0X1=LOVESONG (#686)

Ahoy,

a bit more on time with this week's entry...

My last week in covers:

Most played artists:

• Madonna : Fan times. I found a remix of "I Don't Search I Find" very entertaining - it's the Kue Remix, that has a retro disco vibe.
  
• Lea Porcelain : New album context. So "Choirs To Heaven" is out now... but I'm not sure how much I dig it tbh.
  
• Aly & AJ : Fan times.
• Goo Goo Dolls : Flashback times. I was listening to the complete album "Something For The Rest Of Us" - and I still like it a lot.
  
• Jazmine Sullivan : Hype context. I've read two positive reviews of "Heaux Tales", so I thought I should give it a go. But no, the music is not my cup of tea. Very old school R&B.  

Most played tracks:

• BTS - Butter : Compared to the first official (Hotter) remix, I like the original version better. :)

Noteworthy:

• Easy Life : New album context. Unfortunately I did not have a good time listening to "life's a beach". :-/
  
• J. Cole : New album (and hype) context. Tbh "The Off-Season" is so not my cup of tea.
  
• Livingmore : New album context. "Take Me" starts strong, but the last tracks seemed a bit weak. I guess, I'll give it another try soon.
  
• Twenty One Pilots : New album context. "Scaled And Icy" seemed (just) okay.
  

Scrobble count:  173.793
