What if great friendships aren't found by luck but built through effort?Bestselling novelist Fredrik Backman, the mind behind A Man Called Ove (adapted into the Tom Hanks film A Man Called Otto), Anxious People, and the beloved Beartown series, has spent his career writing about the quiet power of ordinary people. But in his real life, he learned one of his most important lessons from his best friend of 30 years: meaningful friendship is a skill you develop, not a lottery you win.Despite being a self-described introvert, Fredrik discovered that you don't need hundreds of friends. You only get a few humans who truly shape your life. His newest book, My Friends, is a tribute to those relationships and the daily work of showing up for the people who matter most.In this candid and inspiring conversation, Fredrik and I talk about the healing power of friendship, why differences make relationships stronger, the value of having friends who edit us, and the joy of being genuinely happy for someone else.If you want to become a better friend and build deeper connections, this episode offers heartfelt lessons from one of the world's most compassionate storytellers.This is A Bit of Optimism.---------------------------This episode is brought to you by the Porsche USA Macan---------------------------To check out Fredrik's newest book, “My Friends,” visit: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/My-Friends/Fredrik-Backman/9781982112820Find the full-length speech Fredrik gave for Simon & Schuster here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSuSyZ92Cjg

Wet Wet Wet: Hits, Heartbreak & The Journey Forward

A Breath of Fresh Air

This week, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Graeme Clark, founding bassist of Wet Wet Wet, and the band's newest frontman, Kevin Simm. Together, they take us on a journey through the band's humble beginnings, meteoric rise to fame, their unforgettable hit Love Is All Around, and how they've kept the magic alive four decades later.Wet Wet Wet formed back in 1982 in Glasgow, Scotland. For Graeme and his school friends, music wasn't just a hobby—it was an escape from the bleak job prospects that faced so many young people at the time. With shipyards closed and unemployment sky-high, the boys turned their energy towards music.None of them were formally trained. What they lacked in technical skills, they made up for in passion and persistence. Graeme picked up the bass because of his love for reggae, Tommy was already playing drums, Neil joined in on keyboards, and Marty Pellow took the mic as lead vocalist. It wasn't long before they realised they had something special.In 87, Wet Wet Wet released their debut single. To their amazement, the track shot up the charts. Following their early success, the band toured relentlessly, even opening for Elton John in America. Although they never quite cracked the U.S., their popularity soared across the UK, Europe, and Australia.A major turning point came in 88 when their version of With a Little Help from My Friends went to number one in the UK. The song that defined Wet Wet Wet's career was their 94 cover of The Troggs' classic Love Is All Around. Chosen for the soundtrack of Four Weddings and a Funeral, the band thought it might make a decent B-side.But once it was released, it exploded worldwide. Spending 15 consecutive weeks at number one in the UK, the single became the country's best-selling love ballad of the decade. The success was so overwhelming that the band eventually pulled the record from sale—otherwise, it might have stayed at the top indefinitely!Like many hugely successful bands, Wet Wet Wet eventually hit a wall. After years of constant touring and chart domination, tensions and different ambitions led to a split. Graeme reflects on this period as both exhilarating and challenging. Eventually, the band regrouped in the 2000s, realising that their chemistry was too strong to leave behind.In 2018, following Marty Pellow's departure, Wet Wet Wet welcomed Kevin Simm as their new lead singer. Kevin had already won The Voice UK in 2016.Kevin brought fresh energy to the band, not just as a performer but also as a songwriter. Together, he and Graeme started writing new material, determined to keep Wet Wet Wet moving forward.Their 2021 album, The Journey, proved that the band could still create relevant, heartfelt music. Nearly 40 years after their formation, Wet Wet Wet continue to perform and record, delighting audiences with classics like Sweet Little Mystery, Goodnight Girl, and of course, Love Is All Around. At the same time, they're carving out a new chapter with Kevin at the helm.For Graeme, success today isn't about topping charts or selling millions of records—it's about contentment, creativity, and connection. What makes Wet Wet Wet so timeless? Maybe it's their working-class roots, which make their story relatable. Maybe it's their knack for writing songs that speak to life's ups and downs. Or maybe it's the fact that their music has been woven into the soundtrack of so many of our lives.From Glasgow's back rooms to global arenas, from B-sides to record-breaking hits, Wet Wet Wet have weathered every storm and come out stronger. With Kevin Simm breathing new life into the group, their journey is far from over.#wetwetwet #80sbritishbands #90spopmusic

From holiday-season chaos to surprising customer favorites, Gayle shares what worked, what didn't, and why she still handpicks every title on the shelves — plus the biggest lessons (and mistakes) from year one. Plus, Gayle shares some great book recommendations. This post contains affiliate links through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!).

