Click to listen to John Doe's 'Never Enough'

"Never Enough," the first track from John Doe's upcoming album Keeper, finds the rocker sounding as spirited and intense as when he was the frontman of the legendary punk rock band X in the Eighties. The song, a brisk rave-up complete with zippy horn blasts, soulful backing vocals and inspired lead guitar licks, sets the pace for an album that's noticeably more optimistic and upbeat than Doe's previous solo set, which had focused on a bleak country rock sound. Keeper won't be in stores until August 30th, but you can stream the song now.

“Youth Knows No Pain”

Lykke Li | 2011

“Like on 'Youth Knows No Pain' — we are the ones that should demonstrate, because we can take it,” Likke Li said. “We can pierce ourselves, take Ecstasy, dance all night and still go to work at our McDonald's jobs.” Despite the hedonistic sentiment in the song, the Swedish singer also admitted in hindsight her youth had repercussions. “I remember when I was 18-19 and feeling that I know it all,” Li said. “I always feel that I know it all. But that song is about realizing you don’t, and reflecting, ‘Boy, if I only knew what would follow.’”
