14. Kate Bush - Wuthering Heights

She was how old when she wrote this?! Prodigy, wunderkind, it all applies. The fact that this wasn’t a one-off underlines her genius.

More than any other show of its time, Star Trek dared - still dares - to imagine something that feels impossible: in the future, leftists and scientists will be able to afford rent in San Francisco

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

15. Planet Telex

This challenge actually made me revisit The Bends, an album I hadn’t listened to in full for something like twenty years, and I had completely forgotten what a banger of an opening track this is.

‘I fell in love with him on the spot’: Alan Rickman remembered, 10 years after his death
On the anniversary of his death aged 69, stars from Sigourney Weaver to Sharleen Spiteri, Tom Felton to Harriet Walter, remember the wit, charm and endless generosity of one of Britain’s best-loved actors

Day 15

Husband and wife, who met at Mali's Institute for the Young Blind. Very sadly we lost Amadou in April last year. This is from the utterly wonderful 2005 album Dimanche A Bamako, produced by Manu Chao.

Portishead's Dummy is one of my top ten albums of all time. I am so lucky I discovered it early, when I am usually late to the party on everything (see: The Warning).

If you love it like I do, you'll enjoy this video.

Fascinating interview, my god what a story. The excerpt from the phone transcript is utterly chilling.
The woman who made her family disappear: how Karen Palmer escaped her abusive husband
He had threatened her, locked her up and absconded with one of their daughters. Palmer knew she and her girls needed to escape – but it would involve huge risk and total reinvention

Can we stop having this stupid debate about whether or not the Trump regime is fascist? There is no longer an argument to be had. It's literally telling us it is.
Non-fascist regimes simply do not put out communiques like this.
