Wildcard (week 5):
Confidence Man – Feels Like A Different Thing
Iâve mentioned it before, but Iâve got the impression the â80s influences in todayâs pop music are slowly shifting towards the early â90s. Take Confidence Manâs brilliant new single for instance. Itâs called Feels Like A Different Thing, but it sounds wonderfully familiar. It made me think of Right Said Fredâs Iâm Too Sexy and Going Back To My Roots by FPI Project. House piano galore, and that gospel vibe is an absolute bliss. What a banger!
The Australian duo say about their new single: âFeels Like A Different Thing isnât here to mess around. Two lyrics, one riff, no fuss. Itâll get your blood pumping. Itâll make your ears bleed (in a good way). Itâll steal your car and burn down your house and youâll still say thanks.â
Following last yearâs Holiday, Feels Like A Different Thing is the second track to be released ahead of the bandâs sophomore album Tilt. Itâs due out on 1 April, a date thatâs marked in our agenda in flickering red neon lights. For starters, the new single is this weekâs Carte Blanche Music Wildcard, so itâll feature at the top of the blog for a full seven days.

Elisa – Showâs Rollinâ
2022 marks the 25th anniversary of Elisa Toffoliâs debut album Pipes And Flowers. And Iâm old enough to be able to say I played its singles Sleeping In Your Hand and Labyrinth a lot on the radio at the time. A lot has happened since then. For both of us⊠đ
21 years after Elisa won the prestigious Sanremo Festival, the artist is about to put out her double album Ritorno Al Futuro/Back To The Future. Thatâs right, itâll contain one disc in Italian and the other in English. Ahead of its 18 February release, the opening songs of both discs – A Tempo Perso and Showâs Rollinâ – have been served up as singles.
The latter is my favourite of the two. Showâs Rollinâ has a soulful vibe and gospel-like choirs. Elisa calls the song âthe curtain that opens on Back To The Futureâ. She continues: âIâd like to go back to the future, but Iâd like to go back in order to change something. To save whatâs precious and to let go of the redundant stuff.â