How the store's first year compared to their original projections and expectations. The now-dispelled fears Gayle had before opening. Why she's glad they curated every book in their inventory themselves, and why they still do all the book buying in-house. The course correction Wonderland had to make in their romance section. The biggest mistake they made before opening their doors. Which genres and titles have become customer favorites and which don't seem to sell well. How they plan and host book events — and why those events are such a key part of the store's community success. The books that taught them exactly how (and how not) to decide how many copies to order. The surprising punch poetry has packed with customers.

A visit from my cousin Gayle. We enjoyed a great pool day on Sunday and dinner in our town Monday night followed by a walk along the harbor. Gayle chose Mom's Trickle shawl as the item she wanted of hers. I took a photo of her and Google photos turned it into a pop-out. Trickle Shawl- Ravelry | LoveCrafts I gifted Gayle the pair of Stranger Things 2 socks from DVD as an early birthday gift and she sent me a cute photo of her wearing them the next morning. Great customer service from an Etsy maker to order pins. I had fun putting together photos Millie, Teaghan and Rhiannon asked me to take a couple weekends ago at the pool of them jumping off the diving board and making their bodies into the shape of the letters of the alphabet. Fun memories!   Quote of the Week “It's not hotels and nightclubs I crave, or even spectacular beaches -- it's isolation and solitude, time away from the human world and a chance to measure life on a different kind of yardstick.” ― Peter S.

email: rockpoprollpodcast@gmail.com website: www.rockpopandroll.com (Some of) My Favorite Covers: From the earliest days of rock and roll, cover songs have been a vital part of the music's forward movement, drawing on its past. Long before we knew about digital discovery, one of the fastest ways for new artists to connect with audiences was to reimagine an existing hit and put it on an album or 45—infusing it with their own style, energy, and attitude. A Chuck Berry riff might get filtered through the Beatles' harmonies, or an old blues song could get a new spin in the hands of the Rolling Stones. Musicians have always looked back to reinterpret the songs that shaped them, essentially creating a conversation across decades of music. Great rock and roll covers often redefine the song. Jimi Hendrix's “All Along the Watchtower” transformed Bob Dylan's stark folk ballad into a guitar-rock, psychedelic stomper. Aretha Franklin took Otis Redding's “Respect” and made it a soul-rock anthem of empowerment. Nirvana's raw take on David Bowie's "The Man Who Sold the World" introduced the track to an entirely new audience. In each case, the cover didn't just honor the original—it expanded its reach. The best covers don't just repeat the past—they rewrite it, proving that a great song can live many lives. 10 Iconic Rock and Roll Covers and How They Transformed the Original Jimi Hendrix – All Along the Watchtower (1968) Originally by Bob Dylan, Hendrix electrified the song with guitars and redefined it as a rock classic. Dylan himself later performed it in Hendrix's style. The Beatles – Twist and Shout (1963) Originally recorded by The Top Notes and popularized by The Isley Brothers, the Beatles turned it into their own via John Lennon's famously shredded vocal take. Aretha Franklin – Respect (1967) Originally by Otis Redding, Aretha flipped the perspective, injecting it with feminist firepower, gospel-inspired vocals, and made it an anthem for empowerment and equality. The Rolling Stones – Little Red Rooster (1964) Originally by Willie Dixon (recorded by Howlin' Wolf), the Stones slowed it down, leaning into the deep Chicago blues feel, introducing American blues to a younger audience. Nirvana – The Man Who Sold the World (1993) Originally by David Bowie, Nirvana's MTV Unplugged version stripped it to a haunting acoustic vibe that resonated with '90s alternative fans - and (re)introduced Bowie to them, Joe Cocker – With a Little Help from My Friends (1968) Originally by The Beatles, Cocker turned the Sgt. Pepper and Ringo song into a soulful, slow-burning rocker.  Killer organ and gospel vocals. Janis Joplin – Piece of My Heart (1968) Originally by Erma Franklin, Joplin's version with Big Brother and the Holding Company was a raw and bluesy. The Clash – I Fought the Law (1979) Written in 1958 and first released in 1960 by The Crickets (after Buddy Holly left) and popularized by The Bobby Fuller Four, The Clash injected punk. It was their first single in the United States. Creedence Clearwater Revival – I Heard It Through the Grapevine (1970) Originally by Gladys Knight & The Pips and made famous by Marvin Gaye, CCR turned the Motown hit into an 11-minute swamp-rock jam. Jeff Buckley – Hallelujah (1994) Originally by Leonard Cohen, Buckley's haunting performance influenced artists in the decades that followed. Further Listening: 4 Lesser-Known but Brilliant Beatles Covers The Black Keys – She Said, She Said (2002) A gritty, stripped-down garage-rock take on The Beatles' psychedelic classic from Revolver. Siouxsie and the Banshees – Dear Prudence (1983) The Beatles' ballad morphs in goth-tinged new wave.. Gov't Mule – She Said, She Said / Tomorrow Never Knows (1998) A jam-band fusion of two Beatles tracks Fiona Apple – Across the Universe (1998) Slowed to a languid pace, Apple leans into the cosmic melancholy
