every song ends....

“Every song has a CODA, a final movement. Whether it fades out or crashes away. Every song ends. Is that any reason not to enjoy the music? The truth is, there is nothing to be afraid of. "

Music is MY thing. Not singing, not playing the piano, but music. Plugging in my ipod, turning it up and tuning out the world for a small moment. It's the feeling that I get when I discover new songs, the songs that say exactly what I want to say, but I can't. The songs that I LOVE describe me, my life, and things i go through perfectly. It's the feeling that you get when you start to play a song, and the you feel like they're singing right to you, the words fit you perfectly. How about making a mix cd for someone, say a boy, and every song on that cd has a special meaning, but that boy probably won't know what the meaning is because he doesn't get the music like you do. Normal radio songs don't impress me...they don't get put to the top of my fav song list just because everyone else likes them, sure I'll sing them because they're catchy, but they won't make an impact on my life. I like songs that I can remember where I was when I first heard them, or they describe a special moment or event in my life. A song by the group "Avalon" made me realize that I was not saved, and I can remember everything about that moment in my life. Taylor Swift's "Breath" I remember hearing for the first time after a long and stressful day and I was relaxing in a bubble bath, and it came on and I cried. I can't listen to anything by Secondhand Serenade because it reminds me of my ex boyfriend and how every song that I listened to reminded me of him. Colbie Caillat: Battle came on my ipod right after my boyfriend broke up with me in the OutBack parking lot..needless to say, I bawled like a baby! Music defines me, it makes me me, it makes me happy, sad, and sometimes even mad. Music is the one thing that I will always have, it never fades, what an amazing thing we have in such a simple sound!
