See yesterday's post for numbers 100 through 91.
90. "It's Oh So Quiet" Betty Hutton - I learned the Björk version first and so was surprised and delighted by this original. Except that Björk correctly noticed that the word "gorge" is meant to be short for "gorgeous," whereas Hutton mispronounces it as "George."
89. "Sugar In My Bowl" Camille O'Sullivan - on my March playlist of Irish music. She doesn't get all the words quite right, which I sometimes feel forgiving of and at other times get annoyed by. I like how she belts, though.
O'Sullivan is the life partner of actor Aidan Gillen, who can be found reciting poetry in English and Irish on Spotify. I most recently saw him as the big bad in Mayor of Kingstown, but remember him best as the heroic Aberama Gold in Peaky Blinders, late-life love of Aunt Polly (Helen McCrory).
88. "Dead End Road" Jelly Roll - the song from the Twisters soundtrack is simply a bangin' country-rocker
87. "David Duchovny, Why Won't You Love Me? (The Reboot)" Bree Sharp
86. "Me and Mr. Jones" Amy Winehouse
85. "S.O.S. (Sawed Off Shotgun)" The Glorious Sons - I don't love the band name; it sounds like something Confederate sympathizers would name themselves. And it might not be great for one's mental health, as it implies suicidal ideation. But it's a very catchy song.
84. "You & I" Lady Gaga - I listened to Lady Gaga in anticipation of the release of Joker: Folie à Deux. (I still haven't seen it.)
83. "Sacrilege" Yeah Yeah Yeahs - "Fallen for a guy/ [who] Fell down from the sky." On my Destiel playlist
82. "It's the End of the World As We Know It" R.E.M.
81. "Drunk (And I Don't Wanna Go Home) (GOLDHOUSE Remix)" Elle King, Miranda Lambert, GOLDHOUSE
