25TH ANNIVERSARY

Eels - Daisies Of The Galaxy (2000)
Favourite Track: I Like Birds

'Daisies of the Galaxy', which has just turned 25, is my favourite of their records, with its bright, upbeat hooks and more positive outlook than its predecessors.

Good timezone fediverse,
Today's song is Earth to Dora by EELS

Eels is an American rock band formed 1991 in LA by singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mark Oliver Everett, known by the stage name E. Band members have changed over the years, both in the studio and on stage, making Everett the only official member for most of the band's work. Eels' music is often filled with themes of family, death, and unrequited love.

Did you know multiple prominent people from #Ancient #Rome had #pet #eels?

Initially raised for food, many well-off Romans fell in love with Muraenidae, a type of eel.

They were so beloved, that Cicero-praised orator Lucius Licinius Crassus held a funeral for his #fish.

Another orator, Quintus Hortensius, would be labelled a "Piscinarius" (fish fancier) by Cicero, for his deep #love for an eel.

Antonia, daughter of Mark Antony, adorned her favourite eel with earrings.

Things the grandchildren should know

I go to bed real early
Everybody thinks it's strange
I get up early in the morning
No matter how disappointed i was
With the day before
It feels new

I don't leave the house much
I don't like being around people
Makes me nervous and weird
I don't like going to shows either
It's better for me to stay home
Some might think it means i hate people
But that's not quite right

I do some stupid things
But my heart's in the right place
And this i know
