Bang And Olufsen Made Heaps With This Thing
These few days it has always been S Club 7. Haha, and everyone is asking me what's this whole deal with S Club - their passe, their gone, their over. And even though it's technically classified 'uncool' to still be obsessed over 4 year old clean pop songs, but hey.. you can't blame anyone who wants to sit back and remember the past. Hahaha
Songs for me have very specific meaning. Like one song can depict a phase in my life wayyy back then. And then I never ever touch that song again. It's like a tissue for tears kinda thing? You soak it in your tears and then it's down the dustbin. That part of life is over. And I usually don't ever listen to that song ever again.
So S Club has been a big part of this kid-to-teen part of life. Yeah. And then a few days back I accidentally came upon one of their songs on Youtube, and all these thoughts, idealogies, feelings, concepts and events just start to flood my head all over.
There's an oblivion to it actually; why one song can create so much nostalgia. I guess I use songs as roadblocks, or memory banks. And everytime I hear it, I'm reminded of those people and those things that happen in that span of time. S Club 7, has created loads of those banks. Weeellll...It's corny music yeah, but I've gone passed the difference in maturity then and now, gone passed the social stigma that song now holds, and appreciated it for being one song in the soundtrack of my life.
Hmmm... soundtrack of my life.
I bet everyone has something like that.
Songs that cut so deep, it's inevitably part of us? It's as if they were the songs that carried us through difficult times. Like a photo album, but sorta in a less tangible kinda way. Haha..whatever am I talking about. The rhythmn, the smooth transitions of the synthesizer beats with the acoustic guitar, and the perfectly harmonized voices. Those are the things that comfort me. The way the music calms me down and make me think through things more thoroughly. It's played over and over, and the familiarity it draws out is like that of a friend's. And I seek comfort in the tiny things like that.
Music is probably the most awesome gift God has ever given. Haha. I can't imagine our world without things like notes, or tabs, or singing, or mikes and stands and violins and guitars and on and on. Small things that create greater sounds and rhythms that our ancestors never thought of ever creating. The way a series of notes and words can pull your mood up and down, make you feel good about yourself, or make you cry cause you're reminded of something that goes with the song. It can exagerrate whatever you're feeling, amplify it a thousandfold, and make you do things you never thought you would.
Woah, it sounds kinda divine huh. haha.
YEAH AND I'M PISSED S CLUB BROKE UP. Hahahaha
