nanci griffith’s “storms” is a dream pop album as much as it’s still a “country” record - here’s why [1/25577]

Tom & Jada on the set of Collateral

Sixteen years ago, one man stood alone on a grassy hill at a music festival in Washington State, USA, and started dancing by himself. People glanced over and looked away. Some laughed. His roommate leaned in and warned him people were filming him. He did not stop. Then one stranger got up and joined him. Then another. Then the hillside tipped. Within minutes, hundreds of people were sprinting from across the field to be part of something that, thirty seconds earlier, had been one man being laughed at in a field. Someone filming from higher up the hill said quietly: "See what one man can do. One man can change the world." The clip spread across the internet in 2009. Entrepreneur Derek Sivers played it at a TED conference to explain how movements actually begin. Not with the first person brave enough to start, he argued, but with the first person willing to join them. Collin Wynter, the man dancing alone, later said he had no idea he had done anything special. He was just tired of watching everyone sit still.

The Prodigy’s ‘Firestarter’ turns 30 today 🖤 
Released on XL Recordings in 1996, the track became one of the defining records of the decade. Its iconic video, directed by Walter Stern and filmed in a disused London Underground tunnel, remains one of the most recognisable visuals of the 90s. 
The stark, black-and-white shoot wasn’t the first video made for the track. An earlier, higher-budget version had already been filmed but was ultimately scrapped, leading the band back to a stripped-back concept that placed Keith Flint front and centre and captured the performance that would come to define the record. 
Firestarter went on to top the UK charts for three weeks and became a worldwide hit.

if you try playing the Sensual World on acoustic guitar it just sounds like God Put a Smile Upon Your Face by Coldplay
