song

If days had themes .. I think today's would have been- song

Last night I had dreams of being in some space with Sarah (my best friend from Taipei, an old roomie and crab family sister) I was playing guitar and started to sing a song that we both knew. Sarah joined in and we were singing happily and in harmony. Then we got to one line and it was like, "something something something cry" and I looked at Sarah and she looked back at me and we were both about to cry but we started laughing instead. I think we wanted to cry cus it was nice to sing together, but also because it had been a really long time since we'd seen each other.

Later in the day while at Uni, veev was struggling to keep awake cus of late nights and had gone into some emergency back up mode or something hahaha. Anyway, she was telling me that she had been listening to old school 1960s music to keep her happy. She got her ipod and we both put in one earphone each and she started playing, "Your Love Keeps Lifting Me" and we both couldn't help but be happy and do a silly dance. Hahahahahah oh god it's such a happy song.

During second class, someone asked the Pandas to play Bon Iver. When Skinny Love came on, almost everybody in the room either hummed, sung or said in there minds "my my myyyy..." whenever he sung those words. It was kind of cool. Everyone was in sync for just that moment.

After class I was feeling a bit tired and my mind was blurry but then Backstreets Back played on my ipod and I honestly cannot help but smile a bit whenever it plays. This song has been so deeply rooted in my mind forever. I remember watching the music video of this song back in my house in Canberra. I was in my parent's room and my brother and sister were also there. We stood in a line together and as all of them danced together at the end of the song, my siblings and I would follow the dance steps. I remember thinking that it was the BEST SONG IN THE WORLD and also that the music video was super awesome. (OK. I still think the music video is the coolest and I still love this song.) Over the years I have discovered that two of my best friends also love this song and it is great. Hahaha.

When I was on the tram home my ipod played "Defying Gravity" from Wicked and it made me realise how long it has been since I've seen a musical. I miss musicals. They make me soooo so so happy. Everyone is singing and dancing and acting and there are beautiful and awesome stages and the music is so rad. Ahhhhhh.

Moving on.

I suppose what I'm trying to say is that music is such an important aspect of my life. It brings up vivid memories, it is calming, inspirational and powerful.
