Story
When Miranda Sawyer interviewed Liam Gallagher in 1994, his gag wishing Damon Albarn would die of AIDS became front-page news all over the world. This fascinating pop history, exploring the moment British music suddenly meant everything, explains why. Picking out twenty key songs, delving into the surprising stories behind them and their unlikely creators, UNCOMMON PEOPLE takes us back to when Jarvis Cocker became a national hero, films like Trainspotting were international hits, rave became what everybody did - and it felt like the revolution was happening.

Story
Released in 1998, Lauryn Hill’s first solo album is often cited by music critics as one of the most important recordings in modern history. Artists from Beyoncé to Nicki Minaj have claimed it as an inspiration, and it was recently included in the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress, as well as named the second greatest album by a woman in history by NPR (right behind Joni Mitchell’s Blue). Award-winning feminist author and journalist Joan Morgan delivers an expansive, in-depth, and heartfelt analysis of the album and its enduring place in pop culture.

Simply stated, Kurt Cobain changed the cultural conversation in his all-too-brief life, and even after his shattering death. With interviews and commentary from all corners of the pop culture universe, from the people who knew Cobain to those who continue to help his legend grow, Here We Are Now explores what a singular life meant, and how that meaning can be measured, when and if it can be.

Story
Wolfgang Kos erzählt das 20. Jahrhundert in 99 besonderen Liedern. Der historische Scheinwerfer richtet sich auf Zeitstimmungen, Lebensbedingungen und Moden ebenso wie auf kollektive Sehnsüchte, Ängste und neue Ideen, die mittels Songs unter die Leute kamen. In den Songs spiegeln sich Armut und Wohlstand, Konsumträume und Weltschmerz, gesellschaftliche oder Generationskonflikte. Songs "wirken", weil sie emotionale Identifikation bieten und unmittelbarer als andere Kulturmedien ihre Zeit und ihre Welt auf den Punkt bringen.
