"Holiday" by Madonna
A song that reminds you of your last vacation or holiday.
I like to think of the version from The Wedding Singer where Adam Sandler's character is completely miserable while singing it.
Hopefully, I'll be able to make it somewhere nice.
I’ve been reading some of the responses to the price increases coming to 1Password. I feel that a lot of the grumbling comes from the fact that it has been a little flakey after the change to the infrastructure in version 8 and the rise of some affordable alternatives.
For me, I will continue to use the application because I store more than just passwords in the system. I’ve also spent a lot of time training my dad to use 1Password.
"Makeba" by Jain
A song in a language that you don't know.
I don't remember where or when I came across this song, but I'm happy that I did. I tried listening to other songs but it feels like a different style. I'll try doing a listening session tomorrow to see if I feel the same way.
"It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" by R.E.M.
If today were a genre, what would it be? Pick a matching song.
Just kidding, but this does remind me that I should watch "Don't look up".
"Walk This Way (feat. Aerosmith)" by Run-DMC
What’s a remix or cover you like more than the original?
There's something about this that just rocks! 🤘🏾
I love hear about how Run-DMC wanted to change the lyrics, but kept them the same in order to really bring home how rock and rap have similarities.
"Tumba" by Angélique Kidjo
What’s a hidden gem or underrated song you love?
I heard this song ages ago and still love it. The whole album is really good and worth multiple listening sessions.
"Jort Storm (Radio Edit)" by Slimecicle
What’s a song that grew on you over time?
My daughter introduced me to this song. At first, I was just listening to it to have something in common, but I can see myself adding it to a playlist or two.
Dear Future Me,
Sorry. Here are the notes you need to do that important project.

"Beautiful (You Are)" by IMx
What’s your favorite deep cut from an album?
It's hard to beat the influence of the music that you listened to in high school and in your 20s. I thought this group was going to be the NEXT BIG THING.
This one goes out to all the love birds out there!
Part of me wonders if I had wasted some of my time and energy being passionate about things that ultimately doesn't matter as much. Greg was talking about some of the tech that he uses and it got me thinking about what I use as well.
Part of me misses the enthusiasm. There was something genuinely fun about getting excited over a new app, tinkering with a workflow, spending a Sunday afternoon setting up a system that would last three weeks before I tore it down and started again.
I remember having a discussion about how some people like android over iOS, and a coworker that I trusted stated that it’s tribal. Maybe the feeling of belonging is missing.
