Song of the Moment LXXX: Ghost’s “Lachryma”

This work week has been astoundingly stressful, and I feel it’s just the beginning of more stress. Because of that, I’m going to make my weekend extra special. For starters, I’m drinking an ice-cold Jack & Coke Zero early while listening to Ghost’s new single, “Lachryma”.

I love the new song because it sounds like old-school Ghost but on another level. And the accompanying music video is amazing—Papa V Perpetua looks hauntingly regal.

The music video of Ghost’s “Lachryma”.

I’m supposed to write more, but now I feel buzzed. Anyway, Ghost’s new album Skeletá will be released on April 25, 2025. I’m excited about it!

Happy weekend, everyone!

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.

10-Minute Warning CLXXII

Hello, Diary. I’m back after a pretty wonderful weekend, which is why I have not blogged the past few days.

What happened? Well, I don’t want to spill the details because I’m tired, but here’s what I can vaguely tell for now:

  • Last Friday, I had a pleasant stroll and a tasty burrito despite the drizzle.
  • Last Saturday, I met and had a photo taken with my childhood crush.
  • I had a solemn Mass and a lovely Sunday dinner with my family.

That’s pretty much it. And I’m aware that I still have not reached my monthly blog count, but I don’t care because, like I said, I had a pretty wonderful weekend.

See you tomorrow!
