#Blue

With this week's theme there are many many blues songs with blue in their titles.

That said, we're starting with Goatsnake's excellent Black Age Blues...

@rachel @astrid As one who writes the manuals, this warms my heart.
@reinodeboer Whoa. That's both hilarious and a little disturbing.

While it's just after 11AM in my timezone, meaning still 2AM in California, and I'm not sure where @neurothing hangs his hat, I've become terribly anxious to know what this week's #ThursdayFiveList prompt is.

Until then, I'm just digging on #Punjabi goodies from the 90s...

I asked an Indian colleague to recommend late 90s Banghra music because I didn't know what to look for - just that I loved Banghra Dance Party in about '99 on Bay Area TV. She clarified that Banghra is a dance style, and that I want music from Punjab. And she shared six YT playlists and Unforgettable Punjabi Hits of the 90s. She also said that the period was a low point for film, dance, and music, but I'm having a great day with it.

@sennoma I love this.

For five years, I had the litany against fear as my hand wash meme (printed and framed in our loo). It was just about the right length. Michael Stipe singing Underneath the Bunker also good.

@jwharrison My intro to Bollywood and Mohd Rafi was the use of this (so fantastic) song in Ghost World. While most of Rafi's music does not sound like this, I went through a list of his songs on Wikipedia and found the ones listed as Twists. (27 out of about 5000). Here's the playlist on Tidal:
