Fleet Foxes and Resistance Revival Chorus - Can I Believe You from Shore on Colbert, 2020
A beautiful, hopeful (not naive) record for right now - perfectly captured in this performance.
I love how Robin Pecknold doesn’t sing in the church just the Resistance Revival Chorus.
Hamilton: An American Musical, 2015
We watched this a couple weeks ago on Disney + and I could not believe how deeply it moved me. Hamilton is one of the most incredible pieces of art I have seen in any medium. We watched the play on a television screen, completely removed from the ‘room where it happened’ and it was still unbelievable. The wheels within wheels of meta-representation is staggering. Perhaps the most impactful aspect of the play is the simplest. Telling a white American origin story through the language of hip-hop played exquisitely by black and brown Americans. Lin Manuel Miranda, his original cast and crew are geniuses. The United States can still be a shining light on a hill when our best and brightest produce work like Hamilton.

This is America - Childish Gambino, 2018
THIS SHIT IS MONUMENTAL.
Leigh and I spent the first couple times, each, not being able to take our eyes off of him.
Then we just watched what was happening behind him.
He is in full flow through all his crafts in this one.
Musically, the two tracks interweave between positive/negative dichotomy. Total Monsters.
Light and Dark. Good and Evil. Yin and Yang. Flow Personified.
Lyrically it is sparce and beautiful.
This is a masterpiece.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
