EARLY ONSET CANADIAN DEMENTIA
a week ago
I'm learning more about the Canadian/ Québécois 80s which is so funny because it's passingly similar enough to my American experience to feel familiar without being actually recognizable.
Being here feels like gentle senility, like Are you my son? I feel like I know you, you seem nice, have we met? You remind me of my son, he'd like you.
e.g. rock from 1984 (it's in french)
and this gem is from 1982, but it sounds like modern "retro" from a year ago - like, "What The Kids Think the 80s Sounded Like, More Than The Actual 80s". I'd never heard of them, and I love this:

We got some good but-largely-unknown stuff from across the decades out here. Here, have a few local songs I like from across time and space (but mostly the late 2000's to early 2010's, since that's when I was in my "this music will stay with me forever" phase). No real rhyme or reason to it, just songs I enjoy and think you might too!
Imagine a barbershop quartet, but it's fur trappers in a log cabin instead
A great song from the pretty significant prog rock scene we had back in the 70s
Much more recent and pop, this one's from a now unfortunately deceased artist and has always stuck with me
A classic from my second-favorite band from my teenage years
Arguably the best song from my favorite band from my teenage years - gives me goosebumps to this day
This one I only recently discovered and I've been listening to it on loop for days
I like pretty much everything Karkwa did, with some other favs being La Marche, La Piqûre and La Façade (what's up with all the "La's"?)
After Karkwa disbanded, lead singer Louis-Jean moved on to a solo career and, AFAIK, remains active to this day! He generally sounds lighter than Karkwa did (check out "Tout le monde en même temps" for an example), but sometimes harkens back to his Karkwa day ("Transistors").

Unable to think of the right word to describe something even though the word is relatively simple.
I worry sometimes when these things happen to me @.@
