❌Monthly Song Challenge: Archived🎵

Aurora has been on my mind since I found this thread but haven't found the day to post her. She's one of my favorite people in the whole world! Such a unique little time traveling neo-hippie. Nothing but pure love for her and her art :love: :love:
I found her a few years ago when my daughter started playing her music. There is such a striated quality to her voice, it's difficult to explain how I experience music visually, but her voice and harmonies & are multilayered & soothing in a very unique way
 
it's difficult to explain how I experience music visually,
Synesthetic? Shapes, colors, movements? It really adds a whole 'nother layer to music! And I completely agree, she's a very vibrant dark royal blue, like a night sky. I can't link anything in here or I'll get a spanking from the thread-goddess (uh... on second thought, maybe that's worth exploring) but her live acoustic performances where it's just her and her producer/drummer are pure magic.

Yes, chromesthesia, trying to describe what i see is like trying explain color to a blind person. I can try, but words always fail. Feel free & DM me any music, ya know, unless you the spanking😂
 
Day 7: A song for a foggy/misty morning

It's as if the veil between here and wherever awaits is tangible on misty mornings. Powerful and ethereal music is my requirement on such days.
Oh this. This I like. The exact opposite of what I was going for, but I get it. As a percussionist, this is fantastic. Reminds me of Tengger cavalry or The Hu, Mongolian heavy metal bands who incorporate cultural instruments and language into the music. It has a similar, primal feel.

I like The Hu. Haven't heard of the other band but I'm looking them up now 😊
 
Day 7: A song for a foggy/misty morning

Is it possible for something to become so familiar that you no longer immediately recognize the sheer genius?
This is the song that instantly popped into my mind, but then I went off looking for something "better". This was played so damn much in my house when I was a young child growing up that it had become more familiar and comforting than something that I considered challenging or revolutionary... but I decided to go with my initial gut instinct for today's theme, and then stopped to give it a listen. Oh my god, the lyricism. Fuck!

"Then take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves
The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today until tomorrow"

Bob Dylan - Mr. Tambourine Man

 
Day 7 - A song for a misty foggy morning

I almost went with “Good Morning, Good Morning” and then I got a much better choice:
