Song of the Moment XXXV: Living Colour’s “Cult of Personality” (Again)

For some strange reason, the 1st thing I do when I feel happy is listen to a favorite song. It’s either “The Pretender” by Foo Fighters (my favorite song of all time), Finn Bálor’s 1st theme song (I love this song over his current one), or “Cult of Personality” by Living Colour (an excellent hard rock song and CM Punk’s theme song). Today, I’m listening to the latter on repeat. Again.

(This is the 2nd time “Cult of Personality” is my Song of the Moment. You can check out the 1st post here.)

I hope this happy mood lasts for long. And speaking of CM Punk, his rivalry against Drew McIntyre is one of the most exciting storylines in WWE recently, and they have not fought in a match yet. I’m looking forward to their inevitable bout.

Happy week ahead, everyone!

10-Minute Warning CXXVI

OK. What can I write here in under 10 minutes?

My normal Saturday would start by waking up at noon, having my 1st meal of the day, taking a bath, writing in my journal, and catching up on WWE SmackDown! via YouTube. But today, it started at 2pm. I overslept and somehow I feel bad about it.

So, tonight, I will do what I should have done hours ago – journal writing and catching up on WWE’s blue brand. But firstly I will buy some fried chicken from McDonald’s. I’m hungry.

And as of blogging here lately, I have been blogging for 5 days straight. That’s because I missed out on a few blogging days when I was in Tokyo with my family. So, good job, self!

See you tomorrow, Sunday.

Song of the Moment XXXIV: Justin Timberlake’s “Like I Love You” (featuring Clipse)

Last June 24, 2024, I walked and jogged on my favorite jogging path for an hour after more than a week of not exercising. And the exact second I stopped jogging, heavy rain poured. I ran to the nearest parking building, and for some strange reason, I wanted to hear this song from Justin Timberlake. I don’t remember the title, but I remember this line:

If you smile, then that should set the tone

So, I googled “Justin Timberlake” and the above line on my phone, then finally saw and remembered the song title: “Like I Love You”. I quickly opened my Spotify and then played the song on repeat. What a dance-worthy song. And I also learned the name of the one who made and performed the rap verse: a hip-hop duo named Clipse. Thank you, Google and Wikipedia.

Now let me listen to this Justin Timberlake classic on repeat again. Happy weekend!
