Top 10 Albums of 2010
1. Animal -Ke$ha. She might be the most-successful, yet wildly under-estimated new pop star of the moment. With Animal, Ke$ha has not only put her deft songwriting skills to fine use, she has also been outing a nation of double-standard-spewing bullshitters. How? Well, if we can embrace the hard-partying, sexually-charged fodder of dudes like Flo Rida, Usher, T.I., et al, why are so many folks freaked by a chick getting her swirl on? With each proclamation that Ke$ha is nothing but a drunken skank, naysayers reveal that they probably haven't actually listened to more than the handful of "get-your-freak-on" singles that she's released. Songs like "Blind," "Hungover," "Dancing With Tears In My Eyes," and the heartbreaking "Harold Song" (from the deluxe Cannibal edition) display sensitivity hinting a career that will endure beyond "Tik-Tok." Dear Critics, Bloggers, and Hyper-Opinionated Punters: You don't have to love Ke$ha, even though she makes irresistable pop music. But you should actually listen to her entire album before you publicly denounce her as little more than a fleeting hot-mess. You'll look smarter. Oh... and didn't they say similar things about Madonna when she wore her bra outside her t-shirts, made out with Latino boys in her videos, and rolled around the floor of the MTV Awards about 100 years ago?
2. Progress - Take That. I think I might have been the only Take That fan on the planet who didn't rejoice when my beloved Robbie Williams rejointed the group's line-up. Unlike many, I enjoyed the mature, far-less-fucked-up Robbie displayed on 2009's Reality Killed The Video Star, and listening to the newly four-man Take That felt like putting on a comfortable favorite sweater. With trepidation, I dove into Progress, only to discover one of the most inventive, yet accessible pop music recordings in recent years. The heightened stakes of the world waiting for Robbie to wreak havoc on the band might have initially put everyone on their best behavior, but it also seemed to have inspired Take That to bravely reinvent the concept of a boy-band. With the invaluable aid of skilled producer Stuart Price, the lads swapped the predictability of power-ballads for majestic brotherhood anthems ("The Flood") and sinewy dancefloor fodder ("Kidz," "S.O.S."). If only Americans were smart enough to care. Meanwhile, someone please get a copy of this album to the Backstreet Boys and New Kids on the Block... STAT!
3. Aphrodite - Kylie Minogue. This album gives us Kylie exactly as we want her: Smooth, sweet, and awash in colorful dance rhythms. The intention is clearly not to challenge, but to comfort the listener with warmth and familiarity. In a sea of murky pop darkness, often for the sake of it and little more, tunes like All The Lovers and Looking For An Angel feel like a desperately needed life-preserver. Kylie and executive producer Stuart Price wisely dressed the songs in arrangements that manage to be simultaneously timely and timeless. After countless albums, you leave Aphrodite sated, yet happily anticipating the fact that La Minogue still has more than a few tasty treats up her creative sleeve.
4. Lights - Ellie Goulding. Goulding was HEAVILY hyped in the world music press as one of the most promising new artists of 2010, a designation that is often more an albratross than boon. Seemingly deaf to the noise, Ellie simply went about the business of offering a sterling hybrid of electro-pop and singer/songwriter folk. With a voice warmly reminiscent of Alanis Morissette, Goulding proved adept at darting from playing the sultry couquette ("Under The Sheets") to plaintive storyteller ("Guns And Horses," "The Writer"). The recently issued Bright Lights deluxe edition indicates that Ellie has a good shot at dodgy sophmore slump.
5. Interpretations: The British Rock Songbook - Bettye LaVette. Rock elitists have already written volumes heralding the bluesy lustre of LaVette's voice, as well as her brazenly confident readings of classic compositions by Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd, among others. But let's break this down into words that an average listener can embrace. This is the album that legions of Tina Turner fans have wanted for decades... and may never get. To that end, show Miss LaVette some love!
6. The Reason Why - Little Big Town. On one level, LBT has long served a purpose similar to Bettye LaVette to Tina Turner fans; they are making the country-flavored soft-rock records that Fleetwood Mac would/should record if they could just pull their heads out of their asses. But The Reason Why shows the vocal quartet finally digging deeper and honing a sound that continues to be reverent to the Mac, but is also notably more soulful and spiritual. Particularly noteworthy is Jimi Westbrook, who manages to break out as a star lead-singer without hurting the band's delicate harmony equation.
7. Happiness - Hurts. If Tears For Fears were to form today, they'd be called Hurts. They deal in the kind of moody poetry and slate-grey tale-weaving that must have Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith gnashing their teeth with envy. There are plenty of unique distinguishing characteristics to Hurts, thank goodness. Most notable is the fact that they wisely do not get too comfortable with '80s posturing, and they know exactly when to pick up the tempo... often right before the temptation to drown the listener in minor-chord sadness has reached the proverbial perilous edge of a cliff. A promising debut that leaves the ear curious for more.
8. American Slang - The Gaslight Anthem. Have old-fashioned, barroom bands become obsolete? Gratefully, NO! American Slang is rife with the blue-collar romance of a classic Bruce Springsteen album, but with none of the workers-unite politics that have marred his later efforts. Quite frankly, this is not music to burn too many brain cells over. It's all about three or four chords, loud guitars, a big backbeat, and a hunky frontman. In other words, it's about rock-and-roll, dude!
9. Recovery - Eminem. Sometimes, you have to live through hell in order to create great art. Recovery is brutal, yet beautiful. It's a vivid snapshot of a platinum star who is fearlessly willing to show his most ugly scars and flaws. In fact, he flaunts them with a bedraggled, yet defiant pride that might make this previously hateful brute charming... in a prickly way, of course.
10. Night Work - Scissor Sisters. It must totally suck to be in this band. You make a beloved, wildly cool first album, and (despite the undeniable charms of subsequent efforts) you then spend the rest of your career living it down. Night Work shows Jake Shears and Baby Daddy throwing up their hands and abandoning the '70s-centricity of their first two albums. In its place is a darkly sweet '80s dance flavor that fulfills the promise never achieved by Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Jake is, by turns, a preening sex-god and late-in-life/Freddie Mercury-esque philosopher. They've yet to match the fan ardor of that first album, but it's good to see that Scissor Sisters haven't stopped following their musical bliss.
2. Progress - Take That. I think I might have been the only Take That fan on the planet who didn't rejoice when my beloved Robbie Williams rejointed the group's line-up. Unlike many, I enjoyed the mature, far-less-fucked-up Robbie displayed on 2009's Reality Killed The Video Star, and listening to the newly four-man Take That felt like putting on a comfortable favorite sweater.

