A few years ago I was walking through Golden Gate Park and was thinking again about this voice, this specific particular way someone once said “eleven!?”
Months later I wanted some background noise, I movie id seen a bunch in my teens maybe a little nostalgia sound. Put on Almost Famous and there it is. That “eleven!?” That for some reason stuck in my head so many years but I couldn’t recall it.
It happened again now, with Mice Parade - Waterslide. I had the twinkling piano and odd time guitar and energetic drums somewhere in the back of my brain, mushed but recognizable you know? And went to listen to some Do Make Say Think and what is recommended next?
Waterslide.
Anyway, made me happy.

🔎be it a different song reminding you of its melody, something someone says reminding u of its lyrics, or out of the blue being all "wait what was that song i used to love?", the moment of finally recalling the song is an orgasm in miniature. & the longer it takes u to find, the more painful the search feels, but the sweeter the discovery is! i was trying to think of an example just now and again couldn't remember the name of the band that i was searching for for 3 whole months this past year. but now after looking for 20 minutes i'm listening to Breast Stroke by Flaming Tunes and its so much sweeter than it would have been otherwise :)

I wrote this little essay about songs that are meaningful and not so meaningful to me and curious to see if you have a song/record/artist that if pivotal for you?? One that connects to a defining moment/or character development arc? 🤓

🎹sometimes u go through something and then all of a sudden you relate to a song you didn't before or didn't as much as you do now. bonus points for when it's one of your favorite songs like i knew those addicting melodies and vocals were always hiding something meaningful with an air of serendipity to it ✨

😃Being comfortable is nice when it’s a reward but as a state of being it’s boring and makes you boring and a boring life is a waste of whatever this is supposed to be. Go be uncomfortable (me talking to me)

🍷1. Don’t go to sleep until at least an hour after you stopped drinking
2. Chug like a litre of water with liquid IV
3. Pee like twice before you pass out
4. Wake up kinda early and chug a liquid IV water again
5. Eat a sausage egg and cheese sandwich (replace where dietary restrictions apply)
6. Take a cozy nap for an hour before noon

🎥A wordless semi-doc about the evolution of the world through the lens of industrial “progress” scored brilliantly to Phillip Glass being as glass-ian as possible. So. Good.
