Dans One Hit Wonder, Margaux Lassalle s'interroge : peut-on vraiment qualifier Kaiser Chiefs de groupe à succès unique ? En France, leur nom reste souvent associé à "Ruby". Pourtant, la formation originaire de Leeds, d'abord connue sous le nom de Parva avant d'adopter son patronyme actuel en hommage au club sud-africain Kaizer Chiefs, a construit une carrière bien plus riche. Dès 2005, le groupe mené par Ricky Wilson frappe fort avec "Employment", porté par "I Predict a Riot", "Everyday I Love You Less and Less" et "Oh My God". Ce premier disque, aux influences new wave et punk rock, leur vaut plusieurs Brit Awards. Ils confirment en 2007 avec "Yours Truly, Angry Mob", qui contient "Ruby" mais aussi "The Angry Mob", puis enchaînent avec "Off with Their Heads", porté par "Never Miss a Beat". Toujours actifs, les Kaiser Chiefs ont poursuivi l'aventure au fil des années, jusqu'à "Kaiser Chiefs' Easy Eighth Album", paru en 2024, confirmant leur évolution vers un son plus pop et dansant.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

I denne uges udsendelse skal det handle om en legendarisk prisuddeling, for i går (19. februar) var det nemlig præcis 30 år siden, at den britiske musikpris Brit Awards 1996 blev uddelt ved et stort show i Earl's Court i det vestlige London. Ved uddelingen året før havde der været et ”blodigt” opgør mellem Blur og Oasis, og Blur endte med at vinde 4 priser mod Oasis' ene. Men i 1996 er britpoppen på sit højeste, begge bands har udgivet nye albums året før, og der er derfor endnu engang lagt op til en duel mellem de 2 grupper. Det skal vise sig at blive en aften der udvikler sig til et af de mest vilde shows i 90'erne. Som en rollercoaster i frit fald. Ikke mindst pga. de mange superkendte stjerner der har lagt vejen forbi London denne aften. Det er bl.a. Kylie Minogue, Bob Geldof, Robbie Williams, Tina Turner, Pete Townshend, Massive Attack, Celine Dion, Brian Eno og sågar Tony Blair. Vi spiller også flere numre fra nogle af aftenens store stjerner deriblandt, David Bowie, Simply Red, Annie Lennox, Take That, Pulp og selvfølgelig også Blur og Oasis. Derudover mindes vi gamle tandbørster, vi kigger endnu engang på den turbulente Michael Jackson optræden, vi overvejer hvad der mon var særligt ved uddelingen i 1999, og så kommer vi også lige forbi en forbigået Per Gessle, Alanis Mosilette, en vred Michael Hutchence, den amerikanske psykolog Howard Gardner, Björks daværende forlovede, diverse James Bond film og så afslører Andy sin store afhandling om den engelske 90'er skuespiller Neil Morrisseys afdøde bror. Playliste: Blur - Parklife Simply Red - Fairground Supergrass - Alright Alanis Morissette - Hand in my pocket INXS - Elegantly wasted Take That - Back for good Pulp - Sorted for E's & Wizz Annie Lennox - No more I love you's Oasis - Roll with it David Bowie - Hallo spaceboy (Pet Shop Boys Mix) David Bowie - Under pressure (Live at Brit Awards 1996)

