What’s in your music playlist?

Music has always been a reliever of sorts– hyper accenting one’s tone or emotion in the best and worst of times.

The choices we have in the music we listen to can actually tell where we are at the moment–or where we are headed for.

Is it gonna be forward to a new normal kind of music? Or is it gonna be a music throwback that spans a timeline for originals, of covers or of classics?

In our local social media feeds, this writer has come to terms with the fact that popularity outsells the indie.

But there can be an exception.

Harking this one not for promotional sake but for pure music fan reasons– it’s nice to go back and listen to the songs we used to hear in our younger years. Just like the songs of the MOFFATs.

I chanced upon their cover in Facebook, with a music profile and there they showed unfainting sound for the kind of music they are most best at–mellow and easy listening.

But it was their rendition of “Lean on Me”, which they recorded on the streets, which actually reverberated a significance. The song mirrored a time of need for the people locally, who managed to enjoy the songs and stay happy in their quiet corner.

Music can uplift a weary wanderer with the hungry melancholy for the old normal.

It is kind of mushy and sort of a sweet recall to listen to the MOFFATS, as if to remind us back home that it doesn’t matter, when you’ve got each other, or at least, you know how to stay happy.

In our yearn to succumb to the gray pantone and not to the bright yellow call for liberation from a threatening virus, the MOFFATS extended hope and music to remember.

WHEN THE CHOICE BETWEEN GOING FOR THE HUES OF GRAY AND YELLOW puts us to a stall, it is always nice to settle for yellow.
