The Everly Brothers - lay lady lay cover, 1984

"Don Everly of the Everly Brothers recounted in a 1986 Rolling Stone interview that Dylan performed parts of the song for them after a late 1960s appearance by the duo in New York, as they were "looking for songs, and he was writing 'Lay Lady Lay' at the time." Despite a popular story that the Everly Brothers rejected the song due to misunderstanding the lyrics as sexual in nature, Everly continued "He sang parts of it, and we weren't quite sure whether he was offering it to us or not. It was one of those awestruck moments." In a 1994 interview Don Everly further explained the encounter, stating that "It really wasn't a business meeting ... It wasn't that kind of atmosphere." The Everly Brothers later covered the song on their EB 84 album, 15 years after Dylan's release."

António Macedo - canta amigo canta erguer a voz e cantar, 1974

"Um nome maior da Música Popular Portuguesa, hoje em dia um tanto esquecido do grande público, mas que compôs um tema dos mais emblemáticos associado à Revolução dos Cravos. Quem não se lembra de "Canta Amigo Canta - Erguer a Voz e Cantar", uma canção que era muitas vezes entoada nos comícios e em outras reuniões partidárias. Há muito que António Macedo merece a edição da sua obra no formato CD, não só as suas gravações registadas em vários 45 rpm, como as que musicou para outros artistas, e, entre eles estão as cantoras Helena Afonso e Lídia Rita."

Paul McCartney And Paul Simon - i've just seen a face live, 2015

The Style Council - life at a top people's health farm, 1988

"Jeremy Corbyn, politician - Your music has often been cited as an inspiration by those seeking positive social change. What or who most inspired you as a voice for change? - Hmm. The Beatles. They changed my life, the Beatles. They totally changed my thinking. I started to think outside of my little bubble in my little suburban town. I wanted to see the rest of the world. I wanted to see other things."

The Mamas And The Papas - look through my window, 1967

"The song was inspired by the fact that although John thought Michelle was out in California, she in fact was just blocks away in Greenwich Village."

Jessie Buckley And Bernard Butler - footnotes on the map live, 2022

Released on 17 June 2022 by EMI Records, it was preceded by the release of the singles "The Eagle & the Dove", "Seven Red Rose Tattoos", the title track "For All Our Days That Tear the Heart", and "Footnotes on the Map"."

Bee Gees - if only i had my mind on something else, 1970

"Splendid ballad side that comes out fresh, rather than a parody of the original Bee Gees. This stunning performance, both vocal and instrumental, and a less obscure lyric should take the team back into the good graces of the teens with explosive sales results."

Work Wife - apathy, 2022

"This new single from Work Wife is a beautiful indie folk-pop song with catchy guitars and vocals that can get to you, deep down to your soul. I am enjoying it very much. It is Friday, a tough work week is almost over and this feels like balsam on my wounds. I sometimes wonder how my life would look like if there was no music in it. I guess it would be very sad and gloomy. Fortunately, there are songs like this that can make your days better."

Simon And Garfunkel - the sound of silence live, 1981

"Simon wrote "The Sound of Silence" when he was 21 years old, later explaining that the song was written in his bathroom, where he turned off the lights to better concentrate."

Pet Shop Boys - dancing star, 2024

"The synth-pop legends will release new album ‘Nonetheless’ on April 26th, revisiting their classic relationship with Parlophone in the process. New single ‘Dancing Star’ is out now, and it’s typically sublime – Pet Shop Boys have never let us down, but equally their current work contains much to adore. Infused with those decades of experience, there’s also a sense of shimmering light, and supple nuance. ‘Dancing Star’ twitches with energy and hope, the lyrics prompted by the life of the ballet dancer, Rudolf Nureyev. A true artist, the ballet icon defected from the Soviet Union, embracing freedom in both his life and practise to become a global icon. The song has a theatrical feel, with Pet Shop Boys yearning for the stage, for the rush of body movement."

REM - all i have to do is dream cover, 1987

"A cover of the Everly Brothers’ 1958 doo-wop lullaby, REM’s version of ‘All I Have To Do Is Dream’ sees the band at their most tender and – going by the footage below – their most adorable. Seriously, how cute is Michael Stipe here in with his dodgy bleach job and backwards postboy cap?"

The Flaming Lips - race for the prize, 1999

"The only Flaming Lips album I’ve listened to is The Soft Bulletin, but Race for the Prize is by far my favorite song on it. At first the drums caught my attention but I love pretty much every aspect of its production, and it has a lot of emotional weight for me (my interpretation is the cure for cancer, probably not what it actually is lol but it means a lot to me). Any similar songs, or is it kinda its own thing? Even if it is, I’d still appreciate a recommendation for the next album I should listen to :)"

Neil Young And Crazy Horse - psychedelic pill alternate mix three twelve, 2012

"it has the roiling honesty and brutal exuberance of their best records."

The Mary Onettes - juna, 2016

"Back in 2012, I stumbled across a song instantly That Became one of my all time favorites. It was mind-blowing. The track in question was Love’s Taking Strange Ways by indie-pop band The Mary Onettes. Already in those times, the Swedish four-piece were a cornerstone of Labrador Records and much they did also after the release of that Love Forever EP. But today they have returned with something really special: a collaboration with US label Cascine for their new single Juna, which serves also as the main theme of a major TV campaign, called Cool Robot, for Oxford here in Europe. More than anything else, Juna sounds as massive as expected, a sparkling synth-driven tune with a robust, delightful pop edge. Listen to the song and watch the campaign’s trailer below."

Sleep Radio - unfield, 2023

"Been waiting for this"
