Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
Until it all explodes / I’ll dream of you and cry
You can’t control the way you feel / You’d rather run away and hide / I bet it hurts way more to heal / When you’re so tangled up inside
Why oh why / Can’t I say goodbye
Halfway through the month of Sagittarius, and it’s week three of my “year end count around” for ’23. It’s not time to say goodbye, but it is time to bid farewell to the music of 2023. TVD is going on holiday break, so here it is.
Again, my annual “Golden Shower of Idelic Hits” is more a year end “count around” than count down. I put the set together in no order. The “playlist” is really just a big shout out to these artists for helping 2023 be as cool year for rock ‘n’ roll as it could. I mean on one hand, what a crazy fucked year—and world—but as I listen to the output of these last 3 Idelic hours what comes to mind is:
What a beautiful morning it is in Laurel Canyon.
So cool to have a birthday dinner with Susan, Zoe, and Jonah.
Thank you Jon and the TVD crew, and thank god for rock ‘n’ roll.
See ya or hear me out in 2024!
