An Arboreal Playlist
Introduction In the seventies, I knew of a band called Trees but dismissed them as another folk band, but recently one of the Facebook groups I am in posted one of their songs and I was so impressed that I bought the fiftieth-anniversary collection above, and have been mightily impressed by their work, and given the live songs on here they are still with us in some form (with more original members that the Human League).

Singing My Way to Spanish Fluency Through Music
Have you ever tried learning a new language, only to feel like your brain is tangled in a mess of words—even in your own native tongue? That’s exactly where I find myself after 178 days of learning Spanish (along with Portuguese and refreshing my French) on Duolingo. Some days, I feel like I’m making real progress; other days, my pronunciation trips me up, and my confidence wavers. My husband jokes that all this language learning has even muddled my English—which, considering my family history, might not be too far off the mark.

Iconic Movie Scores That Shaped My Love for Film Music (Part 1)
Film scores have a way of transporting us beyond the screen, embedding themselves in our memories long after the credits roll. Some themes inspire heroism, others evoke deep emotions, and a few become so iconic that they transcend the films they were written for. In this piece, I want to highlight some of my favourite movie scores—ones that have shaped my appreciation for film music and storytelling.

New Drools as Paul Simon Steals the Show
The Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary special was an star-studded blast featuring an abundance of laughter, squeezings of music and five decades of pop culture history. But one moment topped the rest: Paul Simon, the legendary singer-songwriter, teaming up with Gen-Z pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter for a poignant opening performance of his classic hit, “Homeward Bound.” Not only was this crossover a musical high point — it was indicative of the bridge between generations that has kept S.N.L. alive for half a century.

Take The Money And Run - A Pecuniary Playlist
Introduction I hope this is not too tasteless, given the state of things, but I was just thinking about how money, for many, has become the new God or Devil.

Do You Even Anime?
Hey all! I’m back with our final community playlist. Naturally, I’m sad that it’s the end, but considering how drastically the participation has dwindled, I can’t see a valid reason to keep going. The playlists ought to be at least forty-five minutes to an hour in length, don’t you agree? If they end up significantly shorter, it doesn’t seem worthwhile.

Repeat, Repeat
Introduction Pointless has a question that featured five songs that have a two-word title featuring the same word. I thought that would be a good idea for a frivolous playlist and we will start with a David Bowie song and finish with the David Bowie song that was included in the Pointless list.
