Early in the morning, rising to the street
Light me up that cigarette and I'll strap shoes on my feet
Got to find the reason, reason things went wrong
Got to find the reason why my money's all gone
I got a dalmatian and I can still get high
I can play the guitar like a motherfucking riot
Love's what I got, don't start a riot
You'll feel it when the dance gets hot
Loving is what I got
And remember that
Loving is what I got…
“What I Got” – Sublime

Until the sun breaks through
I will light the dark for you
Let me unbreak your heart
Make you believe in love
And in a world so cruel
I will always shelter you
Let me unbreak your heart
Make you believe in love
Again
Again
Again again again
Again again
“Believe in Love” – ATB featuring Shaun Farrugia

聯黨結隊我哋成群
約喺呢庶捆一捆
萬大事有我哋撐
仲幫你啃
水滾茶靚
又夠鐘開檯食嘢
食到開心笑騎騎
有班街坊伙計死黨
繼續來落雨擔遮
有信心你就會贏
有心想就會事成
坐低一家大細
飲飽食醉
噉樣先最正

Tóg an teanga,
tóg an talamh.
Scrois an cultúr,
scrois na daoine.
Coilíneachas turns
all things to dust.
And those who oppose
are called sceimhlitheoirí.
A shlíomadóir,
tá sé Íorónta.
“Íorónta” – Chasing Abbey

And so I cry sometimes when I’m lying in bed,
just to get it all out what’s in my head,
and I’m feeling a little peculiar.
And so I wake up in the morning,
and I step outside,
and I take a deep breath and wonder why,
and I scream at the top of my lungs:
What's going on!?
“What’s Up?” – Dolly Parton ft. Linda Perry

Once we were years ahead,
but now those thoughts are dead.
Let me go.
All hopeless fantasies
are making fools of me.
Let me go.
I walk alone, and yet
never say goodbye.
Let me go.
Change of heart, change of mind,
and heaven fell that night.
Let me go.
“Let Me Go” – Heaven 17

A fun album from the late 90s/early 2000s, Loungeapalooza. Mostly turning existing 90s angsty songs into loung lizard styles. Here's one of my favorites, the one original song that sets you expectations for the rest of the album.
Sometimes you just need a confidence boost and a reminder to take things one day at a time. Sia’s Floating Through Space has been my morning pick-me-up for the last few days and I’m really appreciating it. #HooraySongOfTheDay
I’m so happy that there’s a brand new Bitter:Sweet album out today, their last release was around 2008 and I really loved them back in the day. I think theirs was the first concert @ibwatson and I ever attended together? Anyway, cheers to my #HooraySongOfTheDay
Night folks. I'm really trying to feel this right now. On repeat.

I don’t wanna be an old man anymore.
It’s been a year or two since I was out on the floor,
shakin’ booty, makin’ sweet love all the night.
It’s time I got back to the good life.
It’s time I got back. It’s time I got back.
And I don’t even know how I got off the track.
I wanna go back, yeah!
“The Good Life” – Weezer

Look darling, I suggest we hurry
the stars and all the gravy.
They’re burning out and
now they’re through.
That time we never wanted
is now put into practice.
Oh baby, I know…
Just let me be.
Look darling, I know that
you’re hanging around.
There’s confusion
and darkening clouds.
I was someone,
someone who would disagree.
Now I’m here to
ride this Lamborgini to you.
“Portrait of a Time” – Peter Cat Recording Co.

Oh we can zoom all the way to the moon
from this great wide wacky world.
Jump with me, grab coins with me, oh yeah!
It’s time to jump up in the air.
Jump up, don’t be scared.
Jump up and all your cares soar away.
You know that you’re my super star.
No one else can take me this far.
I’m flipping the Switch.
Get ready for this.
Oh, let’s do the Odyssey!

