What Song Are You Listening To Right Now?

[MrMoonlight]

@Tornadic Thoughts I like reaching back for those songs. Love that you are so eclectic with music too.

 

[MrMoonlight]

Trying to start my day with good vibe music.

 

[Teasel]

Love that 2nd one Mr Moonlight :)

 

[The Albatross]

Old guy garage band... very Kansas-esque… like the lyrics. They made me smile today.

 

[Invisible Fire]

Imagine dragons newest song. Bad Liar.

 

[MrMoonlight]

I really like that band too @berlinda . I have to give credit to @Tornadic Thoughts though, she posted a song by them some time ago and I felt just like you. ✌

Feeling this one on many levels today...

"...that's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under...."

 

[Lionheart]

I am coming to a place in my life, where music is increasingly difficult for me to listen to. This sucks because it has been my 'go to' for happiness and inspiration for a long time.

Although I would never had admitted it in the past, I liked to play music and sing for an audience even if that was just hanging out with my sister. Now that sister is gone, so is my desire to listen to and sing along with the music. I guess grief has a way of doing that to a person.

One tune stands out though because I was a huge fan of Greg Lake. I wanted to be him and sister thought he was hot. lol
so here it is...

The Sage

@Lionheart777 doubtless a form of grieving. Healthy grieving is about 3 years so it would be wise to explore other outlets as you've experienced familial losses several times now. (I had 10 in 7 years at one time... the trick is to know when to recognize and reroute your coping management skills).

Appreciated the alt-J link... did some digging. I did use tetris gaming and collapse to rewire my brain and diffuse audio triggers so liked the lyrics in the beginning of the song.... the rest reminds me of free flow stream of consciousness that was my shrink's treatment of preference. Which I sucked at but over time have improved on.

so here's my alt-J fav:

 

[The Albatross]

Graphic vid (runnin' like hell and getting arrow shot) but I personally identify so since we don't do trigger warnings exercise caution but my 2nd alt-J fav now is:

It appeals with my sense urge to run on ahead... push like hell and just barrel through til I succumb/fall in life. Dunno if I'm ever gonna be able to best/beat that urge. I am also appreciative of the visual demonstrative of will and purpose over injury... resilience and survival in spite of unfavorable odds. I seem to have become rather jaded. There is no question of succumbing... the questions only is how/when will I address this. Apologies, feeling rather stoic/reality based today.

Personally, and I wonder how many others... would have had the instinct to never run out into that open field but instead keep to the cover? Just the first thing that came to mind. Errors can be fatal.

Heh the irony does not escape me that the trees in the video are not pine.

 

[The Albatross]

Concluding the psyche up with Radioactive and Believer from Imagine Dragons.

Still like the Lou Diamond Phillips version... cuz that's what it felt like then... my dad was such an asshole dunno if I can ever defeat the fight response to my detriment.
