The Bridge

 















NYT Podcast Still Processing "Now That's What I Call a Bridge":

"Wesley has made his pick for song of the year: “Drivers License” by Olivia Rodrigo. This record-breaking track makes him nostalgic for his favorite part of a song — the bridge. 


Bridges used to be a core feature of popular music, but they’ve become an endangered species, right next to the sitcom laugh track.
