I've not had a great day, but Song 2 came on the radio, and suddenly I was back at a festival jumping up and down like a loon. Then another song that I've not heard before, but looked it up and it was Walk the Moon with work this body (I think) which also had Me dancing somewhat energetically.

I feel a million times better. I'm quite fat, and in a bit of a shitty time in life, struggling in lockdown with 2 small children on my own etc.

So please, give me your suggestions, it's good to dance, for mind and body. The dc thought it was hilarious. And joined in.

Smallpools - Dreaming

Definitely worth listening even though I'm aware that it's not a popular band. There was a YouTube video of someone prancing around to it while vacuuming a few years ago, which is incidentally when I listen to it.
