anyone who follows my journal regularly should know certain things about me by now.... whats happening in my life... what i do... how hard i work.... but not really me...
but you will know little bis
one of them that would have come across is the ups and downs.... i go from really up and positive to quite down and negative... all quite quickly...
another thing you may have noticed is the huge influence and synchronistic nature of music on my life.... a single song can turn me around, tell me what i need to know, answer questions, even solve problems... such is the influence of music on my life...
i've been pretty down recently.... the jules thing hit me quite hard recently... as did my situation and where it looked like i was going.... i felt doomed to a degree....
a few songs influenced this state of mind for good or bad recently, hearing them at poignant moments
pieces by sum 41
emily by stephen fretwell
feel better by santana
to name a few of them that had impct
then today... i heard the song... the one that changes it all around... wakes me up as it were, says something a lot more than what it delivers.... the reason these people write these songs
feeling good... nina simone
now that sounds a little obvious.... but to appreciate this fully you need to listen to the opening section... i know you all know it... and can sing along.... but listen to it
its not just the words... its the sound, the feeling it invokes, the message the opening section conveys as she sings it alone before the music starts... in its words and feeling... its a lot more than the sum of its parts
Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
it is
and i am
