I was listening to Stan Rogers this afternoon and decided I wanted something more cheerful, so I told Spotify to play one of Laura Nyro's upbeat songs. I listened to two or three lines of "Stoned Soul Picnic" and started crying, hard. I'm fairly sure that's because I connect Laura Nyro with Velma (![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
roadnotes), but I wasn't expecting that reaction, several years after she died.
I turned the music off, made a cup of tea, and switched to They Might Be Giants, starting with their cover of "Istanbul Not Constantinople," which was fine.
