It&#8217;s not the love of your life, it&#8217;s just someone cute who you share a few minutes with, and that&#8217;s enough.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;On My Mind&#8217; is a worthy addition to the disco movement which is slowly being revived, the antidote to quarantine boredom, and a brilliant feat of storytelling through song.