Top 10 Singles of 2010
1. All The Lovers - Kylie Minogue. This is as close to perfect as a pop song gets. Kylie's vocal is downright angelic, wafting atop a fluttering melody and a groove that is taut and spine-crawling. It's a watershed moment proving that La Minogue's best recordings undeniably still lie ahead.
2. Helium Hearts - Jason Reeves. Simple and infectious, poetic and picturesque. Jason comes as close to capturing the lighthearted rush of emotion that comes during the early days of romance.
3. Love Part II - Bright Light Bright Light. The hi-NRG rhythmic fervor of vintage Erasure and Pet Shop Boys underlines a wonderfully matter-of-fact tale of lads in love. If only this music was this comfortably queer and sweetly romantic when I first came out so many years ago.
4. Stuck On You - Sugarland. It takes the proverbial balls of steel to drop a ragga-pop breakdown in the middle of a strummy, Middle-American country music tune. But that's what Sugarland compadres Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are all about. They have become masters of down-home country songwriting that has just the right amount of stank on it.
5. Kites - Gravitonas. It's taken a hot minute for producer/composer/musician Alexander Bard to finally match the artful sophistication of the late, great Army of Lovers. In frontman Andreas Ohn, he has found the perfect voice to give life to his meditations of life, love, and spirituality in the disco round.
6. Bad Girl - DeeDee Loves Me. On the surface, DeeDee comes off as a sassy, teen-friendly combination of Lily Allen and Katy Perry. Dig deeper, and you'll discover an intensely sensitive and soulful young woman who will make you want, by turns, to be her BFF and bad-boy deflector/protector. This single is the start of something special.
7. Leave It All Behind - Jason Walker. The clubland belter has reinvented himself into a soul singer of depth that belies his youth. This song is more than a "you-can-make-it" anthem. It is a declaration of independence and renewed statement of creative purpose for a singer who has the potential to make a million hearts soar.
8. If (When You Go) - Judie Tzuke. After 30 years as a journeywoman singer/songwriter, it would be reasonable for Miss Judie to simply retread one or two previous ideas, while cruising on auto-pilot. This sterling moment from her underappreciated Moon On A Mirrorball opus reveals the exact opposite. Teamed with pop maestro Steve Anderson, Tzuke has never sounded more creatively engaged or emotionally available. Her performance of the song's gentle, yet painfully sad prose could be a masterclass in emotional subtlety.
9. Sugarbaby - Morningwood. Remember when rock-and-roll was carefree and just a little naughty? Morningwood's Chantal Claret clearly does. From the contagious tribal chants to the sweeping air-guitar chorus, this jam will make you feel like you're speeding in a convertible down Any-Highway USA with your bestie in tow.
10. White Room - The Dirty Disco. Ornery, acidic, aggressive and sometimes downright funny. This is an air-puncher for anyone who has ever felt locked outside of life's mainstream, and treated like a psycho-loser just for being different. Frontman Adam-Boy performs with empathetic venom that is undercut with subtle, yet palpable sadness.
2. Helium Hearts - Jason Reeves. Simple and infectious, poetic and picturesque. Jason comes as close to capturing the lighthearted rush of emotion that comes during the early days of romance.
3. Love Part II - Bright Light Bright Light. The hi-NRG rhythmic fervor of vintage Erasure and Pet Shop Boys underlines a wonderfully matter-of-fact tale of lads in love. If only this music was this comfortably queer and sweetly romantic when I first came out so many years ago.

