Britt Daniel's pop songs

Spoon are one of those bands that are quiet achievers. Over 25 years they’ve put out 10 albums and toured all over the world… they’ve weirdly never become super famous, but have a very dedicated bunch of fans. And I say weirdly, cos frontman Britt Daniel knows how to write a hit.

He’s one of my favourite songwriters, and you can hear in Spoon’s songs and their curiosity that there’s a deep love for music and melody. From Sinatra to Prince to Gambino, this is a fall down the rabbit hole of a great musical mind.

• Gloria Jones - Tainted Love
• Frank Sinatra - Strangers in the Night
• Prince - If I Was Your Girlfriend
• AC/DC - Rock And Roll Damnation
• Childish Gambino - Redbone
