#SongoftheDay How Deep Is Your Love? (Bee Gees)

By

I found a copy of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack in my partner's record collections, so I immediately played it. Touching vinyl really takes me back. It's something I haven't done since the 80s, possibly the 90s.  

I've probably told this story before, but I specifically remember being in Buffalo NY when record stores were shutting down and pawing through endless stacks of clearance albums with my father. 

Feels like forever ago.


If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and anecdotes, the easiest thing you can do is buy my books (most are for adults only!) or check them out from your local library. 

Supporting my AudioErotica endeavour on Patreon would also help me hugely.

I'm also an Amazon Influencer, so hopefully I can make a little pocket change when you buy stuff by clicking through my affiliate links.

I also recommend subscribing to my newsletter. I generally e-mail subscribers with a weekly update, and I would LOVE to have you on the list.

#SongoftheDay Can't Get You Out of My Head (Kylie Minogue)

By

Hello, my friends. This blog stopped rather abruptly, didn't it? I always thought I had signed off, but it turns out I didn't. I just left you hanging. For two years. That's shameful. But my partner moved, and that move was... big. He returned to his hometown, and he has regretted it ever since. I sort of like it. I sort of hate it, too, but that's pretty much life: I sort of like it and I sort of hate it. I'm still sick, but now I'm sick in new and exciting ways in addition to the old and exciting ways. Wait, did I say exciting? I meant excruciating. I'm in pain pretty much every day. At last count, I had 9 chronic illnesses. That's ridiculous. I'm willing to share, if anybody wants to take a few off my hands. Last month I had to shut down my Patreon because I'm just not capable of recording audio anymore. I enjoyed it. I'm sorry to have to give it up. But here we are. All this time that the blog's been on hiatus, I've thought about ...

#SongoftheDay I Can't Stand The Rain (Eruption ft. Precious Wilson)

By

I'm back in disco mode these days. That tends to happen when I'm well enough to exercise, because I exercise by doing disco dancing workouts. After being so sick to my stomach that I spent nearly a week in bed, I am ready to move my body, baby! And I move my body to disco music.

#SongoftheDay Go Your Own Way (Fleetwood Mac)

By
Image
One big lesson I learned from all these Dutch decluttering videos I've been watching on YouTube is not to keep stuff that makes me feel bad. That's why I've been getting rid of all (most) of my books from university. They were super-expensive and I didn't always manage to do all my readings because I was simultaneously working full-time to put myself through school. So every time I looked at all these books on my bookshelf, I felt guilty for spending so much money on books I never read, guilty for not getting all my readings done, irritated that I had to put myself through school in the first place, and ashamed for having been such a lousy student. Every time I looked at my bookshelf, that same wash of emotions came over me.  Who would choose to live that way? Well, I did for more than twenty years. But not no more! Once I recognized that those books were making me feel that way, and that--realistically--I was never going to read decades-old textbooks, I felt free to ge...

#SongoftheDay The Shape of Water (Alexandre Desplat)

By
Image
My partner brought The Shape of Water home from the library the other day. Neither of us had seen it. He'd never even heard of it. I said, "Isn't that the movie about a woman having sex with some kind of sea creature?" His eyes sort of widened, like he didn't realize what he'd gotten us into. Anyway, we watched it and it was surprisingly lovely. All I'd heard about it was the sex with a sea creature bit, but gosh it had a lot (more) going for it. I never would have picked up that DVD, but I'm glad my partner did. The film really surprised me. It's dreamy and fairy-tale-ish but also suspenseful and gruesome (I had to close my eyes a lot toward the end). If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and anecdotes, the easiest thing you can do is buy my books (most are for adults only!) or check them out from your local library.  See you soon!

#SongoftheDay Moments to Remember (The Four Lads)

By
Image
The other evening, I was folding clothes on my partner's bed. He walked into the bedroom with his arms full of laundry and playfully asked, "What are YOUR clothes doing on MY side of the bed?" We proceeded to fold laundry together. I watched him go at it and said, "Wow, you could work at The Gap!" He agreed. He is an excellent folder. I couldn't stop smiling. That's when this song popped into my head. I'm not fancy. I don't need expensive dinners and vacations. I don't even want that. I'm the type that goes for quiet nights at home. I like domesticity and togetherness. That's the kind of stuff I remember. If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and visits every day, the easiest thing you can do is tell your friends about the site. Tell anyone you know--particularly people who are isolated and enjoy music. Readers of adult fiction can also buy my books or check them out from your local libra...

#SongoftheDay Really Wanna Let You Down (Monowhales)

By
Image
This song has been on the radio a lot lately, and every time I hear it, the same scene replays in my head: I'm at my partner's place and he's just come home from the library.  He takes off his coat and hat and gloves and boots and sits in a chair and puts his feet up.  I've been sitting on the floor, because it's warmest near the fireplace, but as soon as I see his feet, I need to touch them. So I do. I get close and I massage his feet--something I don't think I've ever done. He says, "I've always wanted a foot massage--a professional one, I mean, though the amateur version is very good." The book Memoirs of a Geisha pops into my head, and I tell him so. He says, "Talk about cultural appropriation!" So we do. This song is playing on the radio. I've heard it before, but I hear it differently when I notice my partner glancing at the radio, like he'll be able to see the song more clearly. I feel slightly anxious. I...

It's time for a fun song--a funk song. I've never actually seen this movie. I've never even been to a car wash.

#SongoftheDay Are You Serious (Andrew Bird)

By

This song had me from the start. I first heard it on Laurie Brown's CBC Radio 2 program The Signal. There are so many lines in here that got me: "Always was the one you thought would never marry" in particular. It's become a bit of a theme song ever since things with my partner have started getting... well... serious. Yes, Virginia, there is a vinyl album! If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and visits every day, the easiest thing you can do is tell your friends about the site.

#SongoftheDay Maybe Tomorrow (Stereophonics)

By
Image
You think we're listening to Stereophonics because the word came up in a song the other day, but no! We're listening to them because they are Welsh. And I'm going to admit something shameful: even though one of my grandmothers was from Wales, I still can never tell whether a character on a TV show is played by a Welsh actor who has an actual Welsh accent, or whether it's an actor doing a bad Welsh accent. Isn't that awful? I should be able to tell, considering my partial Welshness.  And I spent a lot of time with that grandmother, as a kid. She used to babysit me and my cousin while our parents were at work. My earliest memories are of watching I Dream of Jeannie with my Welsh grandmother. Mind you, by the time I was born my grandmother did have a type of facial paralysis that affected her speech, so I'm not sure what her accent sounded like before then. Anyway, that's my shameful announcement for today: I can't tell a real Welsh accent from a fake one...
