Weekly Music Review Poll
Sultans of Swing is quite possibly the most well-known song by Dire Straights, and is known for an "inescapable hook" and its breezy finger-picking style. The song's title was inspired by a Dixieland jazz band that played on the street corner in London, amusing Dire Straights's lead singer with their disheveled look that didn't match their name.

“Miriam Kramnick (1978) is one of the few commentators on Wollstonecraft who outlines the nature of the ridicule she was subjected to and the significance of this form of sexual harassment. Wollstonecraft was the recipient of 'barely printable insults', states Kramnick. ‘Her own contemporaries called her a shameless wanton, a "hyena in petticoats", a "philosophizing serpent" or wrote jibing epigrams in the Anti-Jacobin Review, like
For Mary verily would wear the breeches
God help poor silly men for such usurping b…..s
Twentieth-century readers have called her an archetypal castrating female, "God's angry woman", a man hater whose feminist crusade was inspired by nothing more than a hopeless, incurable affliction — penis envy’ (ibid., p. 7).
Even feminists have been careful about associating with her and: ‘The name "Wollstonecraft", once considered synonymous with the destruction of all sacred virtues, disowned by the feminist movement as it marched for votes or pressed for admission to universities, became an obscure reference indeed’ (ibid., p. 8). When women sought to convince men that they were honourable, respectable, and deserving of equal representation in the institutions men had created for themselves, there was little room for Wollstonecraft, who had challenged those institutions and who had gained a ‘reputation.’
Like many of the reviews of Aphra Behn, some of the reviews of Wollstonecraft's work and life, on her death, were vicious. Her work should be read, declared the Historical Magazine (1799), ‘with disgust by any female who has any pretensions to delicacy; with detestation by everyone attached to the interests of religion and morality, and with indignation by anyone who might feel any regard for the unhappy woman, whose frailties should have been buried in oblivion’ (vol. I, p. 34). This was about as far as critics could go in the pre-Freudian days, but once he had made his priceless contribution, the attack on women who did not conform to the precepts dictated by men assumed a new and greater ferocity.
‘Mary Wollstonecraft was an extreme neurotic of a compulsive type,' argue Ferdinand Lundberg and Marynia Farnham (1959) in Modern Woman: The Lost Sex. Out of her illness arose the ideology of feminism, which was to express the feelings of so many women in years to come. Unconsciously ... Mary and the feminists wanted ... to turn on men and injure them.... Underneath her aggressive writings, Mary was a masochist like her mother, as indeed all the leading feminist theorists were in fact.... By behaving as she did Mary indicated.... that she was unconsciously seeking to deprive the male of his power, to castrate him. It came out in her round scolding of men. The feminists have ever since symbolically slain their fathers by verbally consigning all men to perdition as monsters' (pp. 159-61). Really?
With the framework formulated by Freud, it again became easy to ridicule and harass women who developed any analysis of patriarchy, to dismiss them without having to refute their ideas. The scientific dogma took over from the religious dogma which had been seriously discredited (by women like Wollstonecraft) and both these male-decreed belief systems have been used ruthlessly against individual women and against women collectively. In her own day Mary Wollstonecraft was maligned for her moral sickness; with the advent of Freud it was her mental sickness. The principle is the same and it was a principle that Wollstonecraft herself identified and discredited - the principle that if women do not cheerfully confine themselves to the place to which men have relegated them, then there is something wrong with the women rather than the place they are expected to occupy. Mary Wollstonecraft understood that women would continue to be perceived as abnormal while the limited experience of men was treated as the sum total of human experience. One of her main protests was that men did not know how the world looked to women and, while they insisted that it looked no different from the way it looked to men, women were without space to discuss, share and confirm their feelings and ideas. And in this, Wollstonecraft is one of a long line of women who have come to understand the significance of male power to name the world and to say what is and what is not important, valuable, and ‘logical’.”

Someone recommended Aurora a while back and I have been enjoying her music ever since. She kind of feels like the anti-Grimes. She has a very weird energy but it's cute and fun rather than disconcerting and problematic.
I also like how she sings the word "woolves."
A lot of singers from other countries end up sounding like they have an American Standard accent. (There are various reasons for this and it is actually very interesting. I think Mary Spender did a video on it.) But Aurora's accent is still very present in her singing and I like that.

thought I'd ask you, do you follow any video essayists on youtube that talk about music, music history, etc?
That is mostly what I use youtube for lol. Although most of the music channels I follow focus more on curating chart info and stats, but I follow a number of music analysts too.
Here are the channels I'm subscribed to (and please send me recs if you have any)
_crustbag_ - posts videos on a variety of topics, but his videos on noise music and metal are a delight
12tone - focuses more on music theory with a really fun and captivating video format.
Adam Neely - video essays with a heaping serving of music theory. I am too dumb to understand what he's saying most of the time, but gosh darn it he makes it sound interesting (this is my bias, but I love his videos that go into music law).
Aimee Nolte Music - you like jazz? (no seriously, she's an excellent jazz pianist who makes excellent videos on the subject. I really learned a lot about music structure from her)
Digging the Greats - deep dives into classic artists/albums, with an emphasis on rap and hip-hop.
F.D Signifier - not a music channel per se (more of a culture commentator if I had to give him a label), but his video essays that delve into music are so good and thorough that I had to include him.
HipHopMadness - lots of really good video essays about hip hop and rap culture.
Madisyn Brown - also more of a culture commentator, but she has plenty of videos about pop music and pop music culture. She's also a musician and her songs are bops.
Mary Spender - mostly creates videos about the guitar as well as specific details of the music industry from the perspective of someone who works in it
Mic the Snare - deep dives into specific artist's discographies as well as music history and technology
More Music Shows - reuploads a lot of music specials/documentaries that aired on television
Music Video Time - video essay channel that focuses on music videos and their history/production
Pad Chennington - delves more into darker music subjects as well as underground and outsider music
Sideways - music, theater, and musical theater (that's simplifying things too much, his videos are very thorough)
Todd in the Shadows - focuses more on pop music, but delves into some interesting corners of pop music history
Volksgeist - reviews of current releases as well as video essays about music culture
I'll add to this list if I missed any. I'll try to add some non-youtube sources as well
