Any Day Now is the sixth studio album by Dutch band “Krezip.” It is a collection of songs about seeing life in a completely different light and experiencing it in a new way, about how the familiar disappears and how things sometimes fall into place as a result.

Michael Barratt, known professionally as “Shakin’ Stevens,” is a Welsh singer and songwriter. He was the UK’s biggest-selling singles artist of the 1980’s. His recording career began in the late 1960s but it was not until 1980 that his commercial success really began. In the UK alone “Shaky” has charted 33 Top 40 hit singles including the four chart-toppers This Ole House, Green Door, Oh Julie, and Merry Christmas Everyone. His last Top 40 single was Trouble in 2005.
Shakin’ Stevens has released a new single, the catchy rocker All You Need Is Greed. The song has received some fantastic reactions online, with many likening the now 75-year-old Welshman’s latest recording to the late-career reinvention of Johnny Cash.
The song is taken from his new album, Re-Set, which has already been described as “a seriously good album” by some reviewers. Shaky himself has commented:
“Most of the problems we now face in our world have been brought about by the intense and selfish desire for excessive material gain, control and power over others. It may start as need, but quickly intensifies and translates into greed with no thought about the effect on others.”
All You Need Is Greed by Shakin’ Stevens is new this week on RadiJohan.
“Leah” is a Canadian Symphonic – Celtic Metal artist who first came to RadiJohan’s attention in 2019 with her singles Redemption and Light of The World. She is an independent artist and mother who prides herself in raising her five children at home.
Leah is currently working on her fifth full length album. She is a big lover of freedom and liberty and loves to mix old history themes with modern struggles which is evident in the lyrics of her new single Before This War is Over.
“The message of the song is that even in the midst of war, we can have victory. Even in the presence of struggle and great evil, we can prevail, thrive and WIN. So, though it’s a heavier lyrical theme, the real message is victory.“
Before This War is Over by Leah is new this week on RadiJohan.
This week in 1989 Michael Jackson, wearing a wig and fake Moustache, entered a jewelry store in California. Security thought he looked like a suspicious person and called the police. Michael, who wore the disguise in order to do some shopping without the drama of being recognised by fans, discovered that wearing a disguise to a jewelry store only replaced one drama with another.

This week in 1977 Jim Steinman’s play Neverland, a futuristic rock version of Peter Pan opened at the Kennedy Center for the performing arts in Washington, DC. It’s run lasted only six days. However, just five months later, three of the songs Steinman wrote for the production, All Revved Up With No Place to Go, Bat Out of Hell and Heaven Can Wait, appeared on Meat Loaf’s album Bat Out Of Hell.
Bat Out of Hell was initially rejected by many record companies but today it is still one of the 10 best-selling albums of all time.
“Shinedown” are an American rock band from Jacksonville, Florida, formed in 2001. They have released seven studio albums to date, including their latest, Planet Zero. They are no strangers to success and hold the record of most number 1’s in the 40 year history of the “Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs Chart.”
Shinedown’s lead singer, Brent Smith, believes their latest single, A Symptom of Being Human, to be the most important song off the Planet Zero album.
“A Symptom Of Being Human is a deep breath in the face of an ever-changing world. Everyone’s story is different. As human beings, we are all unique, and that’s what makes us individuals. We will all experience highs, and lows in our lifetime. We will all be put to the test, and the challenges of everyday life. So embrace it, don’t run away from it. Live every moment to the fullest, and don’t worry… It’s all just a symptom of being human.”
