The hotel I am staying in for work has almost no 3/4/5G signal and I can't connect to the WIFI 😭

 

Keep 'em coming and I will add them to the playlist when I get enough bandwidth.

Oh, thanks for pointing that out! 😉  I'm singing it on Friday to a packed house and now I have to remember not to get it wrong. But not remember too hard or I definitely will!
