We asked the CJ crew for their picks of 2021. Here are the harmonious highlights

Issue 10

1. Let's stick around by Riton & Gucci Soundsystem (Ft. Jarvis Cocker)

Climate change is a red-hot issue in football (and, to be fair, everything else). So here’s this: “the world’s first sustainability banger” according to the Pulp frontman.

2. Haaland by Keeya Keys

A rapper from north London with a song name-checking a striker from Borussia Dortmund. That cracking 1988 Netherlands shirt also makes an appearance in the video.

3. Solar Power by Lorde

“Can I kick it? Yeah, I can.” The Kiwi singer hints at hitherto hidden round-ball talents in this sunny slice of pop delight. Jarvis will be a fan of the title.

4. In My Arms by Disclosure

A dance hit that was dropped by the electronic duo (who are brothers, no less) in August. If you manage to get to the end of this tune without waving your arms in the air at least once, fair play.

5. Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond

OK, so more of a 1969 smash than a 2021 hit. But it was the soundtrack to the summer for a lot of us and Scott insisted we put it in, so embrace it.
