nothing better than to apologize

The snow collects the good with the bad, as can be seen when it melts. This blog is my snow, holding onto my experiences.

nothing better than to apologize
12.14.07 (11:09 pm)   [edit]

The work-week ended on a high note. :) Friday finally came, and even with a late night, the new day was welcoming. Things that might otherwise irritate or worse were brushed off or even accepted as part of life. I must have worn my rose-tinted glasses today. ;) I also listened to 'Nothing Better' by the Postal Service all day- literally. That was the only song I listened to from 7 a.m. to 5p.m. I don't normally obsess like that, but it really seemed to strike a chord. Plus, the twinge (or thensome) of sadness that I normally associate with P.S. was not there today, so it was extra nice to listen to it and only get good vibes. Afterwards, as I was driving around, I heard 'Apologize' by Timbaland four times (different radio stations). Then, I came home and have heard it more since then via youtube. I was familiar with the song because of its use during a beautifully powertful performance on 'So You Think You Can Dance.'  The song seems really fitting for a friend who is having a hard time with family. There is a lot of hurt going on and the song at the very least is really emotional, as they are. When, if ever, is it too late to try to work things out? What song has been stuck in your head, or has been especially meaningful to you lately?

Wow I've heard of this habit of obsessing over songs but haven't done it before, except in the context of trying to record something. I like Postal Service too, but they always exhibit a melancholic sadness for me.

Reply to Dave:
because this was so bizarre to me, I chose to share it. normally, a number of songs play around in my mind. Sometimes, a particular artist or type of music resonates more, but this is the first time it's been limited to two songs in one day. There are other songs that have had a big impact, though, like Peter Gabriel's 'Grieve.'

Also, PS does the same thing for me, every other day except that one. That's why it encouraged me to keep listening- if I can listen to it and only gain good, positive things from it, then why not?
