30 December 2025 - Fionn - I Put My Makeup On

The SECOND biggest personal surprise to me on last week's list was Fionn's album scum. clawing all the way up to number 16.  (The biggest was my #1. Seriously)

It deserved it, though.  It was a power-pop girl-power masterclass from two women who themselves started a lot folkier than this. The Finn-Morris twins have created a sarcastic, compelling sound that finally started to break through to mainstream audiences in 2025.  

This is my favorite single from the album - one that evokes feelings of early Spoon while keeping their Vancouver-based Celtic-influenced sound intact - and definitely one of my favorite singles of the year overall by any artist.
