Twentysomething

Product Information

Further to what I said before I’d also like to say that it really keeps me inspired and humbled. It’s a little like scheduling in proper listening. It’s so easy to do things like listening, in a scattered way, especially now some of the music streaming services are actively trying to be more like TikTok. It goes against how I feel about listening to music which is: if the music is good, you will be rewarded by deeper listening. By doing that dive, listening every week, preparing a playlist of old and new and then presenting it on the radio, you’re constantly aware of what’s out there and how good music can be. As a songwriter and performer myself it’s a reminder of how hard you have to work and where the bar is. It keeps things fresh and exciting. Also, I love that the jazz show is on Radio 2. Often you capture an audience with really unusual and challenging music that aren’t necessarily seeking that experience like perhaps a 6 music listener would be. It’s a harder job, but I find it really rewarding. The traditional twentieth anniversary gift is china – a few plates, maybe a cup and saucer or two. Modernists apparently prefer platinum, which seems like a far more appropriate way to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Jamie Cullum’s Twentysomething, first released in October 2003 and now extended and re-released in double LP format. I am a largely self taught musician, but during COVID, I started studying music properly with a university professor and have been hugely inspired by that. Seeing how things I developed instinctively actually fit together is mind blowing. I’m inspired by going into things as deeply as possible – songs, books, great movies, lyrics, poetry, chord sequences, bebop solos – the deeper you go the more interesting things seems to get. On this release, Cullum performs original material as well as covers and standards. The lead single from the album was "All at Sea" and "These Are The Days/Frontin'" was the highest-charting single at number 12 on the UK Singles Chart. Jamie Cullum's album Momentum was released on 20 May 2013. In conjunction with the album, he performed six intimate gigs across Europe; the first was in London. [22]

Archived from the original on 12 December 2021 – via www.youtube.com. I definitely enjoy Jamie Cullum's "Twentysomething." Many people have blasted it for being too unoriginal, too boring, too "pop" sounding, etc., but the fact remains that this music is fun to listen to. I'd much rather listen to Mr. Cullum's music than Norah Jones or Diana Krall. Cullum runs through standards and originals as if both were his own. He takes songs by artists such as Radiohead and the legendary Jimi Hendrix and puts a spin on them that others wouldn't dare dream of doing. He takes a "no fear" approach to music. Perhaps that is why I enjoy this album so much. While other artists have become media darlings by pawning themselves to the public, Cullum seems to be content with doing his own thing. By being himself, he's captured the attention of millions. He's even played for the Queen.
