Day 7! Meet Introducing Sparks 🏄‍♂️ 😴 #Sparkstember #Sparkstember2025

How long have we been in business again? #Sparkstember

Day 6 of Sparkstember! I love the song Tearing The Place Apart; a beautiful arrangement and gorgeously descriptive lyrics. I also love the contrast between how delicate the song is and the messy imagery of someone absolutely destroying their home! @sparksofficial.bsky.social #sparkstember2025

#Sparkstember2025 day 6
Song of the day: Gone With The Wind

I love the frantic energy of this album and the ridiculously inappropriate-sounding lyrics.

It was also the first Sparks record I saw in the wild, so I bought it despite not having a record player.

Day 6! Meet Big Beat 💪 ⚓ #Sparkstember #Sparkstember2025

Day 4! Meet Propaganda 🚤 🤧 #Sparkstember #Sparkstember2025

Pastel drawing of a sunrise. Text reads: Tomorrow you'll be home.

#Sparkstember2025 day 5
Song of the day: How are you getting home?

This song just makes me smile every time. The whole album is just perfect. The lyrics are witty and wry, and the melodies are catchy.

#Sparkstember2025 day 3
Song of the day: Here in Heaven

Not my favourite song of the album because I find it impossible to choose one. They are all wonderful. Honorary mention for Barbecutie.

#Sparkstember2025 day 4
Song of the day: Bon Voyage

I am staring at the tracklist trying to come up with my top 3 favourite songs. Again I fail. How can I choose between At Home At Work At Play and Don't Leave Me Alone With Her. Which do I like more? Achoo, or Reinforcements, or Bon Voyage?

Day 3! Meet Kimono My House 👘 🔫 #Sparkstember2025 #Sparkstember

IT’S SPARKSTEMBER! I won’t be able to post every day but I’ll make some collages here and there over the month. Starting with day 3 to celebrate Kimono My House and Equator; Russell’s outfit is from a live performance of the song from the Big Beat era. #sparkstember @sparksofficial.bsky.social
