Music where the lyrics mention the genre it's in is as much an advertisement as "don't forget to like, subscribe, and ding that bell."

William Orbit productions never sounded cutting-edge, but they were routinely greater than the sum of their parts. I've often taken inspiration from that and described myself as following after him for that reason.

Minnie Riperton's "I'm a Woman" came out the year after Chaka Khan's "I'm Every Woman."
Which means Minnie Riperton was declaring herself a very small part of Chaka Khan.

Steve Winwood's "Higher Love" has inane lyrics - the kind I'd assume were written by a junior high kid who thinks they're deep and no one gets them.
And yet I've never seen it in a list of bad lyrics. That's especially surprising for it being a #1 hit.
I guess I have a new soapbox now!

@gabyduboisjoli.bsky.social You might want to look at my just-finished best-of-2025 3-hour playlist that comes from checking out roughly 500 albums this year and is put in chronological order. Like, maybe at the end of the list or something. :-)

Given Spotify’s life choices, I don’t know whether it will be viable for playlists after this year. As it is, it’s missing this song for I think that reason: Plant43’s ̶…

On January 30, the album I made for Grammy-nominated hip-hop legend Declaime finally comes out (singles January 2 and 16)!
I've been sitting on the masters since Groundhog Day, and it's relief as much as excitement to share this with you.

If you're creating a joke by writing your own lyrics to something, always make sure to match the meter.
That's what gets the joke to land.

@baseball-reference.com Hi! Is there an easy way to get Standings for Any Date (and the teams' schedule page records) to match the actual standings on those dates? Suspended games being counted to the day they started, instead of the day they completed, means historical research isn't reliable.

It's all 66 instances of a PR batting later that inning, then not taking the field.
Highlights:
Eric Davis/Peanuts Lowrey 2x
Cobb, Mungo, Stargell, & Mike Hampton

Also about music:
My song "7000 Sparks" is in @mmemaledicta.bsky.social's Pride 2025 mix, the corpus of which I'm now listening to.
The song's about navigating how parental relationships change over time. And my autism diagnosis reception got a similar frosty disbelief that many who come out get.
