New National Anthem
I had a moment today. I put the Bruins game on the radio just in time to hear the national anthem. Given the circumstances of the day it made me feel sick. I thought I was going to vomit. National anthem, my ass. What nation would that be? The fascist states of america? That nation? Fuck that. I don’t live in the US anymore (there is no US anymore), I live in Massachusetts.
So what should we use for a new Massachusetts national anthem? The obvious choice is probably “Must Have Got Lost” by the J Geils Band. That feels a little too obvious. If we wanted to go with an instrumental song I would suggest “Foreplay” by Boston. Again, probably not the best choice.
Assuming the other five New England States join in my little Massachusetts Independence crusade and we create the United States of New England, I would go with this one…

“New England” by Tanya Donelly. That would be pretty much perfect.

"HEART OF GOLD" -- Mastodon Post
Tanya Donelly - Heart Of Gold
from Cinnamon Girl - Women Artists Cover Neil Young for Charity by Various Artists
https://americanlaundromatrecords.bandcamp.com/track/heart-of-gold
YouTube suggested "Heart of Gold" by Tanya Donelly. It is the lead-off track for the various artists tribute album, "Cinnamon Girl: Women Artists Cover Neil Young for Charity" (2008). So, here we are sixteen years after the album's release and Donelly is having something of a current streaming service hit with her contribution. The Web works in many mysterious ways. My suggestion is to listen to "Heart of Gold" and then look through the "Cinnamon Girl" tracklist. I liked a lot of tracks, such as Donelly's "Heart of Gold," "Comes a Time" by Kate York, "Down by the River" by Jill Sobule With John Doe, "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere" by Carmen Townsend, "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" by Amilia K. Spicer, and "Walk On" by Heidi Gluck (Juliana Hatfield's bandmate in Some Girls), while friends generally gravitated toward "Like a Hurricane" by Kristin Hersh. A popular music fan can hardly go wrong with the "Cinnamon Girl" collection.

The only artists I’m familiar with on this tribute album are #TanyaDonelly and #TheWeddingPresent but that’s perfectly fine, because this isn’t about any specific contributors, it’s all about POURING OUT LOVE for #RobertSmith and #TheCure !
Or at least, that’s what it means for me!

Tanya Donelly (Belly) and Bill Janovitz (Buffalo Tom) cover The Kinks’ “Better Things”
This whole album is fantastic and so comforting and validating!
I’d urge you to go for it!

Last two for this week's #MusicWomenWednesday. These might take you back.

Belly - Feed the Tree (1993)

I'm like, unreasonably obsessed with both of these songs
I forgot that #TanyaDonelly and the Parkington Sisters covered a late-period #SplitEnz deep cut "Devil You Know" - an unusual choice, but an ineresting take on it. https://open.spotify.com/track/5muw3805aacrMcmE8d2GjS?si=43d4f68f1a56446f

My record collection: #102: Tanya Donelly - Swan Song Series
Not that I’d consider Tanya Donelly noise but this is possibly the release in this series with the largest signal:noise ratio. It’s a triple album with 31 tracks on, and is here because just one of those tracks - 3’57”...
