This week In Male Balladeers 07/52
Robbie Williams’ "Angels," co-written with Guy Chambers, blends sweeping production with karaoke-ready appeal, securing its place in late-'90s pop history despite chart peaks of No. 4 in the UK and No. 41 in the US. Its enduring cultural resonance includes a 2022 AI reboot featuring Beethoven’s "Moonlight Sonata." Similarly introspective, Myles Kennedy’s "Haunted by Design" shifts from Alter Bridge’s rock bombast to stripped-down blues, exploring grief through restrained acoustic textures.
Other highlights bring diverse tones: The Weeknd’s "Sidewalks," from "Starboy," pairs introspective lyrics with Kendrick Lamar’s sharp verses, while Jamie Cullum’s "Gran Torino," tied to Clint Eastwood’s film, opts for smoky jazz intimacy. Ed Sheeran’s "I’m a Mess," blending raw lyrics with pop accessibility, reflects a bittersweet confessional quality. Meanwhile, Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ theatrical "Constipation Blues" thrives on eccentricity, showcasing absurdity with unmatched flair during a chaotic 1983 Serge Gainsbourg duet.
