Today's ear worm is "What's Going On?", by Madilyn Mei.
Musically it's fun and bouncy. Lyrically, it's insightful.
(It talks to the emotions around (not) fitting in/loneliness.)
Actually, you could say that about the whole album.

Today my brain is in conflict. Between "Bamboo Banga" and "Paper Planes", both by M.I.A.
Not a mash-up - each is taking turns. (Although the latter feels more likely to win.)

Well, I failed to follow my own advice. (See: odemap.substack.com/p/be-prepare...).
I was listening to a song and was inspired by the lyrics. I didn’t note it down and I lost it. I spend ages reviewing song lyrics and I found it.
“Solace”
That’s it - 1 word.
