Music Prompt? Music Thingy!
At work a few weeks ago, I was using that Spotify DJ thing, the AI tool that slightly bugs me on principle, but not enough for me to boycott it. (You know the one?) Anyway, I was jamming out to songs I was familiar with, a few new ones, and then all of a sudden, I was stopped in my tracks.
Mackenzie DavisPublished 4 days ago in BeatFrankie's Song of the Week: Espresso - Sabrina Carpenter
A little something different from me while I deal with the strain of writers block. I thought I'd do a song of the week, because I have been surely annoying my neighbours and my friends with this absolute musical GEM. I am of course talking about Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter.

Victim or Survivor
TW: Mention of self harm and suicide attempts I'll preface this article with I have never listened to any other songs by Citizen Soldier. I had never heard of them until I found out from an Icon for Hire stream where they told fans about an "upcoming collab," being with Citizen Soldier. As soon as I saw that it was on Spotify, I listened to it over and over... And over because of the lyrics.

To go along with the March Madness Theme, I am closing out the month with 10 of my favorite songs about MADNESS! NOTE: This was rejected for word count, so I am amending the story to add some selected song lyrics for each selection.
𝐑𝐌 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐭𝐨𝐧Published 2 months ago in Beat Hyperfixation Songs (and why they are a less expensive option than Pickleball)
First, let's get this out of the way! It's been a few months since I have published anything on Vocal. I've been lurking here reading and commenting but not writing anything and also not entering any of the challenges, not even the non Vocal+ one that I wouldn't have to pay to enter. Why not? Why wouldn't I bother coming up with something for such a cool challenge?
Donna ReneePublished 2 months ago in BeatPlaylist: Politics
Jen Dixon – The Sound Political is personal. The rumbling scandal around the Teesside freeport might seem arcane, but the whiff of dodgy deals seeps into people’s lives. And, when those people are gifted songwriters, it sparks the creative process. Jen Dixon’s work has tended to be a response to her own relationships and feelings, but the more she read about the freeport in the likes of Private Eye, the more she was inspired to write.
Andy PottsPublished 2 months ago in BeatMusic Is The Drug
Music has always been one of the greatest influences in my life. Each genre holds a special place, certain artists elicit strong emotions, specific songs conjure nostalgic memories.

First, I want to say that when I started, I had no idea how many I would go to and that it would become my new hobby or maybe addiction.

What I Hate About The Shohei Ohtani Scandal
It doesn't seem like it was even that long ago that Ippei Mizuhara, Shohei Ohtani's interpreter was being investigated by federal authorities for his alleged theft of seventeen million from the Japanese sensation's bank account. It just baffles me that despite the investigation that concluded Shohei's innocence, there are still those who insist that somehow he was involved, speculating that MLB and investigators were trying to conspire so he wouldn't be indicted.

So sit back and listen and imagine a pony named Wildfire, running from spiders and snakes, dancing with a crocodile, hearing a little red rooster, seeing pigs fly, and being chased by a psycho chicken as you wander through this wonderland like Alice.

Jasmine AguilarPublished 3 days ago in BeatPlaylist: More than a stone's throw
Vice Killer – The Dark Side of the Railway Forty years after the Miners’ Strike, the scars are still keenly felt in northern England. Although the members of this County Durham band wasn’t even born back then, the atmosphere of the former coal-mining communities around their native Peterlee pervades their “Keep on Fighting On” EP. The title track is the most explicitly political cut, an angry swipe at Thatcherite politics that taps into a deep seam of resentment over a government that stripped communities of work and identity while bringing nothing in return.
