This is from one of my favorite albums from last year, West End Girl - Lily Allen certainly had something on her heart. Amazing story telling! Listen to the whole album to find out why!

So I guess 2026 is the year where I'll find music with something on the heart (as you would say in danish). My daughter loves this artist - and I think she has really good taste!
