Song of the Moment XVII: Zedd’s “Clarity” (feat. Foxes)

Lately, I have been listening to “Clarity” (a Grammy Award-winning dance-pop/EDM song by Russian/German DJ Zedd that features British pop singer Foxes) on repeat, and initially, I don’t know why. (Pun intended.) But the more I listen to it, I realize that I… miss someone? Whatever. What I do know is that Foxes’ vocals on the song (most notably, the chorus) are so full of emotion that I can visualize her singing with all of her heart as Zedd delivers the sick instrumentals. And the entire lyrics scream what my heart wants to scream right now. Great job, Mr. Zedd and Ms. Foxes!

If our love is tragedy
Why are you my remedy?
If our love’s insanity
Why are you my clarity?

Also, I saw the music video for “Clarity” just now. I am 11 years too late to the party. Oops. But anyway, I love the video – specifically, I love the parts where Foxes is singing and all the VFX objects breaking and clashing with one another. That video, just like the song, totally earned my thumbs-up.

That is all.

Song of the Moment IX: Living Colour’s “Cult of Personality”

I’m so excited for the upcoming WWE Royal Rumble (2024) because a few of my favorites – Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Shinsuke Nakamura, Drew McIntyre, and Gunther – will join the Men’s Royal Rumble match. And after seeing the heated promo between Punk and Rhodes on Raw recently, the excitement turned up to 11. I’m so glad WWE uploaded the full segment on their YouTube channel, and I hope that either man will win.

In light of the upcoming match, I’m repeatedly listening to Living Colour’s “Cult of Personality” (CM Punk’s theme song). I will listen to Downstait’s “Kingdom” (Cody Rhodes’ theme song) tomorrow, but it’s Punk’s night for now.

I’m looking forward to this weekend!

10-Minute Warning CII

So, what can I share here under 10 minutes?

Right now, I just walked away from my usual jogging path because there is a car that has been circling around said path. I may be paranoid, but I have to stay away to be safe. As the saying goes, “It’s better to be safe than sorry.”

Anyway, I like the weather right now. The cool breeze makes the walking and jogging around comfortable. I like it! I will miss this kind of weather when March comes. (In the Philippines, March is the start of summer.)

What else? Oh! I just reached 6km. Good job, self! And thank you, my Mi Watch, for tracking my steps and kilometers reached.

I just remembered: Tetsuo Kurata of Kamen Rider BLACK will have a meet-and-greet tomorrow at The Linden Suites. This is a rare opportunity, so I might go there to have a photo taken with one of my childhood heroes. But that means I should wake up early on a Saturday. Wish me luck!

And time’s up.
