Hiding in my Welsh lesson today, just in time for the start of Yacht Rock season:
Maen nhw’n hwylio heddiw.

Shaken from smoothness by the wake of Koko's death, Kenny Loggins entertains the temptation of non-Yacht-rock.
Is it Yatch Rock? Or Nyacht?
Yacht rock (originally known as the West Coast Sound or adult-oriented rock) is a broad music style and aesthetic identified with soft rock. It was one of the commercially successful genres of its era, existing between the late 1970s and early 1980s. Drawing on sources such as smooth soul, smooth jazz, R&B, funk, and disco, common stylistic traits include high-quality production, clean vocals, and a focus on light, catchy melodies. Its name, coined in the 2000s by the makers of the online video series Yacht Rock, was derived from its association with the popular Southern Californian leisure activity of sailing.
Hall and Oates go toe to toe with McDonald and Loggins in a back alley contest, with tragic results.
