Day 13: a comfort song
Orchestrated Manoeuvres In The Dark - Messages
a song that always makes me feel warm inside, get up and shake my body, and sing my lungs out. no matter my mood, this is my comfort blanket. and my, those bass runs at the end…!

Day 12: a one word, four letter song
Propaganda - Duel
i remember this following Dr.Mabuse and being slightly disappointed by how conventional it sounded in comparison. but seriously - this is just a wonderful pop song. what’s not to love?

Day 10: with the word song in the title
Blur - Good Song
who would have guessed? Graham Coxon (temporarily) gone and the band record one of their greatest moments. the tragedy is, since he’s returned they’ve never played it live..

i found out that 54 years ago today both The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars AND the debut lp from Roxy Music were released. i repeat, on the same day. i know there are other instances, but i’m letting this one sink in for now
there are some people on BlueSky who i have never met, and sadly may never meet in person. but they simply exude compassion, warmth, generosity and all round decency. i’m not going embarrass people by naming names. some probably know who you are. some maybe surprised. but thank you, i love you all x
