I'm still super into *I Love My Computer* by Ninajirachi. Brendon Bigley [wrote a great review of it](https://wavelengths.online/posts/a-good-album-i-love-my-computer-by-ninajirachi) on Wavelengths.
I chatted with my sister about music a bit and we reminisced about Paramore — we were huge fans as teens as soon as *All We Know Is Falling...* dropped. For some nostalgia, I listened through to the album again and did a little song-by-song write up.
I chatted with my sister about music a bit and we reminisced about Paramore — we were huge fans as teens as soon as *All We Know Is Falling...* dropped. For some nostalgia, I went to listen through to the album again and do a little song-by-song write up, but only got through a few tracks. Maybe I'll pick it up on my next week notes.
1. **All We Know** - Fine; a heavy track (by Paramore standards) that sets the tone for the album but is otherwise not super notable
2. **Pressure** - iconic and excellent still. If I was trying to expose someone to the early pop-punk/emo scene, this is one of the first tracks I'd play them. Special shoutout to the version of the song that was on *The Sims*.
3. **Emergency** - I also still really like this song. Josh Farro is an ass but the guitar on this song smashes.
4. **Brighter** - I recall being a diehard for this song as a teen; today, I find it a little fatiguing to listen to. That might be in the mix, and I really like the outro still, but it's a notable downturn after the Pressure-Emergency one-two.
5. **Here We Go Again** - This one feels like a bit of a recall of the band's funk roots. I still really love this song. I remember being a fan of an acoustic live performance someone had put on YouTube. Farro really did have an ear for a catchy guitar hook.

As part of trying to get back into listening to podcasts, too, here are the episodes I listened to this week:
* Cyberpunk 2077 from BGM Gems - a little challenging to listen to because I've never played Cyberpunk nor listened to the soundtrack, but I really appreciate the conversations, and I think highlighting music in games and using it as a lens to discuss them is a rad concept for a show. Excited to hear more!
