The Most Depressing Monday Music
Today is a special day. It's not only Martin Luther King Day in the United States and it's the eve of the day of the inauguration of their next president, but it is also, according to researchers here in the UK, the most depressing day of the year. I suppose it's around now that the buzz of Christmas and New Year has worn off, work commitments are brought home and the postman brings the next round of bills. I bet the weather is involved somewhere along the line too. So, it's not meant to be the greatest of days, but let's not succumb to it. Gird up your loins. Stiffen that upper lip. Pull up your socks. Brace yourself. Grasp the nettle with both hands. And if you're still able to do so, get your head down and your nose to the grindstone. We'll get through it. Or, we won't.
Either way, here's a wonderful track which isn't at all depressing, but has an interesting title.
This should send us on our way either to oblivion or to an altogether more desirable destination in good stead and with fine music in our ears.
The track is from perhaps Switzerland's finest export, Stendeck, although Toblerone might come a close second. I've featured Stendeck previously on Monday Music so, as you might gather, I'm a bit of a fan... I've not featured Toblerone in any previous Monday Music posts. But I don't rule it out.

Enjoy! (hopefully)
