Yearlong Song Challenge, Day 72: Sara

Prompt: "A song about a hole"

Selected by Sara


"Hole in the Bottle"
Kelsea Ballerini
kelsea, 2020

If you make it through the video of this song, can you tell me if you think Kelsea is wearing a wig? I feel like her hairline moves a lot. Ballerini is the one of the new pop country queens. This song is not her best, admittedly, but rules and limitations make us think creatively. A common thread in my discussions with Joe when I get frustrated at prompts. Something I should really remember, because that's just how life goes sometimes. It's actually how life goes every day. Looking in the refrigerator to see what you can make for dinner, finding a quicker route to drive to work, how to revive your clothes because everything is too damn expensive. Or, even how to make your own powdered sugar at home because you don't need a whole bag but you want to make the lemon bars from Sunny's recent post.

I feel like your initial question was a dogwhistle to make sure that I watched the whole video and was able to see a pretty girl in her underwear.

HA honestly it was my only thought about the video and then my stream of consciousness took me elsewhere. You can watch pretty girls in their underwear whenever you want, no one is stopping you!

1. I think it's a wig
2. The powdered sugar hack worked so well I was amazed. I'll never shell out another overpriced cent to Domino sugar again.

I hope to still be commenting on PoYB about lemon bars on the final day of the YSC.
