here they are:
"Caesar Rock" by Paul McCartney: In spite of this song's somewhat trippy sound, it is not a "Magical Mystery Tour" or "Sgt. Pepper" outtake. "Caesar Rock" is Macca's own! The reverberation of the background instruments, the crispness of the acoustic guitars, the "Revolver"-esque in-and-out vibes of the accompanying electric guitars, and Sir Paul's commanding vocals make this song one worth the listen to. I can't help but wonder if the title of this song is a play on words. Paul sounds like he's saying, "She's a rock", during the chorus, even though it's actually, "Caesar rock". There has long been a rumor among the Beatles fandom that fellow Beatle John Lennon used the phrase "Norwegian wood" to sound like "knowing she would", so ya never know!
"Guiding Light" by Mumford and Sons: Mumford and Sons' last album received mixed reviews, largely because they were going for more of a "rock" sound than their previous albums. The single-only song, "There Will Be Time", marked a return to the Mumfords' acoustic roots, and could be said to be a forerunner to their latest song, "Guiding Light", which also focuses on their initial folk-rock sound. The trademark M & S banjo might not be present, but the earnestness and the softness that people associate the band with are both here on "Guiding Light". Unlike their 2015 song, "Believe, "Guiding Light" has received largely positive feedback on YouTube so far. Welcome back, boys! We missed ya!
