#JukeBoxFridayNight#SchoolsOut

One final one from me for today.

I was at Uni and when the semester finished (so technically ‘grown up school’), I helped my lecturer with a mini project in the lab. The lead technician had this song on repeat (along with You Stole the Sun from my Heart) and I grew to love it.

My #JukeboxFridayNight song for the #SchoolsOut theme is "Precious Heart" from Street Fighter EX plus Alpha which has some of the most gorgeous video game tracks ever, but I really like this one which is Sakura's theme. I think it fits because her stage is on a school campus in what appears to be summer and it has a very "school's out" feel to it, especially since it's a fight taking place and the campus is deserted. Like they're just using the school lawn to fight on on a weekend or holiday. It's honestly one of my favorite game tracks of all time.

I guess I'll start #JukeboxFridayNight #JukeboxSometimeOrOther now, as I've not got much else to do today. The theme is #SchoolsOut, and this is my first offering.

I think I'll finish with something that is more about weekends, but it's for all those parents who will have the kids around all day –

"Send the children to bed
and let the drinks come out,
We'll play our favourite records
and kiss on the mouth …"
