Love Faustus - brilliant play. simple scenario that explores the human condition and the Helen of Troy 9is this the face that launched a thousand ships) speech is brilliant.
Lots of Duke Special stuff out there to explore. His live shows are great. Eclectic Victoriana and a band of real musicians who play for the love of playing. I can absolutely recommend. He's a lovely bloke to boot

Ah - a bit of Brecht...
Theatre genius and Threepenny Opera is a classic. And of course with Nina's voice, it's hard not to love ANY song.
An aquaintance of mine - (not quite a friend but someone I've been lucky to know and spend time with) wrote the music for the National theatre version of Mother Courage a few years back. It was a brilliant production and his music is, as always, excellent.
The fantastic Duke Special...

TBH that wouldn’t normally be something I’d listen to but I do understand about singing with emotion. That’s why I hate such things as the X Factor where they are only looking for pitch perfect generic singers, it’s just well done Karaoke really.
My older sister had this one on her Dansette

It’s a relatively short song but even as a kid it was a 2 minute life lesson
I’m a fan of Jonathan Richman who’s not pitch perfect. Warning this one could spoil your morning

Joe Strummer sings with passion over perfection. Maybe one for later?
