About this listen

In this episode of The Listening Lens, I dive into The Pogues’ 1988 classic If I Should Fall From Grace with God. It’s a record that feels part riot, part requiem! Where wild folk energy crashes into sharp punk spirit. From the holiday heartache of Fairytale of New York to the restless bite of the title track, I explore how this album balances chaos and beauty, and why it still matters today.
