How Do They Do It?

We all have our collection of favorite songs. Whether it bring us back to a different time, inspires, evokes sadness or longing, or just has a great beat. The best songs have a unique combination of rhythm, melody and storytelling/concepts that stirs us on an emotional and cognitive level.

Our first official blog post for Sound & Vision dives in head first and showcase some of our favorite songs (from the collective wisdom of the Sound & Vision staff). While this analysis is completely subjective, we are confident – if we look at these songs from the concepts highlighted above – these hit the mark. All comments welcome!

You should examine the relavance of early Echo and The Bunnymen, during the Reagan years, while watching the Iran Contra hearings on television. Col. North should have "Done it Clean" or "Spared us the Cutter" or is he "Going Up".
