For my first #ThursdayFiveList, we got #TheBlue songs.

I Monster - Daydream in Blue (I've been listening to this one a lot lately)

Electric Light Orchestra- Mr. Blue Sky (Love this song, inspired the great #Portal #fanfiction "Blue Sky")

Regina Spektor - Blue Lips

Catherine Feeny - Mr Blue (I found this song through #BoJackHorseman )

I couldn't pick between these last two so I'll mention both:

Steely Dan - Deacon Blues

Against Me! - Transgender Dysphoria Blues (Does this count as #TheBlue? Whatever it's a good song. TW for f slur in pre-chorus)

A while ago on the foul place I asked for song recommendations which are about very **specific** feelings, especially ones that are otherwise hard to describe or not often discussed.

I received a fantastic list I saved somewhere…. That I can’t find. Determined to not repeat this mistake entirely, I ask for #SongRecs , for which I’ll make & share a playlist.

Somehow I totally missed the fact Ryan Adams just released a whole album of Oasis covers. It even includes 4 (What's the story) Morning Glory?-era b-sides too. I have no idea why he did this in 2023, but I'm here for it.

Current status: listening to "Every When" by Rebel Moves on repeat.

It is impossible for me to stay still while listening to this. It's fantastic: I wind up chair dancing and then getting up and dancing around the room.

Highly recommended for dance breaks at your desk, which we all deserve. 💋

I am within touching distance of 25k artists scrobbled on #lastfm. Hit me with some banger recommendations of off the beaten path artists.

Finally a new track by #Gorillaz that I actually like. Everyone's been fawning over the new album yet none of the tracks released so far really moved the needle for me.

Skinny Ape by Gorillaz
