Patti Smith – ‘Gloria’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nBecause this woman started her first album with the verse \u201cJesus died for somebody\u2019s sins but not mine\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nFrank Zappa – ‘Whippin’ Post’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nI could have picked any but today I was listening to this one specifically. I love him, he\u2019s God.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nBabyshambles – ‘Dr. No’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nI\u2019ve got the riff stuck in my head and it\u2019s an album I\u2019ve listened to a lot lately.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nChristine & The Queens – ‘IT’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nI heard it on the TV Series \u201cGirls\u201d and couldn\u2019t get it out of my head.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nMina – ‘Oggi Sono Io’\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nShe\u2019s the greatest voice in Italian music and for me one of the greatest on the planet. Even if you can\u2019t understand the lyrics, her voice is food for the soul.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nShe & Him – ‘Take It Back’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nI\u2019ve loved this duo since they started.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nMorrissey – ‘We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nThere\u2019s something so honest and truthful about this song. And it\u2019s fun.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nDinah Washington – ‘The Good Life’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nWhen I auditioned for jazz school I sang her version of Mad About The Boy. She\u2019s always been my polar star.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nAlabama Shakes – ‘Don\u2019t Wanna Fight’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nI so wish I had written this song.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\nStefano Bollani – ‘Choro Sim’<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nOne of the best pianists and entertainers of our times, not just because he\u2019s Italian like me.\u00a0 <\/span>He can make Mozart swing. This is just a little taste. Go check him out.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
