WELCOME DECEMBER! ❄⛄🎄

Song: December
Artist: Kenny Loggins

I can't believe we are in the final month of 2024! It feels like this year just started! Despite my constant moaning and groaning here on the blog, it's actually been a pretty great year for me! Of course it's had it's challenges and I still feel ashamed for not having made much progress forward in life, but I was able to celebrate and enjoy a lot of things! From seeing MJ The Musical back in February to the Underneath Experience Tour in November! It's been a year where I have prioritized ME and my interests and that's brought me a lot of joy.

I'm already thinking ahead to this next year and I want to prioritize myself again, but this time with a serious focus on self-improvement. Getting healthier, making more money and finding greater fulfillment in life. But we'll talk about that another time. Maybe. Since I am planning on retiring this old blog, but I may still pop in from time to time if any exciting developments should occur. 

I didn't know what to kick-off the Christmas season with so we're going for a song I've never actually heard before but saved to my Christmas playlist! And I found the title appropriate. So we get a little song review today, yay! 🎉

Live Reaction: Starting off with a very beautiful piano intro, giving me Last Unicorn vibes...haha, #IYKYK. Definitely lullaby-esque. Much more bittersweet than I was expecting. I really enjoyed it. I like the melancholy with the hope. That felt very fitting for how I'm feeling and where I'm at, especially this year when it doesn't even feel like Christmas. I still need to set up my Christmas décor but I've been sick all day and wasn't up to it. Here's to hoping I can get to it tomorrow! 


Once upon a dream
Moonlit wings come into view
Winter casts her spell
And all the world is born anew
A child sees a star through a window
He knows with all his heart
That wonder is coming
Waiting
Hoping
Believing

Only in December
Are hearts so full
Or feel more alone
Could it be the same
For everyone

Only in December
Can the broken heart
Feel so alive
And the autumn ashes
Become the fires of December
Can I be inside
And out of the cold
Still I know
December always leads me home
I still believe in magic
Always leads me home
And I still believe in miracles, mmm yes
Still believe in Christmas
I still believe in love

Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You"

Song: Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You" Artist: The Hound + The Fox Wow this is so good! 🥀 So, funny enough, I just watched the 1990's Addams Family film for the first time eva a couple days ago and then  this video pops up on my youtube feed (if this isn't proof that the government is stalking us through technology IDK what is! 😱). Anyway, even though I didn't care for the movie all that much, I thought this song captured Morticia and Gomez perfectly! And it's actually a really, beautiful love song for Halloween time! I especially like the bridge (and I'm pretty sure it's a direct quote from the movie because when I heard them singing it I was like "That sounds familiar...." 🤔). We all need somebody to rot next to at the end.... 😂 Sorry about the dark humor 😈🖤🥀 I see you like  A night with a full moon  I feel you like a flame  You cast a spell on me  I like how you make me weak  I play you like a game  I hope w...

Siren Call

Song: Siren Call Artist: Hanson This song is off of Hanson's Fan Club EP: Loud (2016). I have been slightly obsessed with this haunting song as of late. This song is about dealing with depression ( Zac Hanson even said so ! Be forewarned, explicit language is used in this video. I'm so sorry). Once I heard Zac explain the meaning and message behind this song it made so much sense to me! I have always loved it and I've always known it had a powerful message but I could never quite figure out what it was. This song is about struggling. Being weighed-down by the burdens and challenges life brings to each and every one of us. When we stop and allow ourselves to "give in" to the pain and sadness that comes with the stress of life, that's when we begin to slip and fall into a deep depression. That's when our "Siren's Call" us. And pull us down. No straighter path than to struggle .... This is perfect. And it's true. Life is a constan...

Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley

Song: Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley Artist: From Youtube I found this really creepy, cool medley/cover on youtube. I really like it! Major  Halloween  vibes from two  Halloween  inspired movies. The  Corpse Bride  lyrics were written by the person who posted/sang this song. She does a great job! Thanks for sharing  Trickywi ! I sense there's something in the wind That feels like tragedy's at hand And though I'd like to stand by him Can't shake this feeling that I have The worst is just around the bend And does he notice my feelings for him? And will he see how much he means to me? I think it's not to be Under a tree at quarter three, I had some hope in me But life was taken from me, but I did not feel peace I made a vow within my gown that love will come to me But there he is and suddenly I had been found I adore him What will become of my dear friend Where will his actions lead us then? Although I'd like to join the crowd In thei...
