English white chick takes on US R&B and wins. Mention Amy Winehouse, and the knee-jerk cognoscenti say "Adele." But not me--I intone "Alice Russell."

My weekly jones for Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings has arrived early--"Something's Changed:" perfect Old School R&B in insisted-upon analogue glory.

This one goes out to Rand Paul, who, asked about BP's culpability in the gulf oil spill, said "Accidents Happen." Stay delusional, Rand.

The greatest living male singer, regardless of genre, is Jimmy Scott. Look beyond the androgyny and savor the 3:00 AM sadness we all secretly carry...

Must. Stop. Playing. Sharon Jones. And The Dap-Kings. Just past noon, and I've chewed my way through most their discography. Next stop--Mark Ronson...

"Holocaust," by Big Star: "Everybody goes / Leaving those who fall behind / Everybody goes / As far as they can / They don't just care." Thanks, Alex.

My favorite rock song--nothing else has come close. A three-chord meditation on the inexorable passage of time and a steadfast belief in no regrets.

John Winston Lennon: The Dakota, New York City, December 8, 1980.

From Anjani Thomas' exquisite Blue Alert collection--much like Neil Tennant, she creates a love song that's incidentally gay. Words by Leonard Cohen.

From Overcome By Happiness, the best chamber pop since Big Star's Sister Lover. Like Loaded-era-VU collided with The Beatles and a Bacharach horn coda

Max Richter, Franz Kafka, Tilda Swinton: My kind of sonic menage a trois. Richter's music exists in a perpetual late autumn--a resonant PermaNovember.

Close-held pop secret: the best Elton John aren't those inescapable singles. This is a song about male vulnerability--an anti-rap song, if you will...

A song for both sides of the Iran conflict--an admonishment to those in power and a caution to those who would take control. As if it mattered.
