And then we ended it there with Little Green by Joni Mitchell off the 1971 album, Blue.

And, uh, yeah, in my previous rotations, I've shot for a little more of a, you know, wide variety of things.

But somehow just with the pastels, it felt right to just deliver three solid sort of singing, music-playing performances.
