The Broadcast
"Good morning, Fort Brunsett, Tamarack Falls, all of you lovey listeners that can tune in... and, of course, to you lovely people outside of Vermont listening via our webstream. This is Her Royal Majesty Amanda Green and I am bringing you New Music Friday on behalf of WFBR Fort Brunsett Radio. Now then, let's start by say... listeners? My lovely, lovely listeners? I have had quite the week!" Amanda Green says, her beautifully English accented voice transmitted through radiowaves far and wide. "Exhausting, really, even if I've had many a good night sleep. It would seem appropriate that this week's new music is low energy. The industry recognizing my..." There's a breath, then a yawn. "Current state." There's a pause, then a soft laugh. "Let's get started with the latest from Miley Cyrus. This is Week Without You." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIdwrnp0g1k Miley Cyrus - Week Without You
"Mmmm... I could say something about that song. I could dedicate it out. Break it down. Talk about... meaning," Green says, as she's back on the mike. "But I won't!" she says, a bright smile easily heard in her voice. "Once more, this is Amanda Green broadcasting from the WFBR studios. Want to chat? Got a recommendation? Give me a call! Text in! Keep me entertained as I keep you entertained," Green says. "We're going to move on from Miley Cyrus to... Noah Cyrus. That would be Miley's younger sister. A mere seventeen years old, and she's giving us... Again." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_SjnHwxWMU Noah Cyrus - Again
"My greatest accomplishment at seventeen years old was making it to exams sober..." Green says, her tone almost conspiratorial. "To imagine being a pop star... of the not Disney variety...? Well." Green pauses, then clears her throat. "Which isn't to say anyone should be drinking at seventeen! Respect your local laws, please!" Another clearing of her throat. "There's Macklemore and Kesha, who have teamed up to give us... Gold Old Days." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUffrvUjwCY Macklemore ft Kesha - Good Old Days
"Hard not to love Macklemore. Hard not to love Kesha. It's a lovely song, that one. And this next, well... why would I play it if it were not lovely?" Green asks, with a little laugh. "This is from a green-haired Finnish woman called ALMA. It's titled Phases and features French Montana." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsMnyr5Xezw ALMA & French Montana - Phases
"We'll move right along to a group I plan to watch closely... They're called the Shadowboxers, and they've been picked up by Justin Timberlake. Who is one of the most incredible men alive. Maybe," Green says. "I'll keep this bit of energy going with Hot Damn-... Can I say that on the air...?" https://soundcloud.com/theshadowboxers/hot-damn The Shadowboxers - Hot Damn!
"I love the energy, I love the excitement, I love it. I do," says the perfectly prim and proper and entirely English voice of Amanda Green. "And now... let's slow down. Way, way down. This is CHVRCHES covering Tegan and Sara's Call It Off." https://youtu.be/0hK_n9CNRCc CHVRCHES - Call it Off
"That was CHVRCHES covering Tegan and Sara. And this is Her Royal Majesty Amanda Green broadcasting live from WFBR Fort Brunsett Radio studios. I am here as your dedicated servant, bringing to you New Music for your Friday. Or maybe I'm here to grace you with my presence, seeking from you worship and adoration? ... Either way, this is new from Walk The Moon. It's called One Foot." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05v4nfUmBYI Walk the Moon - One Foot
"Did we enjoy that? Surely it's not quite the slapper that Walk the Moon has previously put out. But I think it's a nice song," Amanda Green says as she returns to the airwaves. "And now we move on to something different. This is Maggie Rogers with Split Stones." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHi5jq2P_Zk Maggie Rogers - Split Stones
"We're already nearing the end of our show... just two songs left to go. Sad, innit? If only I could be with you all... forever," Green says, her sigh entirely overdone. Lament! She takes in a deep breath, and then her voice is back, clearly pleased. "Charlotte Gainsbourg is the daughter of her father, who some of you may know. An actress and a singer, she. New from her, this is Deadly Valentine." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkyIVKbCfG8 Charlotte Gainsbourg - Deadly Valentine
"It has been a pleasure to spend Friday with you, Fort Brunsett. I hope you all enjoyed this as much as I did. I hope, also, that you all get a chance to go outside! High of seventy seven today, going up to eighty two tomorrow. Clear skies and a tiny sliver of a moon... Seems Summer is not yet ready to yield to Autumn. I wonder how long the fight will last?" Green asks. "This has been New Music Friday with your host Amanda Green. And to play you out, this is an older song that finally was properly released. From Hiss Golden Messenger, this is... John The Gun." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owcN4GDB-g4 Hiss Golden Messenger - John The Gun
