Rec | THIS IS THE DAY BY THE THE

🪗

discovered this song after it came on in the credits for the film the outrun and it’s literally so good the start literally hooks you with the crazy cool and unique accordion then the rest of the song is also amazing i love the bittersweet feel of it with the line ‘this is the day your life will surely change’ that most people can relate to when you swear to yourself you’ll break your bad habits to make a better life for yourself, deciding that THIS will be the day youll change but you could say that any day again and again and never actually do anything to change or stick with it

A wake up anthem

Because you gotta start your day off right. It can change over time, but I enjoy having one that helps me focus on my theme. Some past examples: Running Away - The Polyphonic Spree On Our Way - The Royal Concept Treat People With Kindness -Harry Styles

Song Rec - This will be our year by the zombies

Ok I know I’m hella late to this because I feel like everyone already knows this song but I discovered it from a tumblr post of the lyrics and I was so moved by them that I had to listen to it. I’d always been kinda anti-The Zombies because annoying people I went to high school with really like them and after listening to the rest of this album I do feel kinda vindicated in that (soz). BUT this song is so good and I can already tell it will become an all-timer for me. I love it because it’s a love song that also can read as being about other things and it’s so hopeful and full of yearning and uncertainty. Also the piano part at the beginning reminds me a lot of “Praise You” by Fatboy Slim. It’s the perfect mix of great lyricism and just enough 60s psychedelic pop.

seeing someone before they see you

there’s something so funny about seeing a friend before they notice you cause it’s like a look into what they’re like alone seeing how they walk when they’re by themselves or their expression when they’re just going about or looking around

still on season 1 but it’s so good and entertaining watching it cause it’s 90s and kind of mystery similar vibe to twin peaks since it was inspired by it so yas
