The Struts recorded this while "trapped" at their producer's home during lockdown. I find it uplifting..:
"Strange Days" (video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5e8C1nhe_s )
Play your favorite song and sing it out loud
Take a deep breath and in time you'll begin to smile
Listen to the wind, it's the sweetest of sounds
Smilin' at the stranger on the underground
Every little thing that you do goes a long, long way
But isn't it good to be down here alive?
Something money could never buy
It's worth more than a million roses
In many strange ways
Science fiction, I believe
Has become reality
Lost in our minds
We don't know, it's unclear
Where we'll be this time next year
Hope this finds you well dear friend ... ?
Someone sent this CD today for a little surprise b'day gift ... THE HU/Gereg/The Wolf.... super band so ahhhmazing!!
' Wolf' (THE HU) would make a perfect Biden/Harris campaign song lols ... agree??
??? Well worth checking out ... ???☺️
To anyone who doesn't watch the Lincoln Project. They had a hilarious 70s/80s cop show clip about Biden (Big Man) and Trump (Tiny Hands) during 'the Breakdown'. It's about 20.45 minutes into the Breakdown itself.

Enjoy;-)
*THE HU*.... Badass vids on YTube....?
Wow-- Who (hu?) knew Mongolian folk-metal was a thing?
Very interesting indeed. It's a bit too aggressive in spirit for my personal psyche, but it's definitely cool and worth a listen.
Aggressive? Well these guys ROCK.... Yeah a reminder that all the chakras flow together ?
It is ironic that they sound so much like Tibetan chanting, and that *HU* is the most sacred word in the Universe ...?
I do love the indigenous and Universal, much like our Native American music here in the US...
There are English subtitles in most of *The Hu* vids on YTube, and I am sorry that I am "tech-challenged" so that I could not post the link ...
'Wolf Totem' is sooo apropos right now...?
Peace & Love my dear ..... ?
@ana, thanks for sharing The Struts video and lyrics. Loved it! First time I've heard them -- maybe a reflection my senior status and no kids/grandkids! I intend to purchase some of their music. ?
I think we are about the same age (ready to be pushed onto the septuagenarian platform of wisdom? ☺️), and at least still have our "rockin' "chairs....
I enjoyed The Struts vid (thank you Ana) as well, lyrics especially... does Luke Spiller remind anyone of Chrissie H. from the Pretenders?
The Yin to the Yang ... (The Hu) have some surprises in their repetoire, like ' Song of Women' & ' Legend of Mother Swan'.... I do kinda like that vision of the Mongol warriors (replete with their astounding instruments) descending on the Drumpf campaign tho, lol !?
O these are strange days .... ?
