13.02.2026 04:33 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0A low bar indeed, but I do agree. I am somewhat comforted by the fact that Feelings was a HUGELY popular song at the time we were buying records, so I guess we were not alone.

Thanks; I tried that too but it wouldn’t use my Google Chrome platform and insisted I use Safari and I haven’t figured that out yet.
