Song Exploder gets musicians to break down how the creates one of their iconic songs. It's on Netflix now so YouTube content is scarce, but theirs an audio podcast that's free.
I really enjoy that one. One of my favourite episodes was the Crowded House one for “Don’t Dream It’s Over”. So good.

One hit wonder in the USA maybe. Big in Europe. The Crossing and Wonderland EP are all killer, no filler.

These things are weird. I used to watch these two black dudes who would listen to white type stuff. They'd listen to Pink Floyd or Radiohead who is my white guy fave and they would rave about Paranoid Android. Then I realized they were just playing lip service to whities for follows and likes. It felt very disingenuous after a while, like a marriage.
It's the rarest thing to recommend a listen to someone and they actually, listen and actually like. It reinforces that you, yourself are awesome.

I think I get those guys in my recommendations. They don't add anything constructive so I don't bother watching. The YouTubers in this thread are more knowledgable.
