The countdown continues, from 5 to 2… 5. Mabel – Don’t Call Me Up Released: 18th JanuaryWriters: Kamille, Mabel, Steve MacTrivia: This song basically has the same concept as Telephone by Gaga and Beyoncé, which I (very rightly) chose as my no.1 most poptastic song of 2010. Let’s hope for more sassy call-rejecting anthems in the decade ahead.Best bits: 1….
It feels a bit wrong choosing this as the most poptastic single of 2019, because it’s more country than pop, but it would be equally wrong not to put The Highwomen in the top spot because they are by far my most listened-to act of the year, and I can’t miss an opportunity to make you all listen to…

All white guys look the same…
Songs 2-4 switched places endlessly while I was compiling my top 10 this year, but the no.1 never changed. In fact, I was 99% sure Rain On Me would be my no.1 from the first time I heard it. There was a lot riding on this song and Chromatica as a whole when it was released. We had faced…
Review by: David Hurwitz Artistic Quality: 9 Sound Quality: 9 Complete recordings of Bartók’s alternately spooky and violent ballet The Miraculous Mandarin have become almost as common as those of its proximate inspiration, Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring. It’s no longer unusual to hear even “second tier” orchestras play the work splendidly, and aside from a certain lack of projection…
Review by: Jed Distler Artistic Quality: 9 Sound Quality: 8 Swan Hennessy (1866-1929) was born near Chicago, studied in Stuttgart as a teenager, and eventually made his way to Paris in 1903, where he lived for the rest of his life. His idiomatic and well-crafted piano music is hard to pigeonhole, although pianist Moritz Ernst’s excellent and informative annotations…
