Hey, do you like to infodump about music or have some favourite music tidbits in your back pocket? I'm going to be doing a series on the 1001 Other Albums blog tentatively called "Four Facts Fall" where in each post 3 said facts will focus on the album being spotlit but 1 will be a random music fact that I'll try somehow to make relevant, sorta like Airplane Facts with Max.
If you want to share a fact you love about music - music theory, history of an instrument/genre, how it impacts psychology, whatever - let me know!

Listening to Fitness: Run, August 2026 by Caleb Arredondo, Tiësto
Was thinking about "songs that formed me" (h/t @Waitnwallflower) and I realized I missed one of my biggest ones: "Sweetness and Light" by Lush.
Here I am, college student, 1990 or so, friend has MTV, and this song blasts out. I fell in love instantly. Cannot explain it but every single part of this song hit perfectly. And it still does, even after a ridiculously long time.
I'm so glad that Miki Berenyi and Emma Anderson are both still making music. Cheers to both of them, and a hat tip to the late Chris Acland as well.