Hour 1
(Brand-new/current releases. It's all about Bright Light Bright Light for me right now. Rod Thomas, the act's mastermind, is giving me fond '80s flashbacks, but he's also keeping me grounded in the here and now. I love that he can do it. It's proof that someone is still capable of that kind of unabashed pop musical glee - and, no, I'm not referring to the increasingly tired TV show!)

Anything - Fran Healy
Secrets - OneRepublic
The Reason Why - Little Big Town
The Diamond Church Street Choir - The Gaslight Anthem
Shine - Anna Nalick
Hour 3
(Robyn is a tough chick to interview. She is SMART, and she has that "I'm not in the mood for fools" demeanor that can be intimidating. She and I have talked a bunch of times over the years, and I have enormous affection for her, including the fact that she makes me work HARD in our interviews. I was actually a little thrown by how uniquely relaxed and almost giggly she was during this most recent visit. She is undeniably in a happy, happy place.)

Hour 3
(It's funny to me now how super-shy Andy Bell was when we first met so many years ago. It's also funny to me how terrified I was to speak with him. I was a diehard fan of Erasure, and Andy was my equivalent to Adam Lambert for so many these days. He epitomized fearlessness and a willingness to be himself, despite the fact that the world wasn't particularly interested in someone SO gay. What is funniest to me now is that Andy and I are actual friends. We talk off-mic regularly. He's a dear fellow. Funny, irreverent, and anything but shy. I adore him.)

Well, I was recently reminded that Jake might be "downtown," but he is also his own man... smart, sensitive, sweet. He was delight. Adding to the pleasure of this interview was the presence of fellow Scissor Sister Baby Daddy, who is equally smart and charming. If only he'd consented to do the interview nude!)

(Brand-new/current releases. Right now, there doesn't seem to be any record other than Kylie's "Aphrodite." To my ears, it's as perfect as a pop recording can get. Of course, "Night Work" by Scissor Sisters runs a very, very close second. Both are essential albums for your collection.)

Hour 1
(Brand-new/current releases. So much good stuff out right now. I couldn't squeeze everything I wanted to play in! Loving the Morningwood track. So tribal and bitchy! Hunx and the Punx is going to give you a giggle. Gotta love naughty queer punk!)

