Kodaline - Perfect World

A: Kodaline
S: Perfect World

Throwback to the summer five years ago, which was much more of a summer, in Berlin at least. The debut by the young Dublin quartet, whose speciality is the gusty, disconsolate anthem,  charted at #1 and hun around the top 10 for months, because Kodaline had already mastered the craft of piling chorus upon unshakable chorus.

... I always knew you had a heavy heart.

Forza Italia, forza Modica. This most beautifal Italian ballad is everything you need for this summer's second half, no matter where you are, but especially if you have trip planned to Sicilia in later on.

... parliamo senza parole.

Lissie - Wild West (Twin Peaks Version)

A: Lissie

Lissie's debut Catching A Tiger boasted some venerable personnel - collaborators of Tom Waits and Modest Mouse, among others - and her impressively yarling voice, which got her discovered. My Wild West, her first album on her own label released last year, is full of sturdily crafted but MOR songs.

... I wanna fall forever if you ain't by my side.

One of the most obvious singles on Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN. is Loyalty. It’s one of the only tracks to feature a superstar guest vocalist - Rihanna, who also qualifies as the album’s only guest rapper - and it’s got that undeniable summer jam vibe about it. So it’s about time the track is getting a music video.
