Month: August 2024

“Hiding in your hoodie, pulling on its strings, haven’t took it off since you told me everything, God, I wish that you didn’t, had to take a knife and open up the cut, silver in the light, watch it tear me up, I’ll bleed out any minute, I could look the other way again, ’cause I learned from the best how to play pretend”

If there’s one band outside of Angie McMahon that you take from this project, it should be The Beaches. They are my absolute favorite find from last year.

Just four girls from Toronto who straight rock. What more do you need?

Be good, do good.

Jose possesses some of the most beautiful guitar skills I’ve ever heard and pairs them with a fantastically recognizable voice.

Hoping to test negative tomorrow and end this COVID fiasco. Better now than school, I guess?

Only a couple of Monday’s left before it’s time to go back. I better make ’em memorable.

What are you gonna make memorable today?

Be good, do good.

Changing gears yet again!

This song is a confidence builder. Ego is generally a bad thing I think, but “fake it til you make it” has certainly helped me in the past when needing to manufacture some confidence. I think sometimes we need songs like this to remind us we’re bad-asses. Hot shit. We got this far.

Keep going.

Like T.I. says, G.O.G.E.T.I.T

Be good, do good.

Short little ditty here that gives me some feelings of nostalgia and the silly and crazy things we got up to back in the days.

I think it’s important to keep those memories close, because in a lot of ways they might be the key to remembering what makes us tick as we get older and more distracted by the things life puts on our shoulders.

Connecting back to that younger you can sometimes make us remember what makes us truly happy. Not a bad thing to tap into, IMO. Be your authentic self and happiness appears.

Be good, do good.

Slowing things down quite a bit after that Jimmy song. We heard MARO back on #60 can you see me? Absolutely gorgeous voice.

I love the image that this song puts in our heads. Floating above the city with someone close to you. Far away from the noise, distractions, drama.

Sometimes we need that escape huh? What’s that look like for you? I’m thinking of making myself a super cozy reading nook somewhere in the house. A cozy little cave I can retreat to with a hot tea and book for when things get to be a little too much.

Do you have an escape?

Be good, do good.

Back to our regularly scheduled programming! COVID is not fun. Glad to be feeling closer to normal, I assure you.

This is a Jimmy song that I really don’t remember listening to much at all back when Chase This Light dropped. So last year upon some re-listening, it really stood out this time around.

If you ever get a chance to see them live, DO IT! I think I’ve seen them live maybe…8 times? Incredible every time out.

Just like you. 😀

Be good, do good.

Little under the weather tonight so just a short one today. Enjoy!

Be good, do good.
