The good part of tonight

sorcyressWhen it was time to bike home from dance, my brain presented me with the demand of "Coming Home", by Falco, as what it wanted to listen to. Okay, sure, that's a passionate-yet-tragic one, seems to match mood alright, fine.
And it did match mood! It was good and correct and a little wistful but like powerfully so. And then YouTube went ahead and spun over to a Falco song I don't actually know: The Sound of Music.
Well.
Well.
Like. It's a bop. It's a delight. It's rock and roll, it's Der Kommissar1 at his best. And it took anything from the brain that wasn't working out and presented with a very simple set of demands: I listen to baller dance music from the eighties and nineties, and in exchange my brain would provide me with serotonin. The good stuff.
So from there we did Rock Me Amadeus and Shake and Egoist and closed with Jeanny. And it was great! It was a really marvelous bike ride! I was dancing and singing along and bouncing and it was so fun!
It is nice that I have access to joy, even when some parts of my world are simply not allowing it.

MOOP!
1: you know, Falco. Der Kommissar! Falco!!!! (yes, I am quoting, no I'm not even sure what I'm quoting beyond "my mother" but I think it's an interview thing he did at some point, self-identifying thusly.)
