Breana: I haven’t been listening to anything new. Instead, I’m still listening to old favorites. My first pick is Love Come Down by Evelyn “Champagne” King. I love this song, and each time I hear it, I just want to sing along….
My second pick is I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do) by Daryl Hall & John Oates. It’s one of my favorite songs by them.
Have you listened to any music by Evelyn King or Daryl Hall & John Oates? If so, what are your favorite songs?

Breana:Last week, I didn’t listen to any new music. Instead, I alternated between playlists comprised of my old favorites. One song I listened to was Wrong Club by The Ting Tings. Gosh, I still love this song a lot. It’s hard to believe that it’s already been four years since it first came out, but it is what it is….
Andrea & Adri: Hey all, it's Andrea and Adri. We just wanted to drop in to share new music we've been listening to over the past several weeks. Last week we had the opportunity to attend an En Vogue performance. We've always loved their music and didn't realize they released a new album this year. Needless to say, their new music is amazing, and we've loved their song Rocket since we saw them perform it. Now we need to purchase their album, so we can add their music to the songs we listen to on repeat. You can check out their video below:
Andrea: I was always a big fan of Bob Marley's music and recently saw his son, Ziggy Marley, perform live on The Talk. As an audience member, I received a copy of his latest album, Rebellion Rises, and instantly fell in love with his music. His music is now on my workout playlist. :-)
Comments:This is another watercolor painting I worked on only because I wanted to paint a potted plant. My original idea for it involved the tree with a blank space in the background and maybe a shadow. However, the more I sketched it, the more I liked the idea of the tree being in front of a wall with a single window. I didn’t record the process for it since I only spent about an hour on it from start to finish. I like the colors, and my favorite part is still the tree...
Title: Flatland Series: n/a Author: Edwin A. Abbott Source/Format: Borrowed from my sister; Hardcover More Details: Science Fiction Publisher/Publication Date: First published in 1884 GoodreadsAmazonBarnes & NobleBook Depository Synopsis from Goodreads...
A satiric look at another planet which gives us a fresh look at our own...
I read Flatland by Edwin A Abbott simply because my sister enjoyed it so much and told me about it. It was just as great as she said it was going to be. Flatland is a satirical look at some outdated etiquette; perception of self and others; dimensions and class systems among other subjects. And it was told from the perspective of a square forced to question everything about, well, everything. Yes, I do mean a literal square. As odd as it sounds, the narrator worked for a story like Flatland. Abbott created a truly fascinating and intricate history and society. Parts of it were funny. Other parts were serious. And some of the descriptions made it sound like personified geometry homework. Flatland was kind of a ridiculous story but also a really good one. You'd have to read it to fully understand what I mean....

Breana: I’ve been listening to more of CHVRCHES music. Never Say Die is another one of my favorite songs from their latest album.
I'm also listening to music by Dainá. Recently, she released her EP: Chapter 28. There are nine tracks including a remix of one of her earlier songs. There are gems like Yeah Yeah, 1st Lady, Shook, and remiX featuring Paigey Cakey, Tokyo Diiva, & Nya Lee. As a whole, I love the sound and vibe of the EP a lot. Now, let’s talk about that remix for a second. The original was called X (you can watch the music video HERE) which was already a great song with a catchy beat. RemiX ramps it up a notch, which is why it’s one of my favorite songs from Chapter 28. You can find the songs on Dainá's channel: HERE
