Life goes on day after day.

Good morning! It is peak summer, and I am a little unmotivated. Why not create a playlist of songs produced by Trevor Horn, staring with a thirteen minute banger that will take me all the way and into the park?

So 80s. Totally New Wave. Totally.

My left knee hurts most of the time. I have a bandage on that. My shins feel better. Got decent sleep last night. That's all it takes man. eight hours, it makes all the difference. If I could just keep that up for the rest of my life, I'm good.

Lots of stuff going on, in my head. Writing I am struggling with

My playlists for the years 1983 and 1984 are far and away the longest, with nearly nineteen hours of music on both lists. Why are these two years so important to me? Because I was fifteen, sixteen years old? Because upbeat dance music was particularly popular, there was more of it?

Maybe it was Trevor Horn.

What was 1983? MTV and compulsive masturbation. Started smoking weed. AFS dance party on our driveway. Serious FOMO. There were Germans in our house, the Cold War was in high dudgeon. Europe never felt so close.
