yesterday” in 1969 and it reached #7 on the Billboard Hot 100…
I’ve loved curating this list for the last month and there’s still one more track to go! 😉 The major themes have all been about us – us humans – how we interact with each other – how we tackle our seemingly insurmountable problems and how songs can help us do these things.

Entering the playlist this week is none other than the talented INNA with her 2013 smash hit “More Than Friends” The track delivers with it a brilliant blend of dance + summer + fun vibes…
Some people say there is nothing better than the original. Sometimes that’s not always the case. Because cover songs have become quite popular. If you like cover songs or an Aaliyah fan then check this track out. A great take on a Aaliyah Cover! She has some notable stuff going on in her career, shes worth having a listen to!..
