Day 15 - A Song That Describes You

I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around

All of these questions, such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground

And I am done with my graceless heart
Tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope

Florence + The Machine - Shake It Out

Day 14 - A Song That No One Would Expect You to Love

People are always very surprised to hear that I actually and genuinely like Justin Bieber. I'm honestly more surprised by the people who absolutely detest him, for no real reason. The kid -- well, I guess he's not really a kid anymore -- can sing. In 2009, I even wrote about him in an edition of (the now defunct) WTF, it's only Wednesday? I'm not saying I spend long nights listening to the Biebs on my headphones and contemplating life, but I will say that I've (along with many of my other friends) spent many a time (or two) dancing and singing-a-long to his songs -- Somebody To Love, being one of them. There's something completely amazing and hilarious about a bunch of grown adults belting Somebody To Love at the top of their lungs, and I'll take it. There might also be something a little embarassing about a grown adult blasting Somebody To Love in a car by herself, but I'll take that, too. Especially when it's Usher's remix. Play on playas.
