Jio's HoF :NOW:WEEKLY PICKS (10/5/2022)

[jio]

The lyrics are also cool... worth a listen. I enjoy their playfulness. Should be climbing next week

[trebor]

Yes! at you charting Brandon Lay. The tune is pretty cool, nice overall vibe and guitar. Like it a lot!
Might be the track to get his breakthrough. EMI Nashville has it as a priority release and radio is responding well.

Hey Sergej (I assume that's your name). It is actually Dua's first ever hit in my charts, granted my chart is not that old but it is the first song of hers I ever like so there you have it... Based on what I listen to these days she could be #1 next week...

[sergejdordij98]

It sounds pretty '90s. I am aware of it for sometime but it took a while for me to like it. Firstly it sounded like noise, then like melodic noise, then melody and now a great song lol

Yeah the vocals are a bit off but the song is great (although it strongly reminds me of something I can't quite pinpoint). I am not really a fan of the Boomtown Rats' hit songs but I do enjoy this one quite a lot.

Boomtown Rats making a comeback, not sure if I enjoy the vocal, overall it's alright.
