Aliens

This week we play songs written to explore the plight, the fights, the heartache and the sheer will to live of refugees. As they arrive in dinghies, via country-long treks across deserts, seas and mountains, avoiding patrol boats, barricades and presidential diktats the hope is that they will hear some of this music and know that many in the artistic community understand their quest for freedom and life. Lots of artists have been inspired to write about this journey and this week we play songs in this vein by Bob Dylan, U2, Coldplay, Embrace, Passenger, Elbow, Paul Simon, Neil Diamond, Paloma Faith and many more.

Flora and Trauma

Like music, flowers bring happiness, but can also mark times of grief and loss. For as long as people have been writing songs, they’ve been using flowers as metaphors, props and symbols for life, love and death.

Flowers in music often represent a romance, regardless of whether that romance is blossoming or wilting away. Songs about  buttercups, daisies, tulips and other song blossoms abound.

There are more songs about roses than any other flower, with around 62% of all ‘flower’ songs based around roses. You’ll hear the Jaguar-sponsored Desert Rose from Sting and Seal’s three times Grammy-winning ‘Kiss From a Rose’. Whether as garlands or wreaths, flowers have inspired great music.
