It’s the Wednesday between two of the big holidays at the end of December. It’s maybe too late to celebrate Christmas if that’s your holiday, and it’s a little too early to celebrate the turning of the year. It may feel like we’re in a bit of a holding pattern as we rest here, betwixt and between.

With that in mind, there are a lot of songs that describe or at least mention the idea of liminal spaces, of being between, of being or feeling in the middle.

So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that convey the idea of being between?
