I love the US comedian Andy Samburg so the fact that this year he returned to Saturday Night Live with two new songs with his band, The Lonely Island, made my year. My favourite was their collaboration with Charlie XCX: ‘Here I Go’.
Who needs Brat summer, when you have Lonely Island autumn?
Of course they didn’t play the uncensored version on Saturday Night Live, just as SNL are unlikely to plan any songs by Northern Irish band ‘Kneecap’. In fact I’m not even sure WordPress will link to them either as they answer the question: what would happen if Eminem grew up in West Belfast?
Which is almost as filthy as my next choice. Except my next choice isn’t filthy but you keep expecting it to be. Even though it’s not. And it’s a kids song. And they do everything to make it not filthy. But still. It’s filthy. Even thought it’s not. It’s The Wiggles ‘Bouncing Balls’.
But this definitely is filthy. The Dare’s ‘Girls’
For something a bit calmer. Father John Mistry’s ‘Screamland’
But favourite song could have any of several Chappell Roan songs but, in the end, it had to be this one.
And favourite Album: Fontaines D.C. ‘Romance’
