Playlist Prompt #9: "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)"

Hello, friends! Today's prompt, courtesy of Lindsey, is the song "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" by They Might Be Giants.

This song, boiled down to basics, is about change, isn't it? Constantinople became Istanbul, New Amsterdam became New York, etc. Things change.

We change, too. Just like cities and states over time, we change. Sometimes those changes are good, sometimes they're bad, but whether they're good or bad, they happen. Sometimes we change on purpose, sometimes we're the victim of circumstance, but either way, we change. It's inevitable.

It's refreshing to remember that there is one thing in life that never changes.

"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." -Hebrews 13:8
