Title: Let Forever Be
 
Favourite Lyrics: 
And how does it feel like to wake up in the sun
And how does it feel like to shine on everyone
How does it feel like to let forever be 

Why?: Though I can’t really pinpoint when I first heard this song, I do remember going through a period of being dismayed at the lack of real production value and quality in videos. Being a huge fan of Duran Duran, visuals are a huge part of how a song impresses on me. This video caught my attention and I enjoyed the effects. The song is catchy, the video mesmerizing. Enjoy!

Favourite Lyrics: 

If I could reach the stars

Why?: Yeah, yeah. I know. You're all sick of this meme. But it's a great 80's tune. And it's timely (heh). Happy End of Daylight Savings Time.

Stuff I'm Listening To - Special Cat Day Edition

Artist: the Cure
 
Title: the Lovecats
 
Lyrics: 
😸We slip through the streets while everyone sleeps 
getting bigger and sleeker and wider and brighter 😸

Why?: Special Cat Day Edition: 😻

I always enjoyed this Cure song and video. It’s one of those many happy pop tracks that appealed to me. Since they are one of those staple/required listening goth bands from near the beginning of the movement and, I was a regular at Sanctuary, this and the rest of their library was always in heavy rotation. Not all goth needed to be so dark. This was one of those happy-go-lucky goth tunes for me. Happy Cat Day everyone! Adopt!

Unfortunately, there isn't much selection for the actual video, so here is a link to director Tim Pope's page, where the original official video is embedded but not shareable.
