I don't know about you, but I, for one, am glad that 2019 is over and the Roaring Twenties are now here. I have no idea what's in store for the new year...probably some good things and bad things and sad things and...well, life. Just like any other year.
Well, today is the first day of a new year and so we all begin anew with a fresh new page in our lives. At least for now we dream that 2020 is gonna be the best ever. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year everybody! You know today is the day everybody makes all these crazy resolutions that they'll break within a couple of weeks, which is kind of stupid! My only resolution, like it always is, is to just be happy! Here's Mary...
Another one of my favorite tunes of the year comes from Diplo, in collaboration with Danish singer MO. Not only does the mid-tempo tune have a nice sound, the message is oh so important and one which I hope...I believe I did this year! Here's Get It Right...
I had a really hard time choosing a first Song of the Day for the New Year. I wanted, like I do so often, to make some meaning out of my choice relevant to the particular day, and this first day of 2017 just beckons for a meaningful choice. The year 2016 was a rough one for many of us, and I know there are plenty of people who are glad it's over, including me. Over the past month especially, there have been so many deaths both in the celebrity world and even in my own personal sphere that you can help but contemplate just how precious life is.
I've been thinking a lot abut life during this recent period and I've come to the conclusion that yeah, life is meant to be lived, and not simply to be going through the motions like many of us do, I am guilty of that myself most of the time. The concept of a bucket list, which first came to light in the movie of the same name, is a little morbid, perhaps, but it does speak to this idea of living life to its fullest. And so my choice of Nelly Furtado's song version of the concept is very appropriate for today, As we all make our resolutions to lose weight or quit smoking in the new year, I am going to make an effort to go through my bucket list more than ever in the coming 12 months. In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy Nelly's song. Happy New Year!
