(Current Sounds: ...well, something)
Quick Prompt:
"What is your favorite song and why?"
I have WAY too many to list, but my most recent one I've taken quite an obsession to is Yatta! by Happatai. The song, by the way means, "Alright!"--the Japanese equivalent to being good about everything. The whole song altogether is about happiness. When I first saw it, on video form, I was surprised to see the whole band singing in only underwear and cardboard green leaves covering their happy places. What was I going into?
I then looked up the song's lyrics and its actually got a story behind it. It addresses that the world we live in is full of hard times--the economic recession, the wars, everything that summed up bad in our society. This whole song talks about just being happy with the simple things we still have, whether it be the morning sun greeting you everyday and having family by your side. Even breathing! "Yatta" is a salute to the troubles of today, and telling you to be happy with whatever you have--and plus, since watching that movie three weeks ago, I seemed to have a liking for green leaves now. Just not for clothes, that would be scratchy

My current favorite is A Woman Like You by Johnny Reid, who I think of as the Bryan Adams of Country.You Tube it if you want to hear it, but the video is awful, so just listen to the song with your eyes shut! The song makes me imagine my husband is saying these wonderful things to me! He is a good man and I know I am blessed to be his wife. I know....mushy mushy mushy!!!!!
:D Aww that's so sweet! I'll go and look it up too ^.^
