Song Meme Days 8-11

I was supposed to do a shitload of these and the next couple of them don't involve any technical reasoning behind the motivation for choosing them - so I'm just going to list them off.

Day 04 - A song that makes you sad
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah




There isn't anything I could even say about this song. Jeff Buckley has the most gut wrenching voice I've ever heard and I'm crying like a baby anytime this song is played the entire way through. I'm not even going to entertain you with words. Just listen.

Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone
Seal - Kiss From a Rose




Every time my Mom would drive me to Kindergarten I would pop in the Cassette single of this song and play it on repeat. Anytime I hear this song I can still imagine the scene of us waiting in the parking lot and for her to drop me off. The scent and everything as well. So many songs bring back memories and make them vivid and this is the one that always pops up first.

Day 06 - A Song that Reminds you of Somewhere
Metric - Parkdale




Right before I left on my road trip to Arizona, made me a mixtape of music that had the theme of traveling. The song that stuck out the most and the song I played constantly on my road trip and still today was this song. It's cute and poppy and the lyrics are really nice. I haven't heard much else from Metric but always wanted to get into them.

Day 07 - A Song that Reminds you of a current event
Christina Aguilera - Lift me Up (Hope for Haiti 2010)




Talk about an amazing performance? Reminds me of the telethon and reading all of the news on what was happening with Haiti, as well as other natural disasters that have happened in recent years. This could also go under a song that makes me sad. But only during this live performance.

Day 08 - A Song That You Know All the Words To
TLC - No Scrubs




You would expect me not to know all the words to a TLC song? I know all the words to their entire catalog of music.

That's all for now. After these days I get back into explaining things.