Hour 3
(This is the first-play of my chat with Christina Aguilera. She's taking some pretty nasty knocks right now, and they're not all completely fair. "Bionic" is a bit scattered and overwhelming, but when you break it into chunks, it starts to make sense. Christina showed up for the interview cranky and sleepy. She'd just performed on "Good Morning America." It wasn't until I proved that I really knew her music and this album that she locked in and become engaged. I can't say that I blame her for having an attitude. My guess is that people don't generally pay attention to more than her singles. Whether you love or hate Christina, you have to agree that she pours a LOT into her albums. When you do that, it's reasonable to get ratty when people interview you without doing their research.)

Plus, asking them if they wear diapers is a great ice-breaker!)

(Full disclosure: I was apprehensive about talking with Chely Wright. I had a mildly bad attitude about an artist seemingly past her sales prime using the revelation of her true self as a promotional tool for a comeback. Then I walked into the room and talked with Chely.... without prejudice and with respect. She answered every hard question directly. She never broke eye contact. I totally understand her journey now, and I adore her. I am so proud of this interview.)

Hour 3
(I have always been a fan of Mary Chapin Carpenter. She is my personal definition of a modern-day poet and philosopher. Then we nearly lost her several years ago to heart problems. I didn't think we'd ever get new music from her again. Surprise! She's made the most glorious album, "The Age of Miracles." I leapt at the chance to speak with her. We didn't just have a great interview, we connected. Our hearts touched. I found a kindred spirit in Mary Chapin.)

Feel The Spin Playlist, March 21st...
Hour 1
(Brand-new/current releases. So many cool tracks this week. Goldfrapp's new album, "Head First," is gorgeous. It's ABBA-redux in the middle of "Xanadu"! Then, there's the new Shayne Ward track, which is the first song he's recorded that could break in America. And then there's Todd Alsup and Matt Morris... and finally, Judy Ztuke's "If"... another masterful composition/production from the brilliant Steve Anderson.)

Hour 2
(The passing of pioneering American radio DJ Ron Lundy last week was a huge emotional blow to me. During his heyday as part of the line-up of the legendary WABC Musicradio 77 during the '70s, he was a constant companion to me as a shy, often isolated little boy. So many years later, he's proven to be a huge influence on the way I approach my daily show, "The Morning Jolt." To pay tribute to Mr. Lundy, I dug up WABC's playlist from March 18, 1975. I was 12 then years old and glued to my little transistor radio... and these songs. In so many ways, I still am.)

Then, he picked up his guitar and played a few songs for me.)

(Brand-new/current releases. So many cool tracks this week. Goldfrapp's new album, "Head First," is gorgeous. It's ABBA-redux in the middle of "Xanadu"! Then, there's the new Shayne Ward track, which is the first song he's recorded that could break in America. And then there's Todd Alsup and Matt Morris... and finally, Judy Ztuke's "If"... another masterful composition/production from the brilliant Steve Anderson.)

Hour 2
(The passing of pioneering American radio DJ Ron Lundy last week was a huge emotional blow to me. During his heyday as part of the line-up of the legendary WABC Musicradio 77 during the '70s, he was a constant companion to me as a shy, often isolated little boy. So many years later, he's proven to be a huge influence on the way I approach my daily show, "The Morning Jolt." To pay tribute to Mr. Lundy, I dug up WABC's playlist from March 18, 1975. I was 12 then years old and glued to my little transistor radio... and these songs. In so many ways, I still am.)

(One of my favorite new artists the moment is Dan Black. He makes music that is anashamedly pure pop. He also underlines his songs with words of hope and reasons to believe that tomorrow is going to be awesome. We sat down this week and had a most wonderful, intimate conversation. Then, he picked up his guitar and played a few songs for me.)

Hour 3
(I started out wanting to play the new Robbie Williams single, which I think is easily one of his best. Then, I found myself experimenting with other songs. When I got to "Rockferry," I zeroed in on my favorite lyric from that song: "A bag of songs and a heavy heart" From there, I played with the kind of songs we carry in our minds and reach for when we have a heavy heart. The hour evolved from there. I love the full-circle/get-over-yourself moment at the end. I have to also note that there are some moments that I'm especially proud of this hour, particularly between "Hometown Glory" and "Cruz." I am so grateful that I get to do the radio of my dreams every week without interference.)
