The world-famous Christmas carol – amidst concrete, metal, and destroyed equipment. Deeply moving. The Ukrainian choir sang "Shchedryk" in the engine room of the DTEK power plant, destroyed by Russian attacks. It's enough to bring tears to your eyes.

@Dnewkidd1 @EverySongIveEve Perhaps "In These Shoes?" by "Kirsty MacColl?

@EverySongIveEve This has happened to me. Heard a song by a woman singing a jazzy song about shoes. Can't remember enough of the lyrics to search for it.

About thirty years ago I heard a song on the radio that I’ve been searching for ever since. What I think I remember about it is the lyric: “do you have a receipt / that’s not my department.” Any and all suggestions welcome.

As the church bell sounded the last deep toll of the eleven, the wet, mizzling rain suddenly stopped and in the silence, a blackbird began to sing in the apple orchard by the memorial. Standing in his old great coat, still flecked with mud, the Doctor remembered another little blackbird calling in a wood where bodies lay. These were songs of God, he thought, longing for a cigarette, of a God who fell in strips of light in cottage parlours when the telegrams were read in trembling hands, in the piping larks who rose above the shelling, of the sudden singing of the Welshmen along the trench, rich and dark and as holy as Christmas night.

Let’s do an experiment… Reply your bookish answers… Who knows, this might be a message specially for you. ✨

@itsme_urstruly Never any repercussions (arrests, court cases) after shootouts or property damage after car chases.

What’s something that happens often in movies that is 100% unrealistic?

@JodyDenberg Love you Jody ❤️

What's a piece of music that moves you deeply every time you hear it?

Meliorism: the quiet yet unwavering belief that the world, despite its flaws & struggles, can be made better through human effort, kindness & wisdom . I hold to this hope, this belief.
