If you know me even a little bit, chances are I've tried to get you to watch the television show The Americans. For those unaware of this show (currently in its fifth season, Tuesdays at 10pm on FX), it stars the long-underrated Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys as a couple living in Northern Virginia who happen to be Soviet spies in the early 1980's.
Seriously, the best show on television.

19 April 2017 - Kiesza - Hideaway
Visually, I am a fan of one-take videos, and this is one of them. It's more impressive that Kiesza is doing all this dancing and moving and the manhandling she gets at 3:40... with a very recently broken rib. When she's hailing that cab at the end of the video, she is GENUINELY exhausted.
But this isn't strictly a video blog. It's a blog about musical pleasure, and this song delivers. It's a bright, emotional throwback to a sound not heard in 20 years - something not entirely out of place in a dance club in 1993. A tribute to a simpler time, it doesn't have a letdown throughout. Enjoy this treasure, because music like this isn't common anymore.

14 April 2017 - Lone Justice - Ways To Be Wicked
This song popped up on a Spotify playlist of mine, and it had been a long, long time since I had heard it.
