Jelly?

No. Better not. I like to use that as an insult too much. Usually something like if that jelly had ended up in a pond, some people would be awesome frogs now.

The Alan Parsons Project - Eye in the Sky[^]
A friend and I have been sharing music for the last two weeks.
One album within a specific theme each day.
We came up with the themes up front, put them in a jar, and simply grab a random one each day.
We've got 60's, autumn, chill, Dutch, music we know from our parents...
Now I had to think real hard in that last category as my parents rarely listen to music.
For some reason they stopped doing that after I was born (or maybe earlier, but they've got quite a collection from when they were younger).
Nevertheless I came up with an album that they listened to quite a lot, unfortunately my friend had the same album and I had to come up with a new one (really, what are the odds!?) 
Ultimately, I went for Mike Oldfield, but my first choice was The Alan Parsons Project.
My parents had this best of CD that opened with an intro (Sirius) and then moved on to Eye in the Sky.
Needless to say, good memories, great song, SOTW

I wasn't even 10 at that time, but I remember this song surprisingly well.
I used to play with my father's turntable and cassette recorder, and build my own compilations, of whatever I could gather from my family's discs and those I could afford whenever I got some allowance. I'm pretty sure I would find that title in one of those boxes I stored and never went back to ever since.
Thanks for that nostalgic window

This was released long before I was even born 
I did the same with my parents CD's, but also with the radio, and I used a cassette recorder instead of turntables.
The first album I bought with my own allowance was something completely different though, Toy-Box[^]

You might like Apocalyptica: Apocalyptica - One (Plays Metallica By Four Cellos - A Live Performance) - YouTube[^]
Basically a metal band consisting of four cellists.
Started out by covering Metallica, but they've made their own songs since their second album (and since added drums and sometimes even vocals) and grew out to be one of the more popular metal bands of today.

A coworker used to sing Thunderstruck, but said "Sander!" instead of "Thunder!".
I thought he was just saying my name for some reason, took me months to figure out he was singing AC/DC

Stupid cloud infrastructure, may a thousand elephants do their doo doos at your door. 
We haz a simple set up, SQL Server db, asp.net [5ish] server and a react Dog's Dangles front end.
We use Azure pipelines to build and deploy on Azure, where else, and all is good in the world. Each pr to main kicks off the build. 98.3% of builds are good; the others are mine.
As of Wednesday, builds go boom. All builds.
Even rebuilding previously working build go boom-boom.
Vilmos is sad; see the sad face -> 
We found the problem quickly - the version of npm has ticked over and no longer does the automagic duplicate dependencies to keep it creaking along.
I have now spent two days going through all the packages and (a) deleting the ones that are not referenced and (b) resolving dependency conflicts which required some code changes we weren't planning.
Yesterday's prod push is dead in the water and sure as heck there won't be one today.
That's it, that's the rant. Now get on with the CCC; I think the answer is LIQUID NITROGEN

Too many letters!
Go on, push today: 16:59 on a Friday is always a good day to push to production. What could possibly go wrong?*
