#SongoftheDay Baby Elephant Walk Remix (Henry Mancini)

By

When my partner and I were changing the sheets last Sunday, this song popped into my brain. I asked him if he knew it. He didn't. So I started singing it at him--really high-pitched and annoying. I will never forget the look on his face. It said: why are you doing this to me?

Sometimes I feel like the Bucket woman. "She'll sing at me!"

I like this remix.

#SongoftheDay Tell Me Something Good (Rufus & Chaka Khan)

By

It's easy to get addicted to the news, these days. The world is a 24/7 train wreck. How can we look away? My mother's basically been self-isolating since January. Well, not really, but she had her surgery, she was in hospital for weeks, then when she got out she couldn't leave the house, and by the time she'd recovered enough to be out and about, she wasn't allowed to.  Her immune system is severely compromised. She is very much at risk. Thank goodness my brother lives with her.  She also has lots of friends and sisters who are more than willing to drop groceries at her door. I didn't mean to write so much about my mom.  I only mentioned her to say that she tells me she often turns on the news first thing in the morning, and suddenly it's afternoon.  All she's done in that time is watch the news. There's not much good in those reports. I don't know if there should be. I don't know if goodness seems trite, when so many people are dying. ...

#SongoftheDay Rimsky-Korsakov's Sheherazade (Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, Elim Chan)

By
Image
This weekend, I took a much-needed day off from hospital duty to go to the symphony. I've never seen the place so packed, but it was no surprise, with a double-bill like Rachmaninoff's 2nd piano concerto and Scheherazade. Elim Chan did a powerhouse job. I couldn't believe my luck when I found this video of her conducting Scheherazade on YouTube. Witness the journey! This concert was an experience, I tell you. The tickets were my belated Christmas gift to my parter (and also his Valentine's Day gift, because I haven't been terribly organized lately...) and he went on and on about how much he enjoyed the performance. It feels good to give a gift the other person genuinely loves. Even better when I get to share in it!

#SongoftheDay Orinoco Flow (Enya)

I mentioned yesterday that I'm grieving the loss of an Irish friend, so we're listening to more Irish music today. I always liked this song, and it strikes me as a good one for mourning.

#SongoftheDay Born to be Cheap (Divine)

By
Image
I needed new pyjamas, so, naturally, I went to the supermarket. They sell clothes for cheap. I am nothing if not cheap. Whenever people buy me pyjamas (and by "people" I mean my mother, because she is the only person who buys me pyjamas), they buy me flannel pyjamas. As a permimenopausal person, let me tell you, flannel does not work. Even when I sleep naked, I wake up drenched in sweat. So I needed to find something I could sleep in that wasn't hot, and what I found (at the supermarket) were these adorable soft fluttery little shorts. And they were made of a printed fabric. And that print was of sea flora, tridents, and purple Ursula heads.  Ursula, from The Little Mermaid. Since I loved Disney villains as a kid AND they were on the clearance rack, I bought them and paired them with a tank top I got for $3. The reason we're listening to Divine is that, in case you weren't aware, the character of Ursula in The Little Mermaid was modelled on Divine. Now I...

#SongoftheDay Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In (The 5th Dimension)

By
Image
This song reminds me of high school, though I'm not sure why. Possibly because I was big into New Age stuff back then. I've mentioned before that I had a palmistry poster hanging on my bedroom wall. Just yesterday I was cleaning out my closet and I found the journal where I wrote down all my tarot readings, as a teen. Many of the questions were like "How am I going to do on my math test?" Was I a nerd or what? Everything New Age appealed to me back then, and this song appealed to me as well. The funny thing about middle age, or midlife crisis, or whatever phase of existence I find myself in, is that the things that spoke to me as a teen have come back to the fore. I've started doing tarot readings again. I listen to astrological forecasts more often than weather forecasts. And I do quite like this song.

#SongoftheDay Pepto Bismol Commercial Remix (Chosakken)

By

My partner has a love-hate relationship with this song. Every time the commercial comes on, he notes that it's remarkably well-done, but since when do people grab their butts and sing about diarrhea onscreen? 1989, I guess? That's when the movie Parenthood came out.  I am delighted that there's a remix so that I can share this tune with you AND take up more than 16 seconds of your time. This remix is my everything.

#SongoftheDay Back To Life (Soul II Soul)

By
Image
A grocery flyer came through my mail slot today. Across the top, it said: BACK TO ROUTINE. As soon as I read that, this song jumped into my head. I've been listening to it ever since. Over the holidays, visitors to this site dropped drastically. It worried me, I must admit. But the moment this BACK TO ROUTINE grocery flyer entered my apartment, visitors magically returned to the blog. What a relief. I guess we're all settling back into our usual routines--whether that means buying bananas or paying daily visits to a certain music blog. If you've been away, I'm pleased to welcome you back.  Thanks for coming. I genuinely enjoy producing these little posts for you each and every day.  I hope you'll continue to return all year long.

#SongoftheDay Does Your Chewing Gum Lose its Flavour On the Bedpost Overnight? (Lonnie Donegan)

By
Image
We've been listening to some pretty heavy songs the past few days. We need a break. This is a song my father used to sing to me, as a child. Inspired by it, I stuck a piece of bright blue bubble gum to my bedpost (I wanted to find out for myself the answer to the question this song poses), but I got in trouble when my mother, who apparently was not familiar with the song, spotted my bedpost gum. So I still don't know the answer. A question for the ages...

#SongoftheDay Asshole (Denis Leary)

By

After days of not being able to leave the house due to migraines AND salmonella poisoning (what a combination...) I finally went out to buy a few groceries. I often use a walker to get around, and that was the case today.  On my way home, there was a snooty rich lady standing in the sidewalk so that I couldn't get by. I asked her if she could move and she didn't even look at me, just took the slightest half-step forward so she was still blocking my path. There was no way I could get by her with my walker. She also had a dog. Her dog was completely blocking my path. I asked her if she could move her dog and she didn't even acknowledge my existence. She did not move her dog.  It's always bothered me, being treated this way--being treated like I'm so inconsequential that I'm not even worth acknowledging--but I think it bothers me in a much deeper way when I'm using a mobility aid. Because I feel like... you've got no excuse, world. You look at me and you kn...

#SongoftheDay Le Freak (CHIC)

 I'm having a really challenging day, dealing with the massive weight of depression, wanting to cry constantly, trying to get my writing done but feeling like work is just pointless. It was important, to me, to be here for you, though.  We're listening to disco because I like it and it has the potential to cheer me up. It hasn't cheered me up yet, but maybe if I listen to enough of it my mental health will get back on track.
