  • VT4J23 - Day 30 - A great closing track

    Jump

  • -Song - Only in Dreams -Album - Weezer (1994) -Artist - Weezer

    Seems fitting to choose this as I'm off to see Weezer tonight. A great album closer and one of their best songs.

  • A long work day and I failed to post in my own thread! Appreciate everyone keeping it alive! My song for today is from one of the GOATs - Marvin Gaye. Depressingly, it's just as relevant today.

  • I tried to start a silly forum-based role playing game once. I wanted the entire board to just be classified ads for and by superheroes and villains. From the mundane to the spectacular. It's an idea that still makes me laugh at the possibilities.

  • I'll put my thoughts on this post as it showed up as I scrolled to get to the one from a day or two ago...I have 5 different Lemmy apps installed right now. Figure that there is going to be a lot of experimentation and work being done right now, so it's nice to see what everyone is doing.

    • Jerboa - Personally, I really like Jerboa. Being the most mature of the bunch shows. It's well laid out, has just enough UI options, and works. Except that now Beehaw isn't on v0.18.

    • Connect - Not open source at this time, I get why that matters to people, but not a deal breaker for me. Typing this comment in Connect. Just updated this morning with additional and redesigned settings. There is about a thumbs width of space between this comment box and my keyboard. That's kind of yucky.

    • Liftoff - I'm hopeful for this one. It LOOKS the best to me, but there's some weird UX issues. Biggest being that the only place to see your replies/notifications is the top of the Home feed with no quick way to get there if you've been scrolling.

    • Thunder - I can see the potential, but it's not for me right now. No buttons on comments, you have to use swipe gestures. But posts have buttons. Changing UI options doesn't actually change anything 95% of the time.

    • Summit - You want a zero frills, dark mode way of browsing and interacting? This is that. I'd love a FEW options (like light mode), but it's fast and easy. Uhh...just realized I can't find a way to make a new post...

    • Wefwef.app - Last one. Really slick looking and responsive, but too iOS-y for me. It also claims to have light mode, but I can't figure out how to switch it. Really polished though.

  • Between you and me, I haven't been checking. 🫢

    It started on the vinyl sub and so that's what I'm sticking with, but at the end of the day, it's just about sharing music we enjoy. I'll update my description for these last few!

    • Song - Wildflowers
    • Album - Wildflowers
    • Artist - Tom Petty

    I like to start my mornings off quietly. There will be enough noise and chaos later. For now, let me sip my coffee and relax.

  • VT4J23 - Day 24 - A song, album, or artist with a number in it

    Jump

  • I wonder what the most well known song with a number in it is...this seems like it would be up there, but probably loses to 1999.

  • Could just do half of Prince's discography. 7 would have been a good one too.

  • VT4J23 - Day 25 - A song for a movie scene

    Jump
    • Song - Mekong
    • Album - Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy
    • Artist - The Refreshments

    As noted in the OP, I don't really like the prompt. So I'm taking it to just mean that the song evokes a specific scenario. I had a co-worker that decided The Refreshments major label debut was a concept album that deserved to be made into a movie. And he was right. Clyne's songs are so descriptive and specific that it's hard not to imagine the scene playing out.

  • Great tune. I'm not a Giz devotee, but I really appreciate how they just seem to write whatever the hell they feel like. Stylistically, the new album was just not doing it for me this week, but then there's this and it could be a completely different band.

  • I don't think I've ever seen or heard this album, but this song is frigging awesome. I'll definitely be giving the album some time this week. Thanks!

    • Song - 32 Pennies
    • Album - Greatest & Latest
    • Artist - Warrant

    Back to 80s rock today. Greatest & Latest features re-recordings of some of their songs with a few new ones mixed in. Generally, the re-recordings are a little looser, slower, and not as heavily produced as the originals. I quite enjoy them. Honestly hope that with Taylor Swift's "Taylors Versions" we see more full scale re-recordings by some artists. Time and experience can really be heard and lend something new.
