Oh boy, what a ride!
Abysmal and uncertain as it sometimes may seem I'm glad you're still doing these, and impressed at how they seem to keep evolving each year, not just the perspectives you have on the world and life and all but the complexities of the music, the pace changes, the melodies and catchy choruses and the masterful way everything ties together...
This was great. Bleak circumstances mayhaps, with a harried and fragile social order and political landscape that seems on the brink of collapse sometimes, but I love how you traverse these issues; make it both fun and sad and relatable all at once.
Happy Birthday once again LazyMuffin! If you weren't as introspective as you were these wouldn't be half as good I think, but I do hope you reach a more joyous place or state of mind in time. :) Until then... looking forward to the next one already!
