​Oblivious Nerd Girl

Same Drugs & Pugs

12/19/2016

This is one of my favorite songs of Coloring Book. I love the Peter Pan reference. And I think it's a Hook reference which makes this song hit me a bit harder because Hook, yes Hook, has a special place in my memories.

It's not that I love the movie. Like many of you I thought it was blah. But when Moms had her stroke and she was in the hospital we got a late night call about her status. I remember rushing with dad from our house to the hospital. It was really late. Like maybe 1 or 2 in the morning. Dad went straight in to Mom's room to talk to the doctors. I hung out in the waiting room with the tv. The same waiting room I had spent many hours with when my Lola was on that floor years before.

What was on the tv?  Hook.

I paid attention. I teared up when Robin Williams' Peter Pan brought back marbles for Toodles. When Dame Maggie Smith uttered the word "Boy" I was mesmerized. For a few hours I forgot how my world had drastically changed. 

So yes, I love this song. I appreciate it tremendously. Chance the Rapper was a bright spot in 2016. Also I did not realize how much he looked like a pug. Like if I made a calendar of adorable dogs as rappers, I would use a pug for Chance. It would make sense. And yes I've provided pictures of adorable pugs that I have found through Google for reference.
