We're coming to the end of another month, so it's time for me to come out and announce my "Song of the Month" for June: Stuck in My Head by Arcade Fire. It's the final track on their newly released album Pink Elephant. When I first listened to Pink Elephant, I was full of excited anticipation for some for great Arcade Fire music...only to be greatly disappointed as track after track seemed weak and lame. And then it came down to the very end, and wouldn't you know it, they came through with a big winner. Singer/songwriter Win Butler gives a passionate performance with cutting lyrics and a robust, fast pace reminding me of the group's much earlier track Rebellion (Lies). There are no other songs for June that, to me, come anywhere close to Stuck in My Head. It's also, in my estimation, the "Song of 2025" so far. Give it a listen and tell me what you think...
