Song of the Moment LXXXI: CFO$’s “Root of All Evil” (feat. Incendiary)

Aleister Black returns to WWE and attacks The Miz.

On last week’s SmackDown, Aleister Black returned and attacked The Miz. Sorry, Miz, you are one of my favorites of the modern era, but seeing Black on WWE makes me so happy because he is also a favorite of mine of this era. I have been a fan of Black since I saw his match against Neville at WWE’s United Kingdom Championship Tournament in 2017 (his name is Tommy End at that time), and then I followed his NXT and main roster run. He has a dark, mysterious aura, and his strikes are precise and vicious. If Black and The Undertaker would battle it out in the ring to see who’s the best pure striker, that would be awesome.

Side note: I wish I could say that I followed Aleister Black’s entire AEW run as Malakai Black, but I can’t. I only saw a few matches, but that’s it. Sorry.

Anyway, not only is Aleister Black back in WWE, but his first (and best) WWE theme song, “Root of All Evil”, is back as well. (Well, a remix of it, at least.) “Root of All Evil” sounds like an epic orchestral rock song you would hear during the apocalypse, and it is my third favorite pro wrestling theme of all time next to Finn Bálor’s “Catch Your Breath” and The Undertaker’s theme. Hearing it again on WWE again makes me so ecstatic.

After seeing Aleister Black’s return, I looked up “Root of All Evil” on Spotify, but sadly it’s not available there. Because of that, I’m listening to it on YouTube for now.

Welcome back, Aleister Black!

Song of the Moment LXXIX: Pieter Anø’s “Purple Rain” (A Prince Cover) (Again)

After an incredibly stressful and honestly unfulfilling day, I don’t feel like making another Minute Warning post. I just want to listen to sad piano music while drinking my favorite Jack & Coke Zero tonight. (But I can’t drink tonight because it’s not the weekend yet. I’m tempted to drink my favorite cocktail, but no. Water is fine, thank you.)

Anyway, what am I listening to as I type this? It’s Pieter Anø’s melancholic cover of “Purple Rain” (Prince’s greatest song, in my opinion). This is the second time the song has been my Song of the Moment, and I will listen to it a few more times and then go to sleep.

Will I feel better tomorrow? I don’t know. Maybe not.

See you soon, I hope.

Song of the Moment LXXIII: Queen’s “Father to Son”

Today’s work tasks made my head spin because there were too many numbers to deal with. But I endured them all because, after work, I spent some quality time with my Father at my favorite cafe Satchmi. My Father had an espresso and, because their affogato is still unavailable, I had an iced mocha.

Whenever I’m alone with my Father, he always talks about how he grew up poor and how he gave his blood, sweat, and tears to achieve success. He also reminds me to be strong no matter how tough it gets. I have heard his stories before, but I keep listening because the entire family and I would not have a comfortable life if he did not work hard. I will always be thankful to my Father, and I’m trying my best to be as strong as he is.

Oh… Queen’s “Father to Son” was playing on my mind when I talked to my Father today. So tonight, it’s my Song of the Moment. (And have I mentioned that Queen is one of my top five favorite bands of all time? No? Now you know.)

Queen’s “Father to Son”.

Until the next post.
