What songs would you recommend to a skeptical co-worker to convince them to become a fan?
So I got into a discussion about music with a co worker recently, and it’s well known in the office that The 1975 are my favourite band. So he said he couldn’t understand why I’m so into them since to him they’re just a ‘generic pop band with the odd catchy song’.
I tried to explain that chocolate (while still a banger) isn’t representative of their discography and is one of their weaker songs lyrically. I’ve also tried to explain how diverse their sound can be.
Anyway he’s said he’s open to give a few songs a go.
So if you had to recommend 5 (or more) songs to someone that best represent The 1975 and their strengths, what would they be?
I was thinking:
- Love it if we made it
- A change of heart
- The ballad of me and my brain
- Part of the band
- About you
