N.E.R.D – She Wants To Move

If you don’t already know, I am a big fan of Lego and recently finished watching Piece by Piece, the Lego biopic of Pharell Williams. This triggered my memory of this song from him. It was also surprising from the film the amount of tunes he produced as part of the Neptunes. Most of them […]

All Saints – Pure Shores

Another Friday and last night I watched the replay of Taskmaster new year’s special and one of the contestants was Melanie Blatt from All Saints. This reminded me of one of my favourite track from the band. So let’s take a trip down memory lane and talk about one of the most iconic girl groups […]

American Authors – Best Day of My Life

I was reflecting a lot in recent days in 2025 of what I have achieved in 2024 and what to look forward to. I realised I achieved quite a bit personally in 2024. Personally, I made it to the Taj Mahal, attended Oktoberfest and also AWS Re-Invent. These were mainly driven by work. As a […]

Ai Pia Cia E Ya (Strive To Win) – Hokkien Song

Unbelievable how fast time flies when you are having fun. It has been a jam packed two weeks in Taiwan and our final weekend. I couldn’t think of a more fitting track than this as I was able to practise my Hokkien dialect during this trip. I speak Hokkien way better than Mandarin. I can […]

Dean Martin – Baby, It’s Cold Outside

I just attended my work’s Christmas party and can confirm I have been bitten by the holiday bug! This song came into my head which is fitting for a Friday evening post. Dean Martin, born Dino Paul Crocetti on June 7, 1917, in Steubenville, Ohio, was a legendary American entertainer who left an indelible mark […]

Creedence Clearwater Revival – Have You Ever Seen The Rain

I am at the moment stuck at Schipol Airport in Amsterdam due to an on going storm causing strong winds. In between with catching up on work and trying to kill time, I decided to post song about weather. This song is from Creedence Clearwater Revival, commonly known as CCR, was an iconic American rock […]

The O’Jays – For The Love Of Money

It’s Black Friday and there are a few lego sets that I refrained from buying as I still have loads to sort out. As the sale have started online earlier, I have bought several codes and templates which I will use in the upcoming weeks. And lastly, Donald Trump will be making his return to […]

Disturbed – The Sound Of Silence

This weekend, the house will return to normal and it was something I crave in recent days. Hopefully, it is not early signs of derpression but this it reminded me of this song. It came back to my playlist in recent years as my kids heard it from the movie Trolls. Disturbed, a hard-hitting heavy […]

All 4 One – I Swear

My selection for today is based on my recent visit to Alexandre Dumas’s mansion based on the famous phrase All For One and One For All by the three musketeers. All-4-One is an American R&B and pop group that gained fame in the 1990s with their romantic ballads and smooth harmonies. Known for their soulful […]