Seems like high time for a #HooraySongOfTheDay since I'm really feeling the line "I won't waste my love on a nation" today. One of my favorite songs: Weapon of Choice by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Will there be another race to
come along and take over for us?
Maybe Martians could do
better than we’ve done.
My friend says we’re like the dinosaurs
only we are doing ourselves in
much faster than they ever did.
We’ll make great pets.
We’ll make great pets.
We’ll make great pets.
We’ll make great pets.
We’ll make great pets.
We’ll make great pets.
We’ll make great pets.
“Pets” – Porno for Pyros

She’s got class and style
Street knowledge by the pound
Baby never act wild
very low key on the profile
Catchin’ feelings is a no
Let me tell you how it goes
Herb’s the word, spin’s the verb
Lovers it curves so freak, what you heard?
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up
Billie Jean is not my lover
She’s just a girl who thinks that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
“Billie Jean/No Diggity” – Everyday People

One of my favorite artists surprise released a new album today, nine years after his last, so I think it’s time to revive the #HooraySongOfTheDay hashtag!
It’s been a tough week for me, so this is exactly what I needed.
It was the third of September,
that day I’ll always remember,
yes I will.
Because that was the day
that my daddy died.
Never had a chance to see him, no.
Never heard nothing but bad things about him.
Mama, I’m depending on you to tell the truth.
My mama just hung her head and said:
“Papa was a rolling stone.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
And when he died,
all he left us was alone.”
“Killer/Papa Was a Rolling Stone” – George Michael

This live recording of Annie Lennox is from an American Idol fundraising episode, and it's stuck with me ever since. Beautiful.
Many Rivers to Cross - Annie Lennox
Yeah, you know how to beep beep like a sheep, I see.
But is that all you can do? (No no no no!)
Step 1: Throw your hands up
and point them to the sky.
Step 2: Drop to the floor
and move from side to side.
Step 3: Just bounce around,
c’mon I’ll show you how.
Step 4: Go crazy now
and meow meow like a cow.
Meow meow I’m a cow.
I said meow meow I’m a cow.
“Beep Beep I’m a Sheep” – LilDeuceDeuce ft. TomSka & BlackGryphOn

Strange the wind can
change so quickly
without a word of warning.
Rearrange our lives
until they’re torn in two.
Sweet, sweet burn of sun
and summer wind,
And you my friend,
my new fun thing,
my summer fling.
Laugh, oh how we would
laugh at anything!
And so pretend
of neverending
summer fling.
“Summer Fling” – k.d. Lang

Told me, it was over.
Told me, it was over.
This is what a sad song sounds like.
Say it like you love me, say it like you care.
I know that I’m f***ed up, I don’t even care.
When I close my eyes, I swear I can disappear.
It sounds like…
Ooh, it’s all in my head,
lightning and thundering.
Ooh, I’m not dead yet,
in case you were wondering.
“This is what a Sad Song Sounds Like” – Mike Posner, The Human Experience

I just heard this country cover of The Weeknd’s Blinding Lights by Tebey and now I’m wondering how many other pop songs are actually just country songs hiding in plain sight... 🤔 It’s so weird how well it adapts.
Like a stranger’s smile that lasts for a while,
for a moment you feel happy inside
in a world that keeps on changing too fast
when the future always has the last laugh.
Maybe we’ve made mistakes.
Maybe we’re not the only ones.
Maybe it’s not too late
to start over.
All the shapes and patterns you’ll see in your mind…
Somewhere in the world,
someone’s thinking of you.
“Somewhere in the World” – Swing Out Sister

I don’t think pop music gets any better than this. The euphoric driving drum track, the spot on lyrics, Darren’s casual falsetto.
Perfection
This song is going through my mind as I lay here sick and sleepy, but unable to sleep. Who even sings the Smallville theme song‽ I had a crush on the Green Arrow guy. (Unable to remember any names in my half awake, congested state) #HooraySongOfTheDay
This song has no business being so sexy. #hooraySongOfTheDay
#TIL about Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and I can't wait to hear more. Rock it!
