Live Music in Cuba #MusicMonday
I just returned from Cuba. My girlfriend, Darcy and I, have been going to the same resort in Varadero for the past three years. This time, we stayed two weeks instead of one. We’ve been complaining about the cold ever since coming home, but no one is feeling sorry for us! Except for a couple...Continue reading Live Music in Cuba #MusicMonday

If the World was Ending #MusicMonday
JP Saxe is a native Torontonian who now lives in L.A. He wrote this song with Julia Michaels, an American singer/songwriter. “If the World was Ending” contains more storytelling than most ballads. It’s not really a love song. The construction is unusual, as is the way it’s sung. Still, it makes us think: Who would...Continue reading If the World was Ending #MusicMonday

Havana #MusicMonday #Cuba
If everything is as it should be, I’m still in Cuba as you’re reading this, so why not listen to this song called “Havana” by Camila Cabello. She was born in Havana but now lives in Miami, Florida. No doubt, I’ll be sitting in some Havana bar listening to live music at some point, but...Continue reading Havana #MusicMonday #Cuba

Something About You #MusicMonday
Elderbrook, a British musician and songwriter, collaborated with Rudimental, a Brit drum and bass band for this tune. “Something About You” stars actor Michael Socha and focuses on the importance of men’s mental health. It challenges the idea of toxic masculinity—the cultural norms associated with harm to society and to men themselves. The video highlights...Continue reading Something About You #MusicMonday

Year of the Rat #ChineseNewYear
My best wishes to all those who celebrate Chinese New Year, which starts today according to the lunar calendar. It’s an occasion for families to get together and welcome the first of the Chinese zodiac’s signs, the RAT. I find the Chinese zodiac interesting, but I don’t take it too seriously. It’s fun to have...Continue reading Year of the Rat #ChineseNewYear

I Decided #MusicMonday
Solange is the younger sister of Beyoncé, and she wrote this song with Pharrell Williams of “Happy” fame. You remember that great song, I walked the runway to it back in 2014 for the Dare to Wear Love Gala. “I Decided” is upbeat, catchy, and danceable. It also has a retro sixties feel à la...Continue reading I Decided #MusicMonday

Foundations #MusicMonday
Jasmine Thompson lends her sweet voice to Kolidespcopes’ “Foundations.” This song is happy and catchy even if my blog is not. No worries, it’s not all doom and gloom. For some years now, my physical and metaphorical foundations have been crumbling. It happens to all of us. Erosion is natural. If we are talking...Continue reading Foundations #MusicMonday
