Track of the week 25/12/16
It could be argued that the final “track of the week” for ’16 should feature one of the fallen heroes – it does seem like a disproportionate amount of talent has passed this year; just in the last couple of days, Rick Parfitt from Satus Quo and George Micheal have moved on. I only just discovered that Greg Lake, who penned one of my favourite Christmas songs – I Believe in Father Christmas, dies on 7th December.
But no, my final track of the week is a bit of a surprise, and neatly emphasises why I do this – songs pop in and out of my head all the time, for a while they’ll be at the top of my playlist but then drift back into the obscurity that is my mind. This track is one that I’ve been aware of without really knowing it and then, today, whilst spinning in a vein attempt to burn off some Christmas excesses this track kicked in. I must admit, I thought it was little mix, but Sophie quickly identified it as Icona Pop (must have been my excellent rendition!)
Don’t know if they are a “cool” group, but I like this track, and that’s good enough for me.
