Have one ? Does it change often, are you up with the latest trends in the genres you enjoy, or is it an old favourite from your childhood or some other significant time in your life .
What does the music evoke for you? Is it memories you cherish, or does it make your toes tap and fingers move. Perhaps both ? Lucky you.
Mine makes me want to run faster, play air drums and sing. In fact, for me, music and my favourite songs are a barometer of my soul. I listen more when I'm in a better frame of mind, and singing - out loud and proud - is a sign of real mental health I've learned about myself. In fact one of the reasons I think I enjoy summer more than winter is that I don't have a winter outlet to sing. I sing the most while riding my bike, and that (usually) takes place when it's warmer. It's my cocoon flying along at 30kph and I can pretend no one can hear me. The big impediment is bugs - draw your own picture.
My favourite song at the moment is one that completely exceeded expectations when I first heard it. I was with someone special and I heard it live and loved it right away. Every time I hear it now my thoughts go back to that sunny day, the keyboard players bright hair and how it just 'worked' for me from the very first time. I'm good at sharing - so here it is - enjoy it, and think of me when you listen to it. The band is still getting established by the way, so buy a copy if you like it.
