Evergreen
Evergreen music emerged in the mid-20th century, primarily shifting into the limelight thanks to crooners and classic love songs that have aged like a fine wine, rather than the odd pint of warm lager. Characterised by its timeless melodies and relatable lyrics, it sounds suspiciously like something your parents would play on repeat whilst slowly reminiscing about their youth, complete with the occasional sigh. It's the sort of genre that makes you wonder how it’s possible for a song to feel both nostalgic and suspiciously familiar, leaving listeners wondering if they've somehow time-travelled to an era of polka-dotted shirts and dance halls.
