Monday's Song : Paul Weller - More

A virus, thankfully not covid-19, made me think that we don't need to look for more and more in life. Health is enough.

Have a nice week everyone. Say safe and healthy!!

With this song, Paul Weller takes a swipe at materialism.

"The more we get, the more we lose

When all is "more", it's more we choose

There's always something else in store

That keeps me running down that road, keeps me running

To an unknown place I think is more"

Weller explained to Mojo magazine that his warning against acquisitiveness is aimed not just at societies generally. "More stuff doesn't make people happy," he noted. "Sadly it's kind of a comment on me and my family and all. We lead a very privileged, very lucky lifestyle and it doesn't always make the people around me happy."
