Beyond Radio is the place where music discovery and music nostalgia collide. It is your one-stop source for playlists, music charts, remembrances and recommendations. Our Podcast and music therapy playlists combine elements of nostalgia and discovery, while my blog entries reflect on our musical past through the lens of my personal charts from decades past. I weave a story that includes the connection between artists, chart facts and personal anecdotes that hopefully conjure a connection to the soundtrack of your own life. The current charts and playlists are updated monthly or bi-monthly (bi-weekly for the BR250) and are curated based on a passionate audience that produce their own personal charts weekly.
Paradise Trending, The Cure for Drowning in your Bad Habits, and a Podcast
On the Trending 100 the top 4 songs are all in this weeks BR250 top 10. Led by Ed Sheeran’s “Bad Habits” which moves up to #7 on the BR250, it’s the return of Robert Smith from the seminal alt band The Cure that lands at #2 on both charts. Chvrches’ collab “How Not To Drown” has the right ingredients to make a splash, though it is far behind the juggernaut “Good 4 U” at #1 on the BR250. Lorde used her solar power to land at #3 trending and #4 on the main chart. Rounding out the top 4 on the Trending chart is no stranger to the upper reaches of either chart. Dua Lipa’s “Love Again” becomes the ninth song from the Moonlight Edition of her powerhouse album “Future Nostalgia” to make the Trending top 5.
On the podcast front the latest episode is called Paradise Theater. In this episode after a 3 month hiatus, and the final in the Podcast-list 006 arc (before our top 10’s), we explore a bit of where popular music and theater meet. Artists like the Dear Hunter, Styx and Panic At The Disco all fit into certain aspects of this. We throw a little Sade, Fiona Apple and Beck into the mix and of course a couple of tangents. What seemed, at first, to be a shorter episode, ended up with 2 false endings. In the end, even though Billie Eilish could have killed the party, it all ends on a super cool joyous note.
