If your life were a movie, what would its theme song be?

I don't know why this particular TMBG song popped into my head for this prompt, but I'm going with it. "Everyone's excited and confused."

How do you discover new music, and what’s the latest gem you’ve found?

Right now my new music discovery system is an unholy merging of Gorilla vs. Bear, ScrobbleRad.io, and @keenan.

"Might Not Make It Home" is currently on repeat, thanks to the third part of the unholy merging.

What is a song that feels like home to you?

This one I sing to myself when I need it most, especially this part:

And I'm not saying that the effort is a waste of time, but I Just love you for the things you couldn't change though you tried These hours of confusion they will soon expire like Everything does

What’s the first song you’d play at a party?

If I wanted to get everyone (including myself) dancing, I'd play this one first.

A very special schmoopfest entry for today, because FunkyPlaid is coming home today! 🥰 Musically, this song lush and layered and I crawl inside it when I listen to it. The lyrics are unapologetic and melodramatic, just like I like 'em.

What’s your favorite love song, and why?

As a veritable schmoopfest walking around disguised as a meat-encrusted skeleton, I love love songs. But this is my very favorite. It reminds me of FunkyPlaid, of falling in love with him, and of our wedding, because this was our first dance, performed live by Rebecca and Ryan.

What’s a hidden gem or underrated song you love?

I remember the first time I heard this song. Everything was breaking apart in my relationship and I was on Muni (as I so often was) and this song was in my ears and I thought I might be able to survive it if I could listen to this song, just listen to this, keep listening, it's okay.

I hadn't heard this song before hearing it on the podcast "Heavyweight" (which I'm so excited is coming back). As soon as I listened to the whole song, especially the lyrics, it became a favorite.

I enjoy the strangeness of these lyrics. I also enjoy that it reminds me of the show "Search Party".

I'm all schmoopy tonight after seeing a wonderfully bittersweet film, missing my person. He comes home in six days, not that anyone's counting. (I am. I'm counting.)
