Our top ten tunes of the week – November 9
Here are the songs that have been buttering our bread over the past few days:
1. Kira Puru – Fly
Sit back and watch Fly, a steamy 90’s throwback affair captured in black and white and filmed inside a retired Boeing-747. Of the video, Puru says, “Fly is arguably the biggest and sexiest tune on the KP EP and though I don’t ever need encouragement, I felt this justified the type of flamboyant, high-key behaviour that is: throwing a big ol’ lit party on a Boeing 747.”
2. E^ST – Friends
E^ST says of the video, “It’s about having moments of connection in the most random places and times, and that no matter where you go there will be friends to be found.”
3. Alice in Chains – Never Fade
“The ‘Never Fade’ video is a continuation of ‘The One You Know,’” says vocalist/guitarist William DuVall. “The full story will gradually be revealed. For now, check out what we love to do best – play live and tell a story with our music.”
4. Totally Unicorn – Grub
Part Tim & Eric episode, part vaporwave odyssey, seemingly straight from a VHS tape – the clip is every bit as weird as you would expect.
5. Bodega – Name Escape
‘Name Escape’ is the third BBC Radio 6 Music playlisted single taken from their acclaimed debut album Endless Scroll.
6. Missy Higgins – All For Believing
Shot when Missy was just 15, this video captures the first recording of the song,

8. Huntly – Wiggle
