Relation to Music

I'm a bit of a music freak. I have my iTunes on shuffle and even if it's on a low volume, it's always on. I can't sleep without my music on. It's just something about scilence that bothers me. I have a very active imagination so if I hear something, I will always make it bigger than what it actually is. So music is my saviour.

Because I'm always listening to something, I tend to relate certian songs to people and from that point on, whenever I hear that song I will think of them. Often, the songs I pick are not always the most popular of that time, or necessarily a song that everybody would know.

"One Hundred days have made me older since the last time I saw your pretty face. A thousand laughs have made me colder and I don't think I can look at this the same. But all the miles that seperate, dissapear now when I'm dreaming of your face..."
This song gives me the chills every time I hear it. It reminds me of my first love. We live so far away, but whenever we were together it was electric. I hope I find love like that again.

"Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band. Pretty eyed, pirate smile, she'll marry a music man. Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand"
Instantly I thought of my dancing Queen. Whenever I hear this song I feel a presence with me, like as if we were just chillin on the couch, and I can't help but smile. Friends come from the weirdest places, and you can meet the most amazing people through friends, and often those friends become closer to your heart than you would ever imagine.

"Every memory of walking out the front door, I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for. It's hard to say it, time to say it; Goodbye, goodbye.
We used to listen to the radio and sing along with every song we know. We said someday we'd find out how it feels To sing to more than just the steering wheel. I miss that town, I miss the faces, You can't erase, You can't replace it, I miss it now, I can't believe it. So hard to stay, Too hard to leave it."
Anytime I'm homesick I listen to this song. I'm instantly brought back to Barrie. Actually brought back to watching the sunset on Johnson's beach over the lake. And anybody who has ever been there knows exactly what I'm talking about. Looking across the lake to Barrie, watching the ambulance drive down lakeshore, and seeing the lights slowly come on.

"I can be anything that you want me to be. A punching bag, A piece of string that reminds you not to think. They found the note down in your car. It’s not your fault it gets this hard. Hold your head high, Don’t look down. I’m by your side I won't back down"
Surprisingly this song reminds me of highschool. I was always trying to mold into what I thought a good person would be. I was always that person who you could talk to, but I was also a gossip queen. I have since nixed that trait, and I've concentrated on keeping secrets. I think I'm getting pretty damn good at it!

If I know you, I have a song for you. If your curious enough, ask me. But don't be surprised at my answer. Often it's a chorus or a couple lines or even a melody that capures me. But You'll never know unless you ask.

"Spread your wings and prepare to fly, For you have become a butterfly. Fly abandonedly into the sun. If you should return to me, We truly were ment to be. So spread your wings and fly Butterfly"
