That is all.

Song of the Moment III: Sheryl Crow’s “If It Makes You Happy”

A little part of me wants to talk about how I’m feeling today. Instead, let me quote the chorus of one of my favorite songs ever and my current LSS.

If it makes you happy
It can’t be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

Song of the Moment II: Ghost’s “Zenith”

Ghost, a heavy metal/hard rock band hailing from Sweden and one of my favorite bands ever, just released a compilation album called 13 Commandments yesterday. And to my delight, one of the tracks on the album is their best song yet but has never been officially released in digital form until now. And now that it’s on YouTube and on my Spotify, this awe-inspiring track is on repeat.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is “Zenith”.
