Music

On the way home tonight (like most nights) I think about how I'm going to update Facebook and add a new song. I do try to find songs that are a little obscure - if you see the list, I don't often succeed. But tonight, I thought of a song I loved when I was a teenager. It's called "Twist in My Sobriety" by Tanita Takaram. When I was younger, I thought the lyrics and the mood of the song were so powerful, but I didn't really understand what it meant.

(Aside: I really thought Little Red Corvette was about a car until I was almost 30.)

Now, when I hear the song, it makes more sense than I thought. I think you have to have your heart completely stomped to get it. Then you need to meet throngs of the wrong person for you. I'm good at both of those things.

Hopefully, this time around, it won't end that way.
