How does it work? Why does it work? Listen to this.
As a musician, I long bemoaned the absence of commentary that actually talks about how the parts of a song contribute to its appeal. The way the harmony connects chords, the way a change in a drum pattern kicks it into overdrive, the way a vocal harmony warms the feeling by choosing the right notes. .. But this podcast doesn’t demand that you be a musician - although it helps. You just have to listen, and listening is not just hearing. It’s active, and you can learn how in ways that will dramatically enhance your appreciation and enjoyment. Along the way, you’ll find artists, songs, and even genres, you might have ignored. And all delivered with infectious enthusiasm that’s impossible to resist. Give it a try - go back to the early ones and see if you don’t decide to listen to them all! I did.

I listen to tons of podcasts and this has quickly become my favorite. Kirk Hamilton does a brilliant job of pointing out what makes a song unique. He plays snippets of the music himself and it makes me able to hear what I could not hear before. Brilliant and compelling entertainment.

You managed to pick two of my favorite songs and gave me a new found appreciation for them. Love the idea and the podcast, I hope you take suggestions at some point.
