For those of you who are new to my MidNight Gems series. Welcome to this nightly trip on which we will uncover & recover some amazing songs & covers.
Last week was the last in a series of summer-inspired Latin grooves, but gotta stay eclectic so get ready for some old, some new, and some that will lick your inner ear!
I promised....
No more Latin, although there might be a Latin Lolita hiding somewhere...but you won't hear her...she is just having eargasms.
This song needed the 2024 Olympics to become the most searched song on Shazam...can you believe it I have been playing it for 15 years and so have London Grammar
JO PARIS 2024 - Le Magnifique Nightcall par PHOENIX, ANGÈLE et KAVINSKY au Stade de France
Kavinsky did not age a day it seems, but damn Papa got OLD, but the song it´s not roachie but certainly not stale.
Papa Roach & Carrie Underwood - Leave A Light On (Talk Away The Dark)
Talking about old guys making a comeback, Damn I used to be such a big fan of Kravitz and hearing this song I might be once again, oh my cookies this does not get old.
Lenny Kravitz - Paralyzed
Okay, stop!
Back to the NOW Gen.
Yes talking about you Ren, again!
This guy has got millions of views and puts himself out there being vulnerable as ...yes vulnerable as fuck!
Ren - heart-shaped box
And back to the old guys because it seems that one of my favorite bands has a new single and it´s back to the good old days, it sounds exactly like 15 years ago, and sometimes....that is a good thing!
The Killers - Bright Lights
Didn´t those Killer boys do something with Brightside, or am I mixing up things being blinded by Vright Lights? I am kinda sure they did but it sounded nothing like this,
LIL PEEP - THE BRIGHTSIDE
Fifteen years ago, when Chester was still here... love his legacy and especially this OMG eargasm, everything is perfect about Tommy and Skylar doing LP.
NUMB - Tommee Profitt x Skylar Grey
If you frequently read me you know "I love saying in the end" ..... Tommy likes it Too so it starts with... one more!
In The End (Epic Cinematic Cover) feat. Fleurie & Jung Youth - Tommee Profitt
We are at the end right?
This is song #9 right?
Because I want to go out with this bang!
They have more vids, so I probably am playing them over the next couple of weeks...because I love Epic Bombastic Orchestral Eargasms like this one!
The Rock Orchestra by Candlelight - Zombie

Riddle Me This
Guess What, my riddledid not get solved so here is a hint!
You find them all in the same place
What the fluff is Midnight Gems?
Somewhere lost in time, trying to escape out of the rabbit hole back into the rat race there is a vacuum..... that´s the place where midnight gems are found.
My Midnight Gems will try to uncover & recover those beautiful songs that nobody ever noticed or might have been forgotten.
Who the fluff am I?
Being a former DJ playing about everything and having an uncompleted study of radio journalism. I have been wanting to do this for years...Thought about it many nights and guess now it´s time to finally take it to the streets.
Hope you enjoyed this well-known wave of fantastic music and that you still feel like joining me on the next Midnight Gems Session coming soon.
