The Eliminator 1000 – Great Songs to Listen To – Columbus & 89th (Sarah Jarosz) vs. Tonight Tonight Tonight (Genesis)

-

Next up in the Eliminator 1000 is the 2023 release Columbus & 89th by New York to Tennessee artist Sarah Jarosz. It’s opponent, the current #1000, is the 1986 pop classic Tonight Tonight Tonight by 80s pop band Genesis. Tonight Tonight Tonight has 51 more listens on the 1-5000 more listens scale of The Eliminator 1000!

Here are the two YouTubes:

The Elimination: Sarah Jarosz is very outstanding vocalist. And while this simple song doesn’t show it off much, you can hear it. I just am an absolute sucker for pretty vocals like this one. And I think this song is easily worth many listens! And I have honestly never heard such a pretty song about New York City! There isn’t much to say about it other than this is just a stand up song worth listening to!

Phil Collins and Genesis have just been getting hammered in this project. There are still about 4 more Phil Collins songs in The Eliminator 1000, which is a LOT, but more than half have now been eliminated. That’s because he’s the perfect 80s artist to eliminate, mostly. I doubt In The Air Tonight will ever leave the Eliminator 1000, but most of these other 80s hits will be leaving, sooner or later.

Columbus & 89th goes in at #832 (755 more listens). Tonight Tonight Tonight is Eliminated!

The Eliminator 1000 is a music refresh project, based on the idea that a really long playlist of truly outstanding songs can still be continually improved for the future listen.
