Music is not dead! 🎶 "Material Lover" by Sienna Spiro is the song I'll always remember from last summer, so I bought the 7" vinyl, unboxed it and played it for you. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it, and it turns out it was written for The Devil Wears Prada 2.
Then I take it to the piano to show you why it works so well: the D sus that doesn't go where you expect, a melody that lands right on the root (that's daring!), a move to G major just one step round the circle of fifths, and her vibrato, a little bit sharp like in the blues. And in 20 years this record will still sound exactly the same, long after your streaming subscription has gone. ❤️
