Books of the Year 2023

An exciting and heartening mix of memories, music, and inspiration from Wilco front man and&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author Jeff Tweedy, sharing fifty songs that changed his life, the real-life experiences behind each one, as well as what he's learned about how music and life intertwine and enhance&nbsp;each other.

What makes us fall in love with a song? What makes us want to write our own songs? Do songs help? Do songs help us live better lives? And do the lives we live help us write better songs?&nbsp;

After two&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestsellers that cemented and expanded his legacy as one of America’s best-loved performers and songwriters,&nbsp;Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back)&nbsp;and&nbsp;How To Write One Song, Jeff Tweedy is back with another disarming, beautiful, and inspirational book about why we listen to music, why we love songs, and how music can connect us to each other and to ourselves. Featuring fifty songs that have both changed Jeff's life and influenced his music—including songs by The Replacements, Mavis Staples, The Velvet Underground, Joni Mitchell, Otis Redding, Dolly Parton, and Billie Eilish—as well as Jeff’s “Rememories,” dream-like short pieces that relate key moments from Jeff’s life,&nbsp;this book is a mix of the musical, the emotional, and the inspirational in the best possible way.
