Fight The Power - Public Enemy

 

[SalaciousMonkey22]

This band name ain’t as clever as they thought it was but the music’s good

I found some things
And I’m gonna change them.

Tears for fears: Everybody wants to rule the world

 

[UnquietDreams]

"Do you realize
That you have the most beautiful face?
Do you realize
We're floating in space?
Do you realize
That happiness makes you cry?
Do you realize
That everyone you know someday will someday die?

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round"

I will bear the existential burdens, all of them, even today, because of the people I love.

Day 5: A song for a stressful day

This one is more appropriate for today, imo.

Found my phone’s app suggestions interesting, and reminded me of this:

Day 5: A song for a high stress day (do you go calm, or dance it out?)

The Magick - Witchz
Lately I've found that blasting music in my car and feeling the thump of bass in my chest is the most calming. I like the deeper, grungy side of this type of music (I don't even know the name of the genre) although I wish the lyrics weren't so dark.

Take Care - Yo La Tengo

 

[Wonderer67]

If anyone’s feeling down today, a good dose of the aggrolites can get ya goin!

After a completely drunken nite in Philly maybe around 2014 ish, seeing the aggs and talking all kinds of shit, we got this pic after the show. Jesse looked at my wife and said “someone grew up…”

Then he looked at me, and finished the sentence. “…and someone didn’t.”

Great guys. Hung around while I went back to my truck, and got a bunch of records and a sharpie. Signed a boatload of my 45s and albums.

Verum - Speak

“Mom why are you crying?
Mom are you okay?
I know the world you gave me
Is scary but just maybe
We'll find another way”

Day 5: A song for a stressful day

I obviously have some catching up to do here, but when I'm feeling at the bottom of the hill, or stressed, to any of those things, I fall back on old favorites. And really, it's this whole record that helps me calm down, and breathe, and appreciate that things can in fact be better. I like to believe Kurt would have helped make the world better as he aged.

 

[LustfulIntentions2]

Trying to break out of my malaise with a few goofy tracks, I guess. I've always liked these guys, and this is catchy, but the video is comically bad in it's animation style.

"I Got a Name," Jim Croce

The heart of resistance to evil is knowing who you are. They, and there is always a "they," will try to take that from you, but if you hold it, you win. You have a name, and you matter -- don't let anyone take that away.

Like the fool I am and I'll always be
I've got a dream
I've got a dream
They can change their minds but they can't change me
I've got a dream
I've got a dream

Seeing as we are allowed to post more than one song today, I thought I would share this.
Hope this helps..

From A Distance -Bette Midler

I lost my virginity to a guy who played the didgeridoo

I was tired when I read this, so I forgot to ask.

Please tell my you didn't miss the chance to look into his eyes and say "didgeriedoo-me."

Because that opportunity comes around way less than once in a lifetime.
