Song of the Day: 'I Belong in Your Arms' by Chairlift
After watching 10 black people get massacred in their local supermarket, a gay man get executed on the subway and now 19 Hispanic children getting slaughtered at a school in Texas -- on top of war raging on in Ukraine and the fact that our democracy is crumbling before our eyes -- I think it's safe to say real life has become unbearably depressing. So if you haven't already, stop what you're doing and watch "Heartstopper." It's just what the doctor ordered. xo
P.S. Chairlift was my SOTD in December 2008 before I was even doing a Song of the Day!

Song of the Day: 'Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me' by Eurythmics
I'd forgotten about this Smiths cover that was included as a bonus track on the "We Too Are One" reissue in 2005. until I went on a Hall of Fame bender last week. It's hard to imagine someone as lovely as Annie Lennox would want to have anything to do with Morrissey anymore. But what's done is done, and this is done pretty nicely.
