"A Mulher do Fim do Mundo" by Elza Soares

Song: A Mulher do Fim do Mundo
Artist: Elza Soares
Album: A Mulher do Fim do Mundo (The Woman at the End of the World)
Commentary: Great album. As per usual, somewhat "non-standard" vocals make me love it all the more. Elza Soares, age 79, makes a great album.

"I Remember" by Scott Seskind

Song: I Remember
Artist: Scott Seskind
Album: Sky Girl (2016), also Chance (1991)
Also try:  the rest of the Sky Girl compilation
Commentary: A fine song from an awesome compilation by French DJs Julien Dechery and DJ Sundae. "Sarra" and "I wouldn't dream of it" also stood out musically to me (despite how creepy and rapey the latter is). But really, I like this compilation. Well-curated.

"Frankie Sinatra" by The Avalanches

Song: Frankie Sinatra
Artist: The Avalanches
Album: Wildflower
Commentary: If you read that the Avalanches were an electronic music duo, you would not expect this album. It's heavily samples based with lots of rap, rock, and pop. I really enjoyed it. And this lead single is the most fun.
