Not sure how to help you out with it, but you're at least not alone. Robert Smith from The Cure had the same problem with the song "Friday I'm in Love": https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_I%27m_in_Love

"During the writing process, Robert Smith became convinced that he had inadvertently stolen the chord progression from somewhere, and this led him to a state of paranoia where he called everyone he could think of and played the song for them, asking if they had heard it before. None of them had, and Smith realised that the melody was indeed his."

Backpack Hero gets close to that in a rougelike/lite kind of way

I'm always partial to "PONYO LOVES HAM!!!"

It's wild that's legal there! Where I live learners and provisional riders are restricted by power to weight ratio (150kw per tonne/200hp per 2000lbs), and that honestly seems like it keeps them on reasonable bikes for the skill level without having them all stuck on 125cc bikes struggling to reach the speed limit

Fun fact, Popular streamer Jerma985 voices the character that runs you through the tutorial in this game.

I've always loved a Frangipani (especially the white ones)

Picture of White Frangipani Flowers

I have a soft spot for flowering trees, and these always remind me of fun times by the coast (plus some part of me thinks they look like a delicious forbidden food).

The car and road are from the cover of a Nickleback album: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_the_Right_Reasons

I think it's Gen 6 (PS2/Xbox). But at the time the Gen 6 consoles were new, the Gen 3 that you consider retro was about 20 years old, just like these consoles are now. I think they still fit the label of retro pretty well, but it's always hard to consider something newer than your childhood as "old" tbh

Honestly, I had to look up what that term meant. I can see why it would look like that, but I just thought it would provide context to who he is. He's got 1.4 million followers on Twitch and I think a few million subs on YouTube as well, so I figured it was reasonable to say he's pretty popular

(If you're wondering why mine looks weird it's from YT Music instead of Spotify)

I always find with these recaps that I don't remember listening to one specific song more than others, and I'm constantly surprised by what the top 5 are. That being said, I usually just listen to the personalized mixes, so maybe part of it is the algorithm deciding that I really like a song because I haven't skipped it 🤷

100% agree about the fragrance, one of my faves!

I've recently been playing a lot of We Who Are About To Die, and even though it's an early access game, its been great fun. It's a roguelite physics-based arena fighter where you play as an aspiring gladiator, and fight your way up the ranks. The multiple types of matches and mutators really keep the gameplay feeling fresh, and the mechanics are surprisingly deep.

The other game that I've been playing a lot is Dinkum, which is somewhat like a mix of Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley, with heavy Australian Outback overtones. It's a nice game to play with friends and significant others, since there's plenty to do with a good mix of action and cosy gameplay.

Honestly that's a good guess, you're less than 5 years off haha
