I'd like to start off by tonight's season update by welcoming our newest Seasonista, @acharman (Andrew)!
Scroll up a few posts and be a cool cucumber and consider contributing a kind and considerate comment or constructive critique of his cover of Counting Crows' Colorblind.
aaaaaaand enough c-words (keep your minds out of the gutter).
Ten new entries these past 24hrs or so and, I must admit, I have to catch up on dedicated listens and comments on all of them.
The 11th is below... my cover of Eddie Vedder's Society.
There has been a good amount of sharing this week and it's interesting to get below the surface level with some of those who've put themselves out there. Sometimes, we might be wary to even scratch that surface, like a soft top uke with satin finish. Others perhaps don't mind digging in, like a Willy Nelson guitar (anyone on IG catch Taimane's post of her old ukes?! I will post it later). Anyways... I appreciate any level of sharing or not sharing that folks are comfortable sharing, and I love the support I've seen thru it all.
In one comment, Mark mentioned he sponsors AA and CA. I had no idea what CA was, so I had to look it up (Cocaine Anonymous, to save you the trouble, if you're thinking of googling it). Well.. in that search, I also found out there are many other programs!... another of which I hadn't heard of... CLA or Clutterers Anonymous!!!
I will be the first to admit that I have too much stuff and UAS hit me pretty hard (not like Andrew , and this song is NOT intended to be directed at anyone here). I definitely have some clutterer or hoarding tendencies that I've been trying to shake, which may have been passed down from my parents and their parents before 'em. I've discussed root causes with with my wife, mainly regarding my parents' collection of 'stuff'. I'm working on selling some ukes and other things I've collected over the years. Also tryyying not to get any more things that I don't need. I think there's some definite brain cells synapsing here and there when they don't need to be, that fits within the season theme (I really don't need to convince the host, as I am him).
I'm rambling. Anyways... while thinking about CLA, I remembered a line from 'Society,'
I think I need to find a bigger place
'Cause when you have more than you think
You need more space
Then, when I was learning/reading the lyrics, I saw the overthinking lines that reminded me of @jtsteam 's overthinker song (above)
When you want more than you have
You think you need
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
Interesting how it tied together a bit. Ahhhh the human mind.
Alright... enough chitter chatter. How bout the video...
