Kaue tends to bring the hits and today’s song is no different. It may not be known to the Americans on the forum, as it did no business there, but it charted all over Europe.

178. Alex Gaudino, featuring Shèna – Watch Out
Year: 2008
Album: My Destination
Biggest Fan: Kaue (#383)

Very bombastic and somehow that's why it works. It's not gunning for masterpiece status, but as a party track you could do worse.

Sadly today BryanBehar’s streak of having only songs named after cities in this game is broken. Unless there is a city somewhere named Coma Girl. I’m not looking that up.

179. Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros – Coma Girl

The lyrics here are pretty weak, but there is an almost-reggea kind of relaxed vibe that I do quite enjoy.

Today, flibie brings a song that is only a little over a year old. It comes from one of the biggest pop albums of 2021. As such, it is not on AM yet, but it will be, as it was #99 on the EOY critics list.

180. Olivia Rodrigo – deja vu
Year: 2021
Album: SOUR
Biggest Fan: flibie (#101)

Olivia Rodrigo – deja vu: 7
Yeah, good song and all, but why do I suddenly want to sing about carbon monoxide and bringing down the government during the verses? Wait, is that the same melody as No Surprises by Radiohead? Yes, yes it is. The chorus is very different though. Otherwise a fine albeit very teenage song.

A track from a classic late nineties R&B album today. In contrast to some other tracks from the same album this was at best a minor hit. Time for a reappreciation?

A rather smoky sounding 90's R&B track. Quite appealing.

Sinatra in a very familiar mode, but this one is still hard to resist. He sounds so effortless, which is exactly what this song needs.

Wham! – Club Tropicana: 5
"Tropical" music as a cheesy cliché. This is a song that seems written specifically for tropical resorts that give the feeling of a holiday while having all the comfort of home. It's unpretentious and a bit catchy, but in a way too familiar way.

Depeche Mode still doesn’t get a song from the band they are named for. Instead we get a deep cut for an album that was notoriously long in the making.
