1. Busman’s Holiday - Make Believe (1'23" - 1'33")

from Busman’s Holiday - Popular Cycles (2016)


"These guys’ brilliant storytelling is given the most emotional falsetto chorus. It makes me cry every time I hear this."




2. Jill Scott - Love Rain (Suite) (7'58" - 8'08")

from Jill Scott - Experience: Jill Scott 826+ (2001)

"This refrain comes at the end of a rollercoaster of a poem, mostly just the backing vocalists harmonising the word “love” under a furious percussionist. But Spellbinding it is."




3. Todd Terje - Inspector Norse (3'35" - 3'45")

from Todd Terje - It's The Arps (2012)


"If you’re on the dance floor when this bit hits and you’re not dancing? You belong in grave"




4. Philip Glass, Kristjan Järvi, Charles Colman - Amazon River (4'44" - 5'54")

"You’ve already experienced the lushest, overwhelming, most indulgent rendition of one of Glass’ best compositions, so prepare yourself for a flute solo in this well deserved breakdown."




5. Fleetwood Mac - Only Over You (1'34" - 1'44")

from Fleetwood Mac - Mirage (1982)


"Key change, and When Stevie Nicks says “angel please don’t go/I miss you when you’re gone” It makes the song. It truly does."




6. Moses Sumney - Me in 20 Years (2'20" - 2'30")

from Moses Sumney - Grae (2020)


"This bit right here… oooft. Ooooft. He’s begging you to “hold out a little more” and the truth is at that point you don’t have a choice."




7. John Adams - Harmonielhere Pt 3 (8'39" - 8'49")

from John Adams - I Am Love OST (2010)


"From the I Am Love Soundtrack finale, where Tilda’s character hurriedly packs her bag and runs from her husband to be with her lover. Powerful Scene, powerful bit of music."




8. Led Zeppelin - Dazed And Confused (0'37" - 0'47")

from Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin (1969)


"There have been two parts of my life: Before I heard this particular Tom-Tom drum and guitar squeal, and everything that came after."
