^^ I really like the acoustics on that one. Fun on headphones.

I just finished listening to a couple of songbirds new to me.

I Cry When I Laugh

I Cry When I Laugh
Jess Glynne
2015

Example:

Mostly dance oriented songs, that I liked, but I was I was drawn to her Adel style, and she can belt. 

and

Innocent Eyes (Ten Year Anniversary Acoustic Edition)

Innocent Eyes (Ten Year Anniversary Acoustic Edition)
Delta Goodrem
2003

Example:

Enjoyed her Tori Amos/Kate Bush style. I guess I like these two enough, but is it just because they sound like other singers that I love? I guess I will see if I listen to more of their stuff. 

If you like Tori Amos/Kate Bush then you will more than likely like this

At risk of stating the obvious (again), I'll pose the question: does anyone else notice their music tastes change as their audio gear improves?

I used to think Sonic Youth was my favorite band. But my audio setup just reveals noise, not nuance. Maybe there's another setup out there that provides separation for all those guitars...

I'm listening to Loretta Lynn all day today, starting with her Hymns, Don't Come Home a Drinkin', and the massive Honky Tonk Girl collection. My wife is Dutch and thought it was Dolly Parton...I quickly corrected her that she's listening to maybe the best country/folk singer America has produced.

Very not proggy

Let Go (20th Anniversary Edition)

Let Go (20th Anniversary Edition)
Avril Lavigne
2002 

https://album.link/i/1626353802

Example:

She's 20 years older - not me...

She could belt and there are hooks all over this album. I knew the first 5 songs off the top of my head, and I don't even listen to Avril that I can think of.

Also,

Top Gun: Maverick (Music From The Motion Picture)

Working over old material here - but still good music. Looks like TIDAL does not have rights to Kenny Loggins yet, so that that is a Fail!

Madman Across The Water (Deluxe Edition)
Elton John
1971

https://album.link/i/1618478418

Example (demo):

I have enjoyed the demos and some other live tracks. I probably won't listen to them much, but fun that they are there. The standard album tracks are just so good.

Can't help it, every time I hear this (great) song, I now think of this meme:

Prokofiev: Piano Concertos Nos. 4 & 5

Prokofiev: Piano Concertos Nos. 4 & 5
Vladimir Ashkenazy, London Symphony Orchestra, André Previn
1997

(Wrong! It is a 1976 reissue of the 1975 recordings of all 5 Concertos, stoopid TIDAL, don't you read Discogs?)

Example (from the 1975 albums):

Other than wishing there was an easy feedback loop for reporting bad info to TIDAL it is a good recording.
