Our Take
Ah, Billy Bragg, the man who can make even the most mundane topics sound like anthems of the working class. His latest album, "The Million Things That Never Happened," is a reflective journey through life's missed opportunities and lost moments. Bragg's wit shines through in tracks like "Goodbye, Goodbye" where he laments the things left unsaid in a relationship. The jaunty guitar riffs add a touch of optimism to an otherwise melancholic tune. On "Sisyphus," Bragg tackles the eternal struggle of pushing a boulder uphill, both metaphorically and literally. The slow build of the song mirrors the frustration of never quite reaching the top, but the cathartic release in the chorus is pure bliss. The album's title track, "The Million Things That Never Happened," is a somber ballad that reflects on the road not taken. Bragg's soulful vocals are at their best here, conveying a sense of longing and regret that is palpable. Overall, "The Million Things That Never Happened" is a poignant and introspective album that showcases Bragg's songwriting prowess. It may not be his most upbeat work, but it is certainly one of his most heartfelt. Billy Bragg continues to prove why he is a stalwart of the folk-punk genre, and this album is no exception. A must-listen for fans of thoughtful and moving music.
