Last week’s rando lyrics: The lyric, “Kinda get a little tangled in the middle” is from the song "Tangled”, by Headstones from the album “Flight Risk” released in October 2022. Written by Jesse Labovitz, Steve Carr, Tim White, Trent Carr & Hugh Dillon (Ed. that’s just a lot of words for “Headstones”) Produced by Hugh Dillon & Chris Osti.

Kinda really liking this album cover art… (Note: everyone survived…also there’s some pretty funny stuff in here…see: The Story Behind The Photo - Ed. - as far as I can tell from an internet search, the aircraft is still there…)
Welcome to The Regular Friday post!
Weather’s dreary, temps dropping at night - whatcha gon’ do? …Find a Canadian band that rocks the way I like - and that band is always Headstones! (Ed. despite what the boneheads at Spotify might think…losers…. Lame List Of Canadian "Rock" Bands....)
Your mileage may vary…
Some Stuff
A Song To Play…
I needed something a little more on the rockin’ side this week and Headstones never fail to deliver…
4/4 common time, a pretty rockin’ 158 BPM, Key of Bminor (lots of minor key songs lately). Capo on 2 (or just leave the capo off) to play and sing in the much easier Key of Aminor (relative minor of CMajor - that Circle of Fifths might come in handy right about now, eh?).
Lyrics
(From Genius) Link>Tangled<
Kind get a little
Tangled in the middle and it's
Getting away from me now
All the little pieces excuses and the reasons
They're getting me down
And we don't learn a thing
Take it all for granted wake up a little frantic
Like it's all some free ride
Forever complicated just can't negotiate it
Can't sleep at night
And we don't learn a thing
Sailing into something
With the baggage that we bring
Hands are on the wheel
Not sure that I feel
But I say
It's not me now
We just keep on moving
Reload and keep shooting we're just lost at sea now
We don't learn a thing
Sailing into something
With the baggage that we bring
And all I know for certain is we can't take everything
Kind get a little
Tangled in the middle and it's
Getting away from me now
All the little pieces excuses and the reasons are
Just getting me down
And we don't learn a thing

This Week’s Conversation With Mika, The Cat:
So this happened…A big grey Tom decided to enjoy the sunshine on the back deck. There was much growling from Mika, but she may have just been trying to flirt…
Mika: “I wasn’t flirting, human. I was saving you from that brute!!”
Me: “OK….Xena: Warrior Kat….”
Mika: …growls….
Cheers and keep playing!!

That singing cat WAS hilarious! Way more so than I thought would be possible! Very clever by The Kiffness to put that together!