Dave Stewart is a true music icon. Born in Sunderland in 1952 his first love affair was with football – dreaming of a career playing for the Black Cats, but a knee injury and his parents' divorce changed his entire outlook. Music filled a hole - despite a music teacher who described his dreams as ‘idiotic' it became his passion, inspired by his Dad's high-tech (for the 70s!) stereo system, a Robert Johnson blues album and some eye-opening teenage experimentation with acid.He signed to Elton John's record label shortly after leaving school and after several false starts he met Annie Lennox in 1976 and formed a band together called The Tourists – a pre-curser to the significantly more successful 80s project The Eurythmics .In the 45 years since then Dave has done it all – as an artist he's a Grammy winner, as a producer he's won multiple Brit Awards, as a song-writer he's won the prestigious Silver Clef award, he's won a Golden Glove for composing a song with Mick Jagger for Alfie and in 2024 he teamed up with Joss Stone to write a musical version of The Time Traveller's Wife. It's hard to put his contribution to music into context because his impact on popular music is so vast.Let me list just SOME of the artists he's produced, written for or recorded with:Paul McCartney, Bono, Aretha Franklin, Alison Moyet, Bryan Ferry, Sinead O'Connor, No Doubt, Jon Bon Jovi, Bob Geldoff, Bryan Ferry, & Stevie Nicks. In fact in 2011 he briefly formed a supergroup comprised of himself, Mick Jagger, Joss Stone, Damian Marley and A.R. Rahman.He's one of the great innovators – in 1998 his album SlyFi became the first album to be released on the internet – it predates Google, and MySpace and Facebook wouldn't be launched for another SEVEN years.Now in his early 70s he continues to inspire – until Covid he owned and ran a creative members club in London, and through his production company Dave Stewart Entertainment he continues to push musical boundaries and work with some of the world's biggest names in music.Enjoy our chat with an icon. Cheers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In our latest podcast, Naemi Victoria chats with director Kathryn Ferguson about her short film Nostalgie, which is nominated for a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award, as well as being nominated in the Best Short Film category at the 2026 Irish Film & Television Awards.Nostalgie stars Aidan Gillen and features original songs and a score by Dan Smith, the Grammy-nominated, Brit Award-winning frontman of Bastille.Drew Lord Haig (Gillen), a faded English 1980s pop star, is unexpectedly invited to perform in Northern Ireland, pulling him out of musical retirement and into a moral dilemma tied to the unintended legacy of his work. What begins as an exercise in nostalgia turns into a reckoning when Drew discovers his music has been repurposed in ways that contradict its original intent.The film also stars Jessica Reynolds (Kneecap) and Michael Smiley (Bad Sisters), alongside a predominantly Northern Irish cast. Written by Stacey Gregg and based on a short story by Wendy Erskine, Nostalgie explores the intersection of personal vanity, collective memory, and the political afterlife of pop culture.Read more here:www.filmireland.net/podcast-kathryn-ferguson-on-bafta-ifta-nominated-short-nostalgieKathryn FergusonBelfast-born Kathryn is an Emmy-nominated, BIFA and IFTA winning director whose innovative and boundary-pushing documentary work has screened globally.

Join Here: ⁠⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠⁠In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz explores the artist background of Tame Impala, the psychedelic rock/psych-pop project led by Australian multi-instrumentalist Kevin Parker. Since 2008, Parker has written, produced, and performed most material solo under the Tame Impala moniker.The sound evolution traces from garage-psych roots on Innerspeaker (2010), to polished pop-infused textures on Currents (2015), groove/pop hybridization on The Slow Rush (2020), and the latest genre blend of psychedelic, disco, house, and pop on Deadbeat, released October 17, 2025. Deadbeat debuted at #4 on Billboard 200, #4 on Official U.K. Albums Chart, and #2 on ARIA Chart.Tame Impala boasts numerous Grammys, ARIA, APRA Awards, and one BRIT Award, with massive streaming success—e.g., “The Less I Know the Better” exceeding 2.2B Spotify streams—yet waited nearly two decades for a first Hot 100 entry.Focus shifts to standout single “Dracula,” released September 26, 2025, as the third from Deadbeat. This third single delivers a bouncy, disco-leaning groove with a “party-until-dawn” narrative using vampire metaphors for nightlife embrace. Praised for its infectious groove, earworm chorus, and Halloween-adjacent energy, it drew mixed reviews (e.g., Medium 6.5/10) but strong community response in outlets like Atwood Magazine.“Dracula” marked Tame Impala's breakthrough: first Billboard Hot 100 entry debuting at #55 (October 2025), peaking at #30; #1 on Alternative Airplay (January 2026, returned #1 February 7 chart); #2 Adult Alternative Airplay; #23 Rock & Alternative Airplay. It ranked #3 in Triple J Hottest 100 (2025), amassed ~221M Spotify streams by February 2026, with debut week U.S. metrics of 6.5M streams, 1.7M radio impressions, and 1K digital sales. It peaked Top 40 on UK Singles Chart over 16 weeks.An early February 2026 remix featuring BLACKPINK's JENNIE added new vocal layers, verse content, and lyric nods to Parker, blending K-pop with psych-pop. Released post-Parker's JENNIE merch sighting at the February 1, 2026 Grammys—where Tame Impala won Best Dance/Electronic Recording for “End Of Summer” (second consecutive in category)—the remix boosted visibility, demographic reach, and chart momentum, sparking follow-up Hot 100 entries like “Loser” (#91) and “My Old Ways” (#56).Analytic Dreamz analyzes “Dracula” as a streaming-driven radio crossover, U.S. chart gateway, and cross-genre platform linking psych-pop and K-pop ecosystems, reinforcing Parker's hybrid legacy amid a 2026 European tour (April 4–May 13, covering major markets like Madrid, Paris, Berlin, London, Amsterdam, Stockholm, Dublin).Tune in for in-depth insights on Tame Impala's evolution, breakthrough success, and strategic significance in modern music.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Annie Lennox burst onto the international stage in the early 1980s as part of Eurythmics. The British synth-pop duo, also featuring Dave Stewart, was at the forefront of pop music's New Wave, and Lennox's appearance in the “Sweet Dreams” video – close cropped, bright orange hair in a bold man's suit and tie – created a captivating image that, when paired with her astonishing, soulful voice – was impossible to forget. After several more hits with Eurythmics, Lennox went solo in the 1990s, and became one of the most successful and awarded female British artists of the past 50 years. Over her career she has won 8 Brit Awards, 4 Grammys, an MTV Music Video Award, Billboard Century Award, an Oscar, and a Golden Globe. She is also a passionate and celebrated philanthropist.

