Planet Zero: The Warmth of the Sun

We’re experiencing the perfect storm of a pandemic, Brexit and global warming waiting like the three horses of the Apocalypse on the horizon of our dreams of the Costa Brava.

As Jarvis Cocker eloquently puts it, our ice caps are turning to slush and even David Attenborough looks tired. Greenpeace is ripening into yellow peace and we’re all worrying about the battery life of our new cars. Emily Barker enquires in song ‘Where have all the sparrows gone’ and we hear a poem from Maya Angelou about ‘The Caged Bird that Sings’.

As long ago as 1969 Yes were singing about ‘Survival’ and as Woodstock came and went and the airports, parking lots and politicians fall silent, we listen to A-ha sing of Mother Nature dying and going to Heaven. Not world music this week, but music lamenting the world.

The Power of Babel

Music from anywhere, for anyone

Multi-musical / Multi-lingual

Great music transcends boundaries, cultures, dialects and moods. It communicates directly to the pleasure synapses and the toes. It can take us back and it can take us forwards. It reminds us that we are all part of something bigger and better. This week we are featuring great music from around the world – not the first, second or third world. Just the world. Like all the music on the show it has to meet a certain standard. It has to transport, communicate and inspire. \when it comes to music we don’t need a passport.

Songs in the key of Isolation

Songs written in and about the pandemic

Whilst most of us have mooched about indoors during lockdown, the music community has been busier than usual. Deprived of the opportunity to tour, many musicians have taken to home studios and the internet to create, collaborate and record their response to Covid.

This has produced some brilliant work as you will hear. The artists whose music I am sharing today include Michael Stipe of REM, Kings of Leon, Alicia Keys, Bono, Matt Bellamy of Muse, Morrissey, Billie Eilish, Foals and Future Islands. This afternoon I’m proud to present some of the best music out there at present. Our music community is still writing and performing. Are you listening?
