Current Favorite Songs

December 22, 2009

There are two songs that I really really like right now. One is “Maddening Shroud” by Frou Frou. It goes something like:

Frou Frou - Details - 09 - Maddening Shroud (Frou Frou)

Sometimes I like to get away from this maddening shroud

Sometimes I laugh, you know, it’s all insane

Maybe it’s time for me to pack it in

Maybe it’s time for me to track it in

Maybe it’s time for me to throw…

I’ve got a good mind to throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away

After all, what is it worth?

 

I like it because it’s light and carefree. Here is a woman thinking of turning her back against everything she knows and built but she is singing about it as if she were happy. The song makes me want to stowaway to China or Switzerland without telling anyone.

 

The second song I like is “Don’t Be Afraid, You Have Just Got Your Eyes Closed” by Mum. If I were a fantasy RPG character exploring the world this is the song that should be playing in the background. It sounds optimistic about finding the next town or treasure chest and eventually, beating the Big Bad Evil of the land.

04 Don’t Be Afraid, You Have Just Got Your Eyes Closed

 

I’m all about happiness and optimism so I love happy, optimistic songs. This attitude - it keeps me sane.
