44. OZODA - “Ko’k Jiguli” (24, Uzbekistan)

All hail the Tigress of the East! Will today’s pop girlies still be making songs that go this hard at age 50? I have my doubts!

For HMs I'm going to boost five things I like and hadn't heard before this, starting with 'Joy Rider' by Kim Richey

"Joy Rider" Kim Richey (2024) (USA) (12 pts)
NKC: ✅️ ISC: ❎️

Gets my max bonus on raw sentiment; I feel this cute piano pop vignette as a eulogy for my brother, evoking a carefree time in our childhood when he was a daredevil on a BMX

I should create a clout-proof burner even to make this comment, but: good list! Glad to see 'Green Mind' in there. Mine would include 'Little Fury Things', 'Water', and ofc 'Freak Scene', but I could listen to yours straight through no problem
