Taylor, Adele & Silk Sonic’s broken hearts club ( Switched on Pop 1)

 The first podcast I chose to listen to was published on November 23rd of this year and it's called “Taylor, Adele & Silk Sonic’s broken hearts club”. In this podcast they talk about songs about heartbreak and being sad about love. the history of the hit songs by Taylor Swift and Adele and their heartbreaking history with past relationships that have turned into their hit songs.  

First, they talk about Taylor and her new hit song “All Too Well” and her relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal. At this time when the song was taking place, she was younger and the relationship she had with Jake Gyllenhaal was viewed differently than how she views it now and that is what the song is about. It is how she perceives it now that she looks back on it and it is interesting how her perspective changes.  

The next song they talk about is Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak & Silk Sonic. With this song they talk about the song and the concept of “...the emotional confusion that we feel in a heartbreak” and how a lot of the songs that are popping off the charts right now are songs about heartbreak and confusion and the emotions everyone goes through when in this stage of our lives. In the song “Put on a Smile”, they talk about how they perceive the song as smiling and trying to cheer us up. They describe it as a hung up on your heartbreak, when you're stuck in the past and you're sad, but the song is trying to lift you up and cheer you up.
