Music Monday

This meme was created by Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek. You pick a song that you really like and share it on Monday.
Last week’s share:
Amos Lee and Daryl Hall “Windows are Rolled Down”
This week’s share:
Khalid
“Better”
Did you guys watch Richard Branson and his crew fly Unity into space yesterday? Was it ever amazing! To watch history in the making is really something. We sat in front of the TV screen for the entire live stream and celebration. I don’t think I’ll ever forget it…so inspiring.
As a live music guest they had Khalid perform a few songs, including his new song “New Normal”. My plan was to share that live show, but the sound quality wasn’t so great. One of the issues is that I’m not a huge live music fan unless I’m there. That’s just me. He did sing one of my favorite songs titled “Better”. Here’s the original video. Hope you enjoy it too.
Lyrics:
I love to see you shine in the night like the diamond you are
(I love to see you shine in the night like the diamond you are)
I’m good on this side, it’s alright, just hold me in the dark
(I’m good on this side, it’s alright, just hold me in the dark)
No one’s got to know what we do, hit me up when you’re bored
(No one’s got to know what we do, hit me up when you’re bored)
‘Cause I live down the street
So hit me when you need and it’s yours
All I hear is…
Nothing feels better than this
Nothing feels better
Nothing feels better than this
Nothing feels better, ooh now
We don’t gotta hide
This is what you like, gotta admit
Nothing feels better than this
You say we’re just friends, but I swear when nobody’s around
(You say we’re just friends, but I swear when nobody’s around)
I keep my hand around your neck, we connect, are you feelin’ it now?
(I keep my hand around your neck, we connect, are you feelin’ it now?)
‘Cause I am
I get so high that I ignite, I swear to God, feel my feet leave the ground
(I get so high that I ignite, I swear to God, feel my feet leave the ground)
Ooh, yeah
Your back against the wall, this is what you been talkin’ about
In my ears
Nothing feels better than this
Nothing feels better
Nothing feels better than this
Nothing feels better, ooh now
We don’t gotta hide
This is what you like, gotta admit
Nothing feels better than this
You know that if I left
I’d take you back
When you say it, you say it like that, oh yeah
You know that if I left
I’d take you back
When you say it, you say it like
Nothing feels better than this
Nothing feels better
Nothing feels better than this
(Nothing feels better) ooh now, now
We don’t gotta hide
(This is what you like, gotta admit)
Nothing feels better than this
(Better than this)
Nothing feels better than this
From the album: Free Spirit

Nice mellow and upbeat way to start Monday ❤️. My newest song love is for Ed Sheeran’s Bad Habits – so beautiful and I love the acoustic guitar.

That was so awesome about Branson! I didn’t see the entire live stream, but enough to be thoroughly jazzed about it. History was made!!!
And good choice on the music vid. I always enjoy Khalid.

Isn’t it amazing, Mae? Gosh, it’s just hard to believe how far we’ve come in such a short time. It seems long, but it really isn’t. Thank you 😉

We missed Unity’s launch, so my son will be happy to hear that we can look it up to watch!
How is your daughter feeling this week, Mischenko?

It streamed on multiple channels, and I wonder how it you could find some with better connection. The one we watched had some live issues.
Thanks so much for asking. She’s doing much better this week, but she’s still fatigued with sore throat and smell and taste loss. Hoping it’s on the way out. It never did seem to move on to her lungs, and I don’t think it will now. I’m so grateful for that. 🧡

I found a link through NASA on YouTube. I’m thankful you mentioned it, otherwise who knows if we would have heard about it. I’m not paying much attention to the news these days, if I can help it.
I’m so glad to hear your daughter is on the mend, that’s grand. 🥰

I didn’t watch the live stream, but read about the launch. How exciting! This is a nice song to chill to.

It was so exciting, Teri, and nothing like what I expected. Little did I know that they only stayed in space for a few minutes and then just turned right down for reentry. What an experience!

I enjoyed watching history made with the launch into space. Seemed so refined and at ease to do. Amazing!
The video is really different. He’s very casual. Nice share Jen! 🎵

Thanks! Me too. It was a fun experience. I can’t even imagine what it was like for them. 😀

I like the lyrics to this song, Jen. I had a hard time understanding him, he sounds like he has a mouthful of marbles to me. I tell my kids the same thing, so it might be my hearing. He is definitely laid back.

LOL. I know exactly what you mean. Usually, I just look up the lyrics to figure it out. 😆 Thanks for checking it out, Carla.