The nominees for the BRIT Awards 2026 have been revealed and, in their signature chaotic fashion, Annie and Nick analyse the lists of names and ask: will Olivia Dean and Lola Young reign supreme?

Plus, Sidetracked favourite Jacob Alon has won the Critics' Choice Award – and Annie and Nick have big feelings about it. Elsewhere, the Japanese PM has gone viral for her heavy metal drumming – should more world leaders use music in meetings with their peers?

pWotD Episode 3156: Chris Rea Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 678,268 views on Monday, 22 December 2025 our article of the day is Chris Rea.Christopher Anton Rea ( REE-ə; 4 March 1951 – 22 December 2025) was an English rock and blues singer-songwriter and guitarist. Known for his distinctive voice and his slide guitar playing, Rea recorded 25 studio albums, two of which topped the UK Albums Chart: The Road to Hell in 1989 and its successor, Auberge, in 1991. He had already become "a major European star by the time he finally cracked the UK Top 10 with the single "The Road to Hell (Part 2)". His many hit songs included "I Can Hear Your Heartbeat", "Stainsby Girls", "Josephine", "On the Beach", "Let's Dance", "Driving Home for Christmas", "Working on It", "Tell Me There's a Heaven", "Auberge", and "Julia". He also recorded a duet with Elton John, "If You Were Me". He was nominated for the Brit Award for British Male Solo Artist in 1988, 1989 and 1990. Over the course of his long career, Rea's work had at times been informed by his struggles with serious health issues, which in the early 2000s influenced his change from rock to blues music style, releasing studio albums on his independent record label Jazzee Blue, such as Dancing Down the Stony Road (2002) and 11-CD Blue Guitars (2005).Rea never toured the United States, where he was best known for the 1978 single "Fool (If You Think It's Over)", which reached No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart, earning him a Grammy nomination as Best New Artist in 1978. A decade later, "Working On It" topped the Mainstream Rock chart. He sold more than 40 million records worldwide.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:39 UTC on Tuesday, 23 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Chris Rea on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Joanna.

