there are so many versions of āstrangers in the nightā and for good reason too. itās a classic old love song. this is my favorite rendition of it, done by thee midniters.
thee midniters were a band that came out of east L.A. in the 60s when the chicano movement was picking up pace. they were beloved by chicanos in los angeles in that time for showing brown pride in a time that they were still heavily discriminated against and they even have a song called āchicano powerā thatās filled with so much powerful energy, i highly recommend.
iāve been humming this song and singing it SO much today. i post so many of my earworms on here but thatās what this app is for! they have a bunch of other classic songs so if youāre into oldies/soul you should definitely check them out!

iāve been humming this song and thinking about it all day for some reason. itās about her traveling the world, going to all these different countries, but still missing home. while joni isnāt a native californian (sheās canadian) i hear her love and longing for it in this song. her voice is just so delicate yet so powerful at the same and when she hits those runs with the high notes it tickles my brain. i donāt know how she does it man. the lyrics are great as well too, one of the best songwriters to ever live.
this song makes me love my home even more than i already do. even when i lived in texas for a few years i would wish a tornado would come and tear down the trailer park i lived in during tornado season in the summer, literally kneeling on the ground inside of the neighborhood shelter with my palms together, eyes closed, praying to god to let mother nature do its thing so i could go back home to california.
obviously, joni and i were in 2 very different situationsā¦

this movie is amazing. i love how they kept the original dialogue of the play and used it in the movies but still modernized the setting and characters. a lot of movies make romeo and juliet bland and boring but this one is vibrant, with fun wardrobes, religious iconography everywhere, and this movie feels so saturated. leonardo dicaprio is charming as always in this movie and he plays an amazing romeo to pair with precious juliet. i absolutely love the person who plays mercutio, they did an AMAZING job.
the problem with all the other romeo and juliet movies is that they always take themselves too seriously but you have to remember, this was meant for stage theatre and shakespeare was a playwright who loved to be humorous. all of that gets lost in every single other romeo and juliet movie except this one. itās so fun, i highly recommend.
CAUTION: tears might be shed.
