... I have no title for this

As we all surely know the NFE is live now. I don't have much to say about it at this juncture yet except A) my gift is fabulous!; B) TWO Star Wars crossovers?!



Somehow, what I wanted to share instead, in that late-evening manner this blog suffers from, is this:

I have memories of a song playing on the PA system in my hometown in my childhood.

I don't remember the song.
I remember how it was sunny, and how that song somehow slotted into the atmosphere.

And I know it was not this song - it cannot have been simply because it's recent - but at the same time, it is that song. Somehow.

It's my father's favourite band. (As in, he went to see them live, in Latvia, favourite.) He listened to it a lot this spring, when we were cooped up together in lockdown, and it was sunny outside.

There was a meme a friend shared on Facebook recently - about the songs we listened to on repeat when we thought our world was ending.

This isn't the song I listened to when I thought my world was ending. This is the song reminding me that it isn't.



Which is why I wanted to share it with you.

There are THREE Star Wars xovers. I've not read the big Mandalorian one yet. It has footnotes!
