Lyrics of the day - 8 December 2025
1 "You were born, and so you're free, so happy birthday" (Born, Never Asked - Laurie Anderson - 1982)
2 "Where do I go? Who do I follow?" (Notes on How to Trust - GGGOLDDD - 2022)
3 "And since we chose the path, I'll face it" (Kiss and say goodbye - XLOV - 2025)
Doing a temporary data-entry project at my job and wow it is hard to fill out a form correctly for some people!
Granted, the survey design is also awful, but why did I just see *both* 'yes' and 'no' options checked for the 5th time?
'Does your company have a WFH compensation?'
✅ Yes
✅ No
😭🤔🤔
Maybe this is the asexual in me speaking but xlov's actual sexuality and gender identity is probably the least interesting thing about them! I'm much more interested in the ideas they are presenting and the creative vision, which are boundary breaking and queer regardless of their personal identity

I'm making a recipe that calls for 4 eggs but I only have two, and it includes carrots but I'll be using beets. Beside that it does not ask for any goats cheese but I'll use the entire package anyway.
In other words: reason 101 why I would fail at the Great British Bake Off
ugh water in my sleeve :(

And now... Presenting the host entry for #eurosky 11...
Representing 🇨🇭 Switzerland, it's Steiner & Madlaina with their song "Denk was Du willst"!
It's on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRRn...
On Spotify: open.spotify.com/track/3U6a78...
And we have lyrics! www.songtexte.com/songtext/ste...
Because the singer actually won that other contest! But it is too nice not to share! In the hypothetical NF this would have been the opening act!
It's Nemo with "365"!

The host entry for #Eurosky 11 has been selected!
I considered doing a national final, because I had a hard time choosing, but in the end I left it too close to the deadline for a proper NF.
But before we announce the competing song it's time for an honourable mention: a song that's ineligible >
Don't tell the sugar police but I just had my second ice cream of the day (30° C weather does that to a person) and it was amazing too

Additional benefits of visiting my parents:
✅ Forest
✅ Good ice cream (salted caramel and yogurt amarena cherry 😋)
If you liked Argent Vif in #eurosky 10, looked them up on Spotify, and were sad they only have one song, same!
But last year they participated (got 2nd!) in some kind of 'Battle of the Bands' and their performance is on YouTube, with two more songs. Check it out!

Totally didn't expect this, thank you so much to everyone who voted for Switzerland!
I discovered the song and the band a week before the edition started and knew immediately I wanted to send it, and I'm so glad I did and other people love it as much as I do ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Oh! Just in time to actually promote the Swiss song before voting opens!
After songs in French and English, this time we'll have another national language of Switzerland: Italian!
It's Argent Vif with their song 'Eco' 🇨🇭 🇮🇹 🇨🇭
open.spotify.com/track/4mumcd...
A great winner, congrats Mario!
I can't say I'm surprised at getting second to last, I knew I picked a risky song and I don't regret it.
But I am very surprised at France being last, absolutely undeserved in my opinion :(
And for next year, Switzerland🇨🇭!
Because Spotify is my main way of listening to music I had not yet seen the video of my #EuroSky 9 submission, but I like it!
It's a bit cryptic but that leaves it nicely open to interpretation :)
Go Ireland🇮🇪!
Also, is this the first purely instrumental track participating?

20:50 - Getting started on doing those dishes

Thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed it, and others too bc this is my best result so far in Eurosky :)
Next edition, keep an eye out for Ireland ;)

I've always liked 'The cultural Borders of Songs' a lot, and I've been hoping quietly that it will be updated with new data again!

Since I'm moving out soon, there was a bit of a theme with my Sinterkerst presents. I am now the proud owner of:
- A fire extinguisher suitable for grease fires
- A hand screwdriver with 10 different screw bits
- A kitchen scale
- A wooden cutting board
- A spatula
