It was shaping up to be a weak week for Songs of the Week, but then our #1 track emerged today and we dug a little deeper through the week’s songs and put together a compelling Top 10. It’s an eclectic mix of political songs, catchy mainstream pop, a strange sci-fi spoken word track, and some unapologetic guitar indie rock. More
