The musician Florence Welch, photographed in London on July 5, 2024. For nearly two decades, Florence Welch’s songs have offered a mythic view not only of pop music but of the glories and rages of being a female artist today. When I rang the Camberwell, South London, doorbell of Florence Welch, I held a tribute: “The Penguin Book of Spiritual Verse” (2022), edited by Kaveh Akbar. An aversion to definition is a great gift to an artist like Welch. Art begins in the body; art is limited by the limitations of the body; at some point, art exceeds the body and can live beyond the scope of flesh.

Art begins in the body; art is limited by the limitations of the body; at some point, art exceeds the body and can live beyond the scope of flesh.

Exacerbating the mixed craving for and fear of having a baby and what it would mean for her art, Welch feels the intense pressure of aging as a female performer. In the latter part of the song, Welch raises her voice in a long howl of rage. Art begins in the body; art is limited by the limitations of the body; at some point, art exceeds the body and can live beyond the scope of flesh.

☆ Joan of Arc: Why does her image still resonate?
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-15 | by ( Tacita Quinn | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +8 min

CNN —More than 800 years after her birth, Joan of Arc — a patron saint of France — remains an object of not just historical, but cultural fascination. Humble beginningsOne of five children in a peasant family in Domrémy, in north-eastern France, Joan was born in the year 1412. The Amazonian image of Joan of Arc in armor is perhaps the most recurrent one in popular culture, inspiring thousands, if not hundreds and thousands, of similar depictions. It also provided the inspiration for Carl Theodore Dreyer’s silent film The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) starring Renée Jeanne Falconetti. She is also a cautionary tale for young women, a brutal warning of the fickle nature of celebrity and a symbol of morality and strength.

Gen X musicians often inspire Rodrigo's music. download the app Email address Sign up By clicking “Sign Up”, you accept our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy . Rodrigo has long paid dues to her Gen X predecessors, calling them a huge inspiration to her music. On her most recent album, "GUTS," the singer told Rolling Stone that she tapped into tunes from the all-woman ensemble Babes in Toyland to help craft "All-American Bitch" — a song questioning misogynistic expectations. It's clear that she's gaining some street cred among Gen X: Of course, she is buddies with Stefani.

☆ Something is up with Spotify Wrapped's new feature — it's telling way too many people they belong in Burlington, Vermont
▼ + stars: | 2023-11-30 | by ( Kylie Kirschner | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

People first started noticing the trend on social media — when everyone started posting their Spotify Wrapped, as is tradition — and thought it was a glitch on Spotify's end. But it turns out that Burlington is just representative of the listening habits of a disproportionately high number of Spotify users. Advertisement"Did Your Spotify Wrapped Place You In Burlington, Berkeley, or Cambridge? You May Be Gay," Queer outlet Them wrote, referencing how queer Spotify users seemed to be getting overwhelmingly assigned to Burlington, Berkeley, or Cambridge. Berkeley was the Sound Town for 0.3% of all Spotify users, while 0.1% of users were assigned to Cambridge, Spotify told BI.

☆ ‘The Idol’ Series Premiere Recap: Does it Live Up (or Down) to the Hype?

Season 1, Episode 1: ‘Pop Tarts & Rat Tales’In the background of an early scene in the new HBO series “The Idol” you can hear Fiona Apple’s 1990s hit “Criminal.” The pop star heroine of the series, Jocelyn (Lily-Rose Depp), is posing for her album cover. Areolas are not allowed per the nudity rider — a detail that neither Jocelyn nor her team seem to care about. As Apple’s track plays, two of the members of Jocelyn’s entourage describe her alternately as Brigitte Bardot and Sharon Tate — the latter reference, to the actress and Manson murder victim, is meant to make you shudder. Still, the use of “Criminal” stood out to me among the onslaught of cultural references Sam Levinson throws at the audience. (Levinson, who created the series with Tesfaye and Reza Fahim, wrote and directed Sunday’s premiere.)

☆ Tiny Love Stories: ‘If Our Lives Were Novels’

Echo ChamberWe are an echo chamber of the best variety, repeating niche platitudes back and forth until we tire of affirmation. There is so much solace to be found in the female spirit, in listening to Fiona Apple and smoking out the window of my Paris apartment. My friend doesn’t need to excuse her mistakes, nor I mine; we accept each other’s missteps and celebrate our imperfections. We visit the Louvre and have the same conversations we had in the pallid light of our Philadelphia apartment. I think if our lives were novels, we’d pick the same epigraph.
