Rouge no Dengon – Yumi Matsutoya

I recently watched ‘Suzume‘, a beautiful animated film with a gut-wrenching backstory. And they played this song on the roadtrip part and I was instantly transported to my youth, to simpler days. Cos the first time I heard the song was in another legendary anime – ‘Kiki’s Delivery Service‘. It’s one of my favorite anime growing up and still is, and the song ‘Rouge no Dengon’ opened the film in such a memorable way. The song represented freedom, growing up, and maybe some growing pains too but nonetheless it’s about a journey worth taking, no matter the destination. I’ve been listening to the song a lot in the past few weeks. I’m sure the yearning for simpler time, the days of summer in the middle of winter, and back to the time when there’s no stress or grief of the adult age. But at the same time, the song reminds me that the journey forward, growing up, it’s worth taking. Hope you enjoy the song, and have a peaceful weekend!

i only smoke to feel bad – KiNG MALA

I’ve been writing the minimum amount to this blog in November and it’s intentional. I am preparing for December, I’m doing Blogmas this year! 😀 I want to start 2024 in the ‘right way’, and that includes me getting back in the writing groove. What better way to do that than semi-force myself to write daily. XD

Anyways. Came across this cute song this week on Youtube, thought that I should share. So hope you enjoy and have a great weekend!

Fears Become Wishes – Lily Kershaw

Recently watched ‘Sympathy for the Devil’, Nic Cage was surely having fun in it, the movie was okay but this song featured in the movie, it was banging. I’ve had a really tiring week at work but at least the limbo-ish state had resolved itself so my stress had lifted too. So it’s a happy tiredness. I’m definitely going to enjoy the weekend, hope you do too and have a great one!

I Wish I Knew the Man I Thought You Were – Cass McCombs & Karen Black

I started to watch the TV mini-series “The Fall of the House of Usher”. I do love me some Mike Flanagan’s signature tragic horror stuff, especially not in Spooktober. This song was playing on episode 3, I really like it. So I hope you enjoy it too, and have a great weekend!