Det här är berättelsen om den driftiga barnstjärnan som tvärvände och blev hela världens guilty pleasure. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Det är Brit Awards i London, våren 2025 och BBC sänder live.På scen är belysningen dämpad och de många små lamporna sprider ett varmt sken över de röda draperierna. Mitt på scenen står en rosa, hjärtformad säng. Ett strålkastarljus lyser upp Sabrina Carpenter och hennes kvinnliga dansare. 25-åriga Sabrina dansar sexigt på scenen, särar på benen och slänger med håret. Hon är klädd i röda glittriga underkläder och stay ups. När de manliga dansarna, uppklädda som den brittiska högvakten, kommer upp på scenen skriker publiken. För sex år sedan var Sabrina Carpenter en av Disneys starkast lysande barnstjärnor, med topp-producerade låtar om olycklig kärlek och en girl next door-estetik.Nu går hon ett varv runt en av dansarna, petar på honom och vinkar framför hans ansikte för att få honom att reagera. Sen sjunker hon ner på knä framför högvaktens skrev. Först då bryter han fasaden och blinkar till kameran.Medverkande: Mina Asp Romefors, Fanny Svärd och Nova Furevik.Programmet gjordes av Alexandra Sannemalm och Lydia Bandolin Sörlin hösten 2025Producent och programledare Siri HillExekutiv producent Lars TruedssonSlutmix Fredrik NilssonP3 Musikdokumentär produceras av Tredje Statsmakten MediaLjudklippen i programmet kommer från: BBC (2025), den filmade tävlingenThe Next Miley Cyrus Project (2008), W Magazine (2024), Justine Magazine (2015), Billboard Live (2018), Tiny Desk Consert (2024), Saturday Night Live (2025), TV-serierna Law and Order (2011) och Girl Meets World (2014) samt Youtubekontona Spiffy Virals (2024), Looney Lola (2023), AlanMaxTV (2025) och Stenbacka Sister's (2025).

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Roland Gift — the iconic voice of Fine Young Cannibals and one of the most instantly recognisable singers in British music. With era-defining hits like "She Drives Me Crazy," "Good Thing," "Johnny Come Home," and their electrifying version of "Ever Fallen In Love," Fine Young Cannibals became global chart-toppers — selling over five million records and earning two BRIT Awards, an Ivor Novello, and three Grammy nominations. Their sharp, soulful sound continues to influence generations. Roland returns with two major releases — FYC40, a definitive 40-year anthology, and his brand-new festive single "Everybody Knows It's Christmas", showcasing that unmistakable voice in glorious form. Roland looks back on the band's beginnings, the explosive success of The Raw & The Cooked, and how his Otis Redding-inspired delivery fused with David Steele and Andy Cox's songwriting to create something completely unique. He also reflects on Fine Young Cannibals' continued cultural impact — including "She Drives Me Crazy" becoming the musical centrepiece of the 2025 Chanel campaign starring Dua Lipa and Jennie from BLACKPINK. We also talk about Roland's return to performing — touring with Jools Holland, shining at the 2022 Hootenanny, and his triumphant 40 Years of Songs tour, which launched with a sold-out London Palladium show. And we dive into "Everybody Knows It's Christmas" — a glam-rock, wall-of-sound celebration co-written with Ben Barson, full of warmth, nostalgia, and classic Roland soul. "Wherever you are I hope this song brings a bit of warmth, a smile, and maybe a bit of that Christmas magic your way." – Roland Gift Listen to Roland Gift discuss 40 years of Fine Young Cannibals, the making of FYC40, and the joy behind his new Christmas single — exclusively on the XS Noize Podcast.

John is joined by Kae Tempest and Fraser T. Smith to discuss how they wrote and recorded the album “Self-Titled”. Kae Tempest is an English recording artist and author. He began his career performing at open mic nights around London, quickly gaining a reputation for his powerful lyrical performances blending rap and spoken word poetry. Between 2008 and 2012 he toured internationally with his band Sound of Rum, launching a solo career with debut album ‘Everybody Down' in 2014. It and second album ‘Let Them Eat Chaos', released in 2015, were both nominated for the Mercury Prize. Kae has since released three further solo albums, including BRIT Award-nominated ‘The Line Is A Curve'. Kae is widely recognised as one of the UK alternative scene's most essential voices, acclaimed for his exceptional lyricism and acute social commentary. Both are particularly evident on his fifth studio album, ‘Self Titled', released earlier this year. ‘Self-Titled' is Kae's first collaboration with multi-award winning UK producer, songwriter and musician Fraser T. Smith. The trio sit down at Fraser's studio, Utopia, where the album was written and recorded, to discuss developing creative harmony working together for the first time, the process of building a song using ProTools, the influence of drum textures and bass sounds on the record, how one creative choice can completely change the direction of a track and much more.

