'1950', King Princess
I chalk it up to my age to justify me not knowing too much going on in the pop world. There are so many songs that I hear, and I’m like “Who is this?” just like my mom used to do with me while I was singing ‘…Baby One More Time’ in the backseat of the car. I recently heard about King Princess through a colleague. He recommended I listen to ‘1950’, a song of hers released in 2018. I listened to it on my ride home and was in awe. It’s simple yet complex, perfect combination for a great pop song. I think it may be time to stop saying I’m too old to check out new stuff.
