I became a fan of Joshua Radin when one of his tracks was featured on a particularly emotional episode of Scrubs that a lot of fans really connect with…
More on that later.
Anyway, Joshua is back with a new single – “This One’s For”, an acoustic number, his vocals are gorgeous on this, he sings huskily and the lyrics are about those who are a little different, it’s like a love song to his group of friends and family those that he relates to.
I love the drums and percussion on this too, the kick is heavy but there is a percussion loop that goes through that I love… you could just imagine this going down a storm live.
The lyric that I connect with is:
“This is for the people who see the world a bit differently,
I always knew I was much more like you,
And there was something about you that was me.”
Love it.
Joshua Radin is a singer/songwriter that came to my attention through one of my favourite tv shows of all time, Scrubs. His song “Winter” was featured in a very emotionally charged episode and still resonates with fans today, I know this because of the fact that I’m part of a Facebook group dedicated to all things Scrubs and two of the main cast members podcast “Fake Doctors Real Friends”, it gets referenced a lot even after all these years. I have a lot of love for him, his songwriting just hits the spot.
