#10  ThePerfectSongFor .. changing your mind

--:--
Did you every hate a band, or a singer, or a musician ... and then somebody played you one song that changed your mind. All of a sudden, the band you though was average becomes unexpectedly great, or at least moderately listenable. Or you didn't know the band at all, and one song raised them to championship status. Here are six songs that might change your mind, or make up your mind .. and we choose the perfect song that, we think, will make all the difference. The contenders are: The Triffids - Wide Open Road; Carole King - I Feel The Earth Move ; Magnolia Electric Company - The Dark Don't Hide It; Coldplay - Amsterdam; The Replacements - Here Comes The Regulars; Billy Joel - Vienna. Contacts us with your ideas/suggestions on perfectsongfor@gmail.com, and on the socials X: @perfectsongfor_ insta: #perfectsongfor or, if you are feeling generous, patreon.com/ThePerfectSongFor
