1. Jackie Evans & Vulfmon, "Sleep For Days" (2026): Her original version with a larger ensemble is great too.
2. Frank Sinatra with the Count Basie & the Orchestra, arranged & conducted by Quincy Jones "I've Got You Under My Skin" (1966): It's the 60th anniversary of the performances on the landmark album Sinatra at the Sands. It's quite the time capsule.
3. Thomas Dolby, "Screen Kiss" (1984): Thomas Dolby's more subdued tracks reward close listening.
4. Brad Breeck, "I'm From Another Dimension" (2015): The theme song from Star vs. the Forces of Evil.
5. Carole King, "It's Too Late" (1971): There was a time when I couldn't listen to this break-up song because it was too devastating. I never get tired of the start of the chorus and the way it's set up.
