Stranger - Vampire Weekend

Aaron's entry this week is an 80's power pop anthem that explores the tension between youth's bravado and insecurity.

Here is a song that grapples with the doubts and difficulties that arise from examining evangelicalism's dissonance.

In this beautiful piece, Sara Bareilles looks back with fondness on that special threshold between childhood and adulthood.

It's bombastic! It's energetic! Is it just a Jock Jam, or is there more under the surface? Either way, this 90s anthem has stood the test of time.

An honest and straightforward song with relatable themes of self-doubt, dependence and the security of weathering life togeteher with someone who loves you.

A poignant song tinged with love and betrayal, intimacy and regret.

Jonathan brings the whimsy with an instrumental track from Sweden.

It's fun, but weird. Signs of life are definitely wobbling up through the floor.
