Sade is a low key MVP for me this year in music listening. I know the Robert Glasper version of this song but didn’t know it was a cover but love the original version.

First off, Lianne La Havas’ cover is also one of my favorites ever
Some standouts (songs that I previously thought were too good to be touched until I heard these):
The Fool on the Hill - Sergio Mendes & Brasil ‘66 (The Beatles)
I Go To Sleep - Anika (Ray Davies/The Kinks)
Tempted - Erykah Badu/James Poyser (Squeeze)
Hybrid Moments - Helvetia (Misfits)
Perfect - MJ Lendermen/Wednesday (Smashing Pumpkins)

Just because I see a window to get across the street doesn’t mean you don’t have to look both ways. I’ve been on the other side of that though…

I met Erin (@RIOTGRRRL) and Jake (@SLOWDAZZLE) last year after I started using PI.FYI—we organized a meetup before a Jonathan Richman show and immediately clicked over our shared taste in music and similar sensibilities. We started hanging out a lot and had some great times together. I’ve also gotten to know many of their friends, who are all really cool. Erin and Jake started dating a couple of months after the three of us became friends, but our group chat still pops off. Their friendship has meant a lot to me, especially since moving to NYC in 2023, and I really appreciate having them in my life.
