As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

Two from The Post

Ruth Marcus demolishes the “but what about her emails” defense:

Alexandra Petri, on the approach of the non-Trump contenders for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination:

Donald Trump has never done anything wrong, ever, in his life, except possibly being too luminously perfect, and too right? So right that maybe, possibly, the American people’s eyes are growing weary of such brightness, and they might seek a less brilliant successor? No, I dare not say it. They are surely not tired of him. And I am the least tired of all! I’m glad he’s dominating the news cycle! I’m clapping and smiling! I love him and I love how things are going!

 

Anyway, please vote for me instead of him as president! Thanks!
