My favorite song this year. Can’t recommend his band, Geese, enough. Their new album this year is a classic.
Surprised Geese and Goose don't tour together...
Broken YouTube LinkMerry Christmas/Solstice/Hanukah/Kwanza/whatever you celebrate, Stoners.
A slightly different take on an old favorite.

Pink Floyd Lyrics
"Comfortably Numb"
Hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home?
Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again
Relax
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?
There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb
I have become comfortably numb
O.K.
Just a little pin prick
There'll be no more ah!
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on, it's time to go
There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb

Got pretty high (is it micro dosing if you take 2? Asking for a friend.) Mark Farina Mushroom Jazz at Walter's Where?House Phoenix...
BTW. When posting ITT, isn't it OK to be high on life? This has become my defacto place to drop some songs/vids when going down rabbit holes hoping I'll emerge on the other side in the morning.
Sampling? Or borrowing a melody?

"The Way" peaked at number one on the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart in April 1998 and remained there for seven weeks. It also reached number one in Canada on the week of June 15, 1998, and topped the RPM Alternative 30 chart for four weeks. Worldwide, the song peaked at number seven in Sweden and entered the top 20 in Australia, Iceland, and Norway. The song was voted by VH1 as one of its "100 Greatest Songs of the '90s", ranking it at number 94.[5]
Fastball frontman Tony Scalzo came up with the idea for the song after reading articles that described the June 1997 disappearance of an elderly married couple, Lela and Raymond Howard from Salado, Texas,[6] who left home to attend the Pioneer Day festival at nearby Temple, Texas, despite Lela's Alzheimer's disease and Raymond recently recovering from brain surgery. They were discovered two weeks later, dead, at the bottom of a ravine near Hot Springs, Arkansas, hundreds of miles off their intended route.[7][8] The authorities who investigated the incident believed that Lela, who was driving the car, was trying to locate a place where she had once vacationed.[9]

I remember being in 5th grade when that album came out. The lyrics to 'The Way' seemed profound to me at that age.
dug up some old memories from the back of a drawer and made a collage
