Day 10: A song that you can sing really well

Sing well? No, not really. Sing often? Yes! This one is a go-to sing in the shower song.

Ingrid Michaelson - You & I


And, yes, I caved* to peer pressure from @lavendersilk ✨
I got to hear it before it went *poof* I love shower songs. The acoustics are great! I love your voice. You do sing well. totally not thinking about you in the shower right now.
 
Day 11: A song that you resonate most with right now

We had a fight a few days ago. One of those big ones. And then she skipped the country - it's her job after all. Meanwhile I'm stuck here alone. I love this little town, but I hate it too. I miss her. But I'm so fucking angry still. I miss my friends. But I don't miss the big city. I wanna have the cake and eat it too.

You hug me tight but it doesn't matter
In a hundred years no one will remember
I'm so scared that folk will
forget, just like we did
that we loved each other


Kent - Berg & Dalvana
(A pun. Berg & Dalbana means rollercoaster. Vana means habit. The tumultuous patterns of life)

Unavailable to us, dear heart. And I am sorry.
 
Day 11: A song that you resonate most with right now.

Not being able to move on:

"Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you"

We have ghosts, and they stay, and they whisper.

And yet, and yet....

Moving on:

"But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find."

"Ordinary World," Duran Duran


(Ours is just a little sorrowed talk...)

Oh, no! I'm running out of Sarah McLachlan songs to share! (I'm not even sure that I haven't already shared this one. 😬)

Witness - Sarah McLachlan

Will we burn in heaven
like we do down here
will the change come
while we're waiting


Everyone is waiting

Ok let's go!

Day 11: A song that you resonate most with right now

I don't know how to sing
I can barely play this thing
But you never seem to mind
and you tell me to fuck off
When I need somebody to,
How you make me laugh so hard



'The Reasons'

(I know you might roll your eyes at this, but I'm so glad that you exist)
 
Holy hell! I've got some catching up to do. And this month's challenge is truly a challenge. Really making us think!! Apologies if any of these are repeats. Haven't had time to go through all the posts this past week 🤪

Day 6: A song that transports you to another place and time
Senior year of HS crashing UMass Amherst parties.

Day 7: A song that would be the soundtrack to your training montage

Day 8: A song that is really good live (based on your experience)

Day 9: A song that you can’t help but dance to

Day 10: A song that you can sing really well
Hmmm? I can't hit the high notes like before, but I used to sing this pretty well.
