Stunning pictures, as always! I love both cities, and I bet they must both have a special charm in winter!

As for songs beginning with X, Mariah's "X-Gilfriend" comes to mind. Not my favourite track of hers, to be honest -- it's as bubblegum pop as her discography can get.

Numbers, though -- "96 Tears" by Aretha, which I learned fairly recently it's a cover. I think Brad covered it in one of his TuneTags (where most of us get our music education from, ain't gonna lie!)

Thanks Andy! I’m pretty sure I’ve never heard X-Girlfriend but then again I’m not overly familiar with Mariah’s catalog outside of her biggest hits. I remember when I was a kid I had the old single of 96 Tears from the band ? And The Mysterions. I hadn’t realized that Aretha had covered it, we’ll have to give her version a listen!
