In Which songs from 2011 bring me some memories of days past... a post done out of nostalgia

Good morning my excellent friend, reader of this present post! How are you? How is the week going? It has begun, and I pray, in a good way. I am overall okay. Not much else to be said, really. Just awaken way too late in the night/early in the morning. I will likely be sleepy by 6 to 7AM, but I won't desire to sleep. It will be that annoying battle against the heavy eyes. At times I am with much anxiety to sleep. Maybe I should look for some other comfort beverage besides coffee. I did cut to 3 mugs a day, 4 if I am indulgent... I used to think it would just make me stay awake, but it just mitigates sleepy time, so the enchantment over caffeine has been dimmed...  This is just a series of impromptu thoughts I had when the social media algorithm recommended me a post with by now old songs, tunes that were mainstream a decade ago.

Song of the week! In which we go on an adventure With the Pharao's Dance

Hello everyone, happy Friday to you and good Afternoon, how are you today and how are things going? As usual, I wish you the best and hope things are doing well! How is the weather where you are? Here it is rainy and cloudy, a weather I very much enjoy, the weather is fresh, how lovely! I marked some doctor appointment for me as well, so I can get my sleep on check, I always like taking care of my health, on the ways I can do, I mean, it is quite lovely to do so! I should do some drawings as well, but today I mostly wanted to play Civ VI and read my book! Let us see how it goes indeed! For now, so far so good, and today is song of the week as well, and I have a very special piece to share with you guys, a true adventure by Miles Davis, the Pharao's Dance! And just as I typed this post it started raining, I'm so happy, rain is so full of life, the smell is great as well, almost makes me go take a shower in it!



Released in 1970, with the album Bitches Brew, This huge song is a carnival for the senses, opening our ears to an incredible experience of softness and also intensity hard to get anywhere else, this song doesnt feel 20 minutes long either, it definitely flow by fast but also gently, on this very interesting kind of jazz. I found amazing how Jazz is diversified, having so many interpretations of it, this is one of the most creative, and I definitely recommend to you guys! And this is it for today, just another song for you guys to maybe listen and enjoy! Wish you the best and you are the best! See you next time!
