Train Tracks of 2024
For twenty-four years the music of Train has comforted, encouraged, and cheered me. Although most of the members have changed the music has never failed to resonate, always touching and influencing my inner monologue to bring back my inner song.

A Bittersweet Symphony. Top Story - December 2024.
Counting down from December (right now, as at the time of writing) to the beginning of 2024. The beginning of the year that is about to end (2024) is way different and significant than the ending. This may be true to form for some people, where the next holiday season leaves off from the last one somehow. In other words, you are revisiting any unfinished business from the previous holiday season in the current one, whatever shape or form that comes across for yourself.

The Darkest Playlist
[I apologize ahead of time for commercial ads present in the links] It comes to no surprise that my Spotify Wrapped for 2024 contains many songs from my “Let’s Get Scared, Barb” playlist. To me, Halloween is a year-round treat like pumpkin spice lattes or hot apple cider. I have dozens of playlists, each with its own goal: workout, chill, Christmas, Latin, yard work, hurricane season – you name it, I most likely have a playlist for it. One of my playlists is entitled “YOU DISRESPECTED ME?” and meant to be played after a frustrating day of substituting a class of impudent students. Every few months or so, I revisit my playlists, add or subtract from, or rearrange the songs depending on my mood at the time. If not, I tend to memorize the order and expect the same songs. The songs in my Halloween playlist, otherwise known as spooky $hit, show up across different playlists as well. 2024 was another year in darkness, sparked by occurrences of grief in the past decade, and because of that, I prefer to write about death, terror, ghosts, ghouls, or witches. This fear of the unknown is a common theme in my writing.

They Got The Blues
Introduction I was listening to an album on the roots of Jimi Hendrix and the first song on was "Killing Floor" by Howlin' Wolf. Then I thought that Blues singers often had such excellent alternate names. Mckinley Morganfield became Muddy Waters although is real name was something special too.

12 Months Of Washington. Runner-Up in The Soundtrack of Your Year Challenge.
At the end of 2023 I made one promise to myself. That promise was to explore often and as much as humanly possible. It was purely immersing myself into the nature and beauty of Washington state.

Musical Songs, Musical Dances
I’m back! (Too soon? Not soon enough?) I had a bit of an inspiration while working on a different playlist article and thought, “hey, that’s a bit more fun.” I thought, why not focus on a particular genre? Specifically, I thought, why not try musicals?

Twelve Months Of Song
Introduction I am always listening to music while I work, and lots of songs stick with me, and often they pertain to certain months of the year, so I thought I would share one song for each month of the year, which either names the month or a special day within that month.
