OMG!! I need to talk about this...
I don't know if it's just me, but I have two ways of listening to music, the healthiest, calmly, letting the music play, moving on to the next one and following the flow. The other way is to listen to a very good specific song over and over again, until I get bored and stop listening, some of them become common songs and go on the playlist to be listened to without obsession, others I definitely stop listening to, but the funny thing is that After a long time without listening to this specific song, when I hear it again the emotion is the same as the first time. Is it like that with you too?
#3 In third place we have Jonathan Bree - You're so cool.
This song was introduced to me by a friend, and I fell in love at first, the video has an aesthetic that I love, and the lyrics? a mix of "he" is adoring "her"? Or is he being sarcastic? anyway, I love it... and it's one of those songs that I listen to without obsession, I just enjoy it when it comes on my headphones.
#2 In second place we have Simon & Garfunkel - Mrs. Robinson. This is one of those songs that I was obsessed with, I don't know, 8 years ago? and now I'm back to listening with the same passion! Anyway, I don't have many idols, but Simon & Garfunkel certainly has my heart.
#1 In first place we have OSCOB - take care, it’s a desert out there. This song is my most recent obsession, I discovered it on my boyfriend's playlist, this music takes me on a trip like there are mushrooms in my head, I don't need to say anything else, right?
My obsession made me discover a lot about this song and of course new obsessions. It is actually a Brazilian composition by Carlos Lyra and Vinicius de Moraes, a delicious bossa nova called Maria Moita that was recorded by Carlos Lyra and Dulce Nunes and then by Astrud Gilberto in English - Maria quiet. Later listening to another song that I love, Come as you are, performed by Cetano Veloso, where he makes a clear reference and tribute to Maria Moita in a certain section. And finally, my last discovery regarding this song is one of the greatest rock classics, Deep Purple - Smoke on the Water, in its opening riff.
