27/2/12, just another day

Hey guys, today i'm listening to "I'm Set Free" by Velvet Underground

I've been set free and I've been bound , to the memories of yesterday's clouds
I've been set free and I've been bound, and now I'm set free
I'm set free , I'm set free to find a new illusion..


 Lou reed once said
"I've concentrated on music pretty much to the exclusion of other things" which got me thinking, maybe i'm just the same. I mean, everything in life for me comes second to music. I'm beginning to wonder if this is actually healthy..

if only the world, really could, live as one..

Today i'm listening to "Imagine" by John Lennon
Eva Cassidy did a great, rather chilling cover of this song.

You may say i'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.

To all those desperately seeking love..

..please, don't seek for it.

 If there's one thing i've learnt over the past couple of months, it's this..
If you have any sort of doubt over a person, and not sure whether you can fully trust them. Please, go with your instinct, and quit while you're ahead.
 It's amazing how much we all underestimate our own judgement.

 So, for every failed relationship you guys out there have. Remember that musics always going to be there to catch your fall. So will chocolate and ice cream...

This week i've been listening to Thirteen Senses. Specifically, their album "The Invitation".
Now, this album is definately one to seek out if it isn't already sitting on your cd shelf.. Not only are the lyrics so involved, each individual song is like a melodic loveliness to sink into. My advice is to buy this album, stick it on your stereo, your laptop or your phone (or whatever it is you guys use to listen to music), and let yourself be carried away by these amazing songs.

Silence is golden

So, today, possibly for the first time in, well...definately a long time. I actually enjoyed a day of silence. I haven't even gone anywhere near my albums, my records, my record player, or any other music playing device for that matter.

 It's amazing how much you can actually clear your mind in silence. I've never felt so peaceful. All this will change tomorrow morning of course when i wake up to the sound of Cheap Trick blasting out my stereo (Busted album, of course). But for all the days i spend dedicating myself to the sound of music, i guess you could say, it's truly blissful to just have one day, of silence.
 I highly recommend it.

Why cry?

Today i'm listening to "Why Cry" by The Panic Channel

If only Perry Farrell existed in this band..
Anyway, there's a lyric in this song that is so relative right now, it's something i'd probably say
"I learned my lesson, i won't give my heart out, without suspecting"..

I so wish that lyrics could just, change everything.

It's true, you get what you give..

Today i'm listening to "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals

One of my favourite lyrics is the open to this song,
Wake up kids, we've got the dreamers disease.

I guess this is mainly because i'm a bit of a dreamer. And by that i mean, i'm always creating a perfect world inside my head, yeah it sounds a bit strange. You find yourself asking, how could you imagine a perfect world when the one you live in is anything but? It's quite simple really, the perfect world i create is normally just imagining myself happy.

just trying to find my way..

Today i'm listening to "Find My Way" by Lifehouse

Someday all this figuring out life is going to come to something, and someday, i will be where i want to be.
