Amazing Songs & Other Delights #97 – The Of Sea & Cake edition por Raquel Pinheiro on Yé Yé Radio, Monday June 1 & 8, 3-4pm (London time)

The Sea and Cake

My radio show Amazing Songs & Other Delights #97 – The Of Sea & Cake edition is broadcasted Monday 1 and 8 June, 3-4pm (London time) on Yé Yé Radio: yeyeradio.com to (or on the app).

For some reason I had the programme title for a while. Probably, because of Sea and Cake, the band that opens and closes the show. Since I recently went ocean swim again and I like cake, it was a perfect match. Ideas and life catching and matching up.

The songs and instrumentals aren’t necessarily about cake, sweets, or the ocean, although enough are. Like Savoy Truffle written by George Harrison for The Beatles’ White Album is literally about chocolates, and was written for Eric Clapton and his love  of said sweets. For The Of Sea & Cake edition I picked the live version Dhani Harrison singings his father’s song.

The Beach Boys’ Catch A Wave is another literal song, this time about the ocean and catching a wave to surf.

Tracklist:
01: The Sea and Cake – Four Corners
02: Dhani Harrison (Live at George Fest) – Savoy Truffle
03: Air – La Femme d’Argent
04: Queens Of The Stone Age – Monsters In The Parasol

Amazing Songs & Other Delights #96 – The We’re Still In Spring edition by Raquel Pinheiro on Yé Yé Radio Monday 18th and 25th

Saint Sappho

My radio show Amazing Songs & Other Delights #96 – The We’re Still In Spring edition is broadcasted Monday 18th and 25th May, 3-4pm (London time) on Yé Yé Radio: yeyeradio.com to (or on the app).

There’s seventeen songs of different genres and time periods. By new bands and longs established ones. Some of the songs aren’t an obvious Spring choice, but they make sense to me in springtime.

The programme goes from a Spring song for children, The Kiboomers – Ladybugs Fly, to fado with Rita Braga’s tropical interpretation of Amália Rodrigues and Don Byas’ Rua do Capelão.

There’s space for indie songs, Again and Again and Again by Silly Boy Blue, Sun It Rises by Fleet Floxes, Stranger Baby by Gifthorse or Whole Again by Saint Sappho. Along Schubert’s Frühlingsglaube sung by Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, and Test Department with the South Wales Striking Miners Choir singing Take Me Home.

The heavy weights contingent includes  Taylor Swift, The Beatles, The Avett Brothers, and The Kinks.

And that’s not all.

Tracklist:
01: The Kiboomers – Ladybugs Fly
02: Taylor Swift – invisible string
03: The Kind Hills – Dance, Dance, Dance
04: Silly Boy Blue – Again and Again and Again
