Lindsay Zoladz, a pop music critic for The Times, expresses how Neko Case's new memoir, "The Harder I Fight the More I Love You," has deepened her admiration for Case's music. The memoir provided clarity on Case's life events during the creation of her albums, prompting Zoladz to revisit her favorite tracks and compile a playlist that showcases Case's unique songwriting. This reflection highlights the personal connection between music and autobiographical storytelling.
Getting a slightly more linear sense of certain things that were going on in her life at the time that she wrote some of her greatest albums really gave me a new sense of clarity into her experience, Zoladz said.
But she says that Case's new memoir, The Harder I Fight the More I Love You, made her appreciate Case's music anew.
It also led Zoladz to re-listen to some of her favorite tracks.
That inspired this playlist, which she says is an introduction to Case's distinct songwriting.