Sam Fender is a singer and songwriter from the town of North Shields in England. He won the Brit Award for Best Rock/Alternative Act twice. His most recent album is called People Watching, and just like his first two albums, it went to #1 on the UK album charts. To help produce the album, Sam enlisted Adam Granduciel, the singer and frontman of the band The War on Drugs. For this episode, I talked to Sam, and his bandmate Joe Atkinson, about the title track from People Watching, and the long journey that it took to get made, from Sam's kitchen, to the Hollywood Hills, to Abbey Road.

The arena-conquering duo glide from gritty rave to skyscraping arpeggios on RA.1000, a mix many years in the making. A new name undeniably entered the pantheon of major electronic live acts over the past decade: next to Faithless, The Prodigy and The Chemical Brothers, now sit @feelmybicep. The Belfast duo's music doesn't half reach for the stars: a melodic blend of ambient, breakbeat, trance and tech house, able to turn the biggest arenas into intimate affairs. If anything, mainstream success, BRIT Award nominations and mammoth dance crossovers like "Glue" have only hardened Andy Ferguson and Matt McBriar's resolve to keep innovating. Their prized blog, running for nearly as long as the RA Podcast, regularly platforms upcoming artists. And you won't find many festival headliners releasing climate change-themed records with Indigenous artists, as they did recently on Takkuuk. RA.1000 exists in that spirit. After many polite declines, and before a year off to usher in the next era, Bicep come through at the last: from dub techno and screwface breaks to São Paulo garage, before a tide of signature synths floods the zone. Stadium-sized intimacy at its finest. @feelmybicep Find the tracklist and interview at ra.co/podcast/1015.

John sits down with Scottish artist, producer and DJ Josh Mainnie, better known as Barry Can't Swim, and producer O' Flynn to discuss how they wrote and recorded the album ‘Loner'. Josh first began releasing under the alias Barry Can't Swim in 2019, releasing a stream of singles that began attracting attention for their melodic, dance-driven style. In 2023, he released his first full-length album, ‘When Will We Land?', which became a huge success, earning him nominations for the Mercury Prize and at the BRIT Awards. ‘Loner' released in July 2025, sees him reflect on his newfound fame and place in the industry, whilst maintaining his signature high energy beats and captivating soundscapes. Sitting down with Josh, and later with collaborator O'Flynn, the conversation dives into the album-making process. They explore Josh's sampling techniques, the ideal mindset and headspace for creating great music, and the stories behind capturing sounds from unexpected places, like the toilets of an Indian restaurant, and turning them into tracks.

Little Simz is a rapper from England who put out her first album in 2015. She's won the Mercury Prize, a Brit Award, and three MOBO awards. She also starred in the Netflix series Top Boy. Her most recent album is called Lotus. It came out in June 2025, and it followed a pretty tumultuous time in her career. For this episode, I got to talk to Little Simz about one of the songs from that album, called "Free," along with Miles Clinton James, who produced the track. Thanks to Sonos for their support of the podcast.

Anohni is a singer and songwriter originally from England, who started putting out music in 2000. She's released 6 albums, and won the Mercury Prize. She's also been nominated for two Brit Awards, and an Oscar. For this episode, I talked to her about the song "4 Degrees," from her 2016 album Hopelessness. It might be strange to describe a song about climate change as an anthem, but that's what I think it is, and it feels more urgent with every passing year. It's also one of my most listened-to songs. It was produced by two of my favorite electronic musicians: Daniel Lopatin, aka Oneohtrix Point Never, and Ross Birchard, aka Hudson Mohawke. I got to speak to Ross about how he started the track on his own, before it became a collaboration between the three of them. This is an episode that I've been trying to make happen since 2016. Here it is.For more info, visit songexploder.net/anohni.Thanks to Sonos for their support of the podcast. Check out sonos.com.

Tears for Fears is a duo formed in 1981 in Bath, England by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. They've sold over 30 million albums, starting with their first, The Hurting, which went to number one in the UK. But it was their second album, Songs from the Big Chair, that made them international stars. It came out in 1985, and had huge singles like “Shout” and "Head Over Heels.” But their biggest hit is “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” It won Best Single at the BRIT Awards in 1986, and it's been streamed over 2 billion times. So I talked to the two of them about how they, along with their producer Chris Hughes and keyboard player Ian Stanley, made a song that would help define the sound of the 80s.For more, visit songexploder.net/tears-for-fears.
