Reading for 2026-11-03.
The board sits between seasons, with monster romps and haunted-house jokes still dancing as the first wish for nothing but a loved one's company arrives.

A second view on the same top 20 — songs named for what they are, plus the topics pulled through the ether.
Shirts and caps that carry the compass. Each one is printed when you order it.
Keep the compass turning.
Every calibration of a song here costs real money. Each charge calls a paid API engine, plus the hosting and other services that hold it all together. This is grassroots, managed and perpetually developed by one person. No venture capital, no investors, no labels, no ads.
If The Rising Compass has shifted how you hear music, throw a few bucks toward keeping it alive and free.
