Sometimes everyone needs  an up. So \u201cSunny\u201d, to me, is that disposition, you need a Sunny  disposition to get away from whatever, just as I said before, \u201camuse  me\u201d, \u201cmake me forget what I just saw man\u201d, \u201cI don\u2019t wanna know, I know I  have to know, but I don\u2019t know how to deal with it right now. I will  deal with it, I\u2019m not running away from this.&nbsp; I just need a break.<br> <br> So this was the idea behind \u201cSunny\u201d \u2013 (it) was (to) give me a  brighter idea so that my emotions will not be as disturbed as they are. I  need a calmer feeling so that I can balance myself and adjust and then  continue forward, onward.\u201d <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/bloom-on-the-walk.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2427\" width=\"1182\" height=\"1182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/bloom-on-the-walk.jpg 680w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/bloom-on-the-walk-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/bloom-on-the-walk-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/bloom-on-the-walk-624x624.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1182px) 100vw, 1182px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-02-32-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2433\" width=\"1180\" height=\"1035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-02-32-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music.png 787w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-02-32-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-300x263.png 300w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-02-32-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-768x673.png 768w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-02-32-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-624x547.png 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1180px) 100vw, 1180px\" \/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livexlive.com\/album\/frankie-valli\/timeless?utm_campaign=slacker-redirect\">https:\/\/www.livexlive.com\/album\/frankie-valli\/timeless?utm_campaign=slacker-redirect<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-01-55-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-1-1024x345.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2434\" width=\"1301\" height=\"437\" srcset=\"https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-01-55-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-1-1024x345.png 1024w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-01-55-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-1-300x101.png 300w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-01-55-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-1-768x259.png 768w, https:\/\/joeviglione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screenshot-2021-06-30-at-15-01-55-Timeless-by-Frankie-Valli-LiveXLive-Premium-Live-Music-1-624x210.png 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1301px) 100vw, 1301px\" \/><figcaption>AllMusic link to the original here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/timeless-mw0001880412\">https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/timeless-mw0001880412<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"> She Cracked by #ModernLovers #JonathanRichman  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p> <strong>She Cracked by #ModernLovers #JonathanRichman <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/song\/she-cracked-mt0002063356\">https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/song\/she-cracked-mt0002063356<\/a> Song Review by Joe ViglioneOne of the six John Cale produced &#8220;demos&#8221; from the combination of tapes which are the first Modern Lovers album, &#8220;She Cracked&#8221; is the stuff Velvet Underground fans&#8217;dreams are made of <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lou Spinnazola just played the &#8220;Last Days of May&#8221; by Blue Oyster Cult on the Spin Room and I cannot believe that a month has flown by.
