#Tuesdaytunes @TieDyeDude
I'm not sure if I'm alone here, but I enjoy a disturbing number of the songs listed today. Not the creepy ones, but still...🤯😂
My vote is for Believer by Imagine Dragons.
But speaking of the creepy theme - my fiancee and I were listening to an ok cover of that Marcy Playground song 'Sex and Candy' and then we wondered who else may have covered it...

Billypar ... and that's how we found this testosterone-soaked version from a band I never heard of that has a very fitting name. I'm going to put it under the Spoiler tag because I do NOT recommend listening to it (trust me, it's not something you want in your brain - particularly the chorus 🤢). 2w

TieDyeDude Ha, I can't listen to that Imagine Dragons song because I always hear “Belieber,“ slang for fans of Justin Bieber. 🤣
I'll take your suggestion and just assume the worst with the other!

“Thanks“ for playing 😉

Ruthiella You are not alone! I like quite a few of the “worst” songs. 😂 2w
BarbaraBB I agree on all Imagine Dragons. Their music is so bombastic, I can‘t stand the drama. For that reason I‘m not a Coldplay fan either. 2w
RamsFan1963 @Billypar I liked their version of Happy Together 2w
Billypar @TieDyeDude I'm not a Bieber fan either, so that does sound like a bad combo to me. As for the second song - there's actually a twist - see my (soon to be posted) comment below. 2w
Billypar @Ruthiella Oh good - that's a relief! Lol. 2w
Billypar @BarbaraBB Agreed, I don't like Coldplay either. The sound for both seems sterile and bland to me, like they wrung out all the good stuff from rock. 2w
Billypar @RamsFan1963 So, I listened to Happy Together, and I agree - not bad! Then I went back and listened to Sex and Candy, and I still didn't like it, but it was nowhere near what I remembered. The song in my head sounded like Limp Bizkit covering the song, but this sounded more like Jefferson Airplane maybe? I checked a few other covers to see if I had the wrong song, but I don't think so. Memory is very strange! 🤔 2w
BarbaraBB Exactly! 2w

🌸Spring Vibe: No Barfing on the Flowers!*🌸

How do I love spring? Let me count the ways…

Bunnies, blooms, poetry, & the very first dip of my bare toes in the Atlantic since the previous year. Never mind reading peacefully while the rain patters on the windows and the rooftop. Or riding my bike while the wind whips through my hair & the sun warms my skin. I could weep. 🥹

Happy #SpringEquinox!

*Real photo I snapped while camping one year. 😆

monalyisha @vivastory! Heck yes! I was a fan before meeting my husband but they‘re his favorite band (and he‘s a musician so he‘s always listening to, playing, and seeing music), so now they‘re a constant presence in my life! 2mo

Finally got down to read this classic. I don't remember having it as a child, but since my reread of The Starless Sea it kept spinning around in my head. Since I don't have kids, I can't really say how it depicts a child's tantrum, but when I think back to the ones I had as a child, it's a lovingly told story about how it feels to be in rage and calming down again.

One Boy Watching | Grant Snider

I drove a school bus for 10 years! I can't believe Grant Snider didn't. Maybe he did. This book is an accurate account of a bus route. The illustrations took me back to my driving days.

This is a really cute book about transitioning from training wheels to a big bike. I loved the illustrations and red cowgirl boots.
