Kpop…oh, wait!
This is a weekend for KPop, because I feel like it. Ever wonder what KPop genre is - is it popular songs sung by or created by South Koreans? Does collaboration count? How does that apply to American Pop, or UK Pop, or...? I love the collaborations proliferating across the music world, trans-border, across different… Continue reading Kpop…oh, wait!
We cry, it’s ok
So recommendations on my music streaming service... and beautiful songs to share. "Sometimes we cry in the daytime... sometimes it's dark in the daylight." And "It's okay to be not okay, it's just fine to be out of your mind. Breathe in deep just a day at a time." ~ FlorenceT © 2021 FlorenceT Copyright… Continue reading We cry, it’s ok

Cynics say
Cynics speak of the transactional nature of love. Maybe it is not so. And perhaps it is, on a functional perspective. In daily activities, choices are made. In the realm of human existence, decisions are taken. Give and take, so they say. We take stock; subconsciously for what cannot be measured. And in the midst… Continue reading Cynics say

An ordinary path
I understand enough Mandarin, for it to serve me in my travels. So perhaps it is understanding what the lyrics mean that drew me to this song. Perhaps it is the poignant melody. Or both. The unofficial translation of the poetic Mandarin lyrics does not do it justice, yet it is the closest I could… Continue reading An ordinary path
