    "comment": "Tony in Santa Rosa:\nAfter moving to Seattle in 2014, I found KEXP and especially enjoyed waking up to Positive Vibrations with DJ Kid Hops (shout out to Kid Hops) on Saturdays. A few years later I met my current partner and her dog Edward. Pretty soon Edward was always around me and my dog Chancey and we both loved the song \"Pumpkin Belly\" by Gappy Ranks of which we first heard on Positive Vibrations. Since Edward had a big ole pumpkin belly, I soon named it Edward’s song. We found out Edward had cancer all over in his prime late last year and we had to go through the difficult process of waiting as long as we could before putting him down. My partner struggles with his loss more than me at this point but certain songs still get me to tear up thinking about Edward. However, hearing \"Pumpkin Belly\" brings out more happy tears, so I would love for you to please play it and bring me back to striding aside that big ole pumpkin belly on the streets of Ballard for a few minutes today :)",
