Twilight - Thriving Ivory.
The voice takes some time to getting used to, and after listening to it a second time, I fell in love with this song.
I barely knew all the lyrics and I found myself driving in the car, listening to it at least 5 times to learn them.
I've CIRCLED my neighborhood, just to hear the entire song.
I love everything about this song. I love the beat, I love the melody, I love the lyrics.
Most of all, I love how it makes me feel .. how I get lost in this song. No
And I've been racking my brain for the longest time, what it is about this song that makes me just love it.
I'm sure people don't question, but I'm always curious .. I always want to know.
I especially, almost forgot, love the piano part. It's simple, but so pretty to my ears.
I want to play this. I WILL learn this before this year is over.
And then I'm going to play it for anyone to hear, singing along while my fingers graze across the keys, hopefully hitting every note right.
I was thinking about all this driving home from Vanessa's when this came on shuffle.
Quickly, I turned it up louder and tapped my fingers along on the wheel when it hit me.
All of a sudden I felt the heat creep up in my cheeks (mind you, it wasn't that hot at 530 and the wind was a-blowin') and I started that whole, nervous laughing deal that I do.
Because I realized at that moment why I love the song so much.
Why I get lost in it. Why I want to play it so bad. Of course, there are why's that go deeper than that.
But it sure does explain my immediate love for this song.
Like most, when I like a song, it could be for a variety of reasons.
I either relate to it well, it makes me think, it reminds me of memories , or I just plain like it because it's fun/cute/pretty/awesome/dark etc.
This song .. I relate to. Very, very much. And make fun of me, whatever, I really don't care if you hate when people relate to songs.
I do.. soooo you can just get over that, thanks and move right along. :) We all have different opinions on how/why we love certain tunes.
It reminds me of one moment, back back in college, one of those "choose me or them" sort of moments.
This song, tells my side.. perfectly. Before, during, after. All of it. It's practically dead on.
I just have this feeling .. I have this need to learn this song. I have to have it known, so that I can play it any time I want.
I couldn't tell you why .. it's just a gut feeling.
I've never been so afraid to speak up about my feelings about anyone in particular as I do right now.
I know exactly how I feel, but I'm busy locking them up and keeping them safe inside for as long as I can.
I'm doing too good of a job hiding it to let it out now, at the most inconvieniant* time ever.
* .. and I definitely chopped up that spelling. Damn.
