On this episode of Good Vinyl Mornings, PL Sweets breaks down a truth we don’t always like to face: correction isn’t punishment — it’s an invitation to get better. And nothing frames that message with more honesty than Champaign’s smooth 1983 classic, “Try Again.”
Before the synth lines shimmer in and the drums settle into that slow-groove pocket, the song already embodies the spirit of humility. It’s a track about owning your missteps, rediscovering your center, and being willing to start again with clearer eyes and a stronger heart. Champaign didn’t just write a love song — they wrote a soundtrack for accountability.
PL Sweets digs into how correction is often wrapped in discomfort, pride, or embarrassment, but behind it sits pure opportunity. The chance to refine your craft. The chance to adjust your attitude. The chance to finally confront the habits you’ve been avoiding. The chance… to try again.
Most people run from correction because it exposes flaws. But in reality, it reveals promise.
Correction points to the version of you that’s possible — the version you haven’t fully stepped into yet.
So instead of shrinking back, this episode invites you to rethink the moments that feel like a setback. What if correction is actually a vote of confidence? What if someone pointing out your blind spot is really someone believing you can rise above it?
Just like the title says, the message is simple: Try again. Not from the same place, but from a wiser one.
And today, PL Sweets gives you the soundtrack and the reminder to do exactly that.
