Every Valentine’s Day I ask everyone who follows me on Instagram their fave long song. Mine, for the record, is If I Were A Carpenter, the Four Tops version though Bob Dylan has a great cover with The Band. Recently I’ve been obsessed with Just Drifting by Psychic TV and think it’s one of the most romantic songs I’ve ever heard. Here is the responses I‘ve got:
I Love You Honeybear - Father John Misty
Just The Way You Are - Billy Joel
This Guy‘s In Love With You - Faith No More
Danger High Voltage - Electric Six
Do You Realize - Flaming Lips
Yard Of Blonde Girls - Inger Lorre
Dolls In The Dark - Drab Majesty
Surrender - Suicide
Laid - James
Love Song - The Cure
Our Way To Fall - Yo La Tengo
Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

You Make It Easy by Air & Beth Hirsh
It’s just so sweet, so soft, so beautiful. It makes me cry at the thought of having someone to think about when listening to this song.

No words just listen.
There never seems to be enough time to do the things you want to do once you find them…
I looked around enough to know that you’re the one I want to go through time with.

I love Darando. The whole album is full of love songs but this is my favorite.

You can borrow audiobooks on this app through your library card. Useful for all those socially conscious non-fiction books you see quoted and have been meaning to read. Also great for celebrity memoirs and long dead writers who recorded their own audio (C.S Lewis had such a lovely voice). For whatever reason I can’t pay attention to fiction audiobooks but maybe that’s just me.

Posting this only so people know the NYT games of wordle, connections and the mini crossword etc are FREE everyday. I think if you’re really good at the spelling bee and are going up past 30 points (and who is?) you have to be a paid subscriber, but you can get basic brain training every morning for FREE. Better than Wordscapes and no ads! Let’s all delay dementia together.
