Duh! moment for Friday

I love the moments when I realise something so obvious it causes my brain to reset. In a good way. For instance, today, literally few minutes ago, I’ve just had one of those realisations. It’s Friday, and I don’t know what you do on Friday, but for me, one of the first things I do, is open Spotify and check what’s new on the Release Radar playlist.

Of topic a bit….I’ve read somewhere (don’t remember where and I’m too lazy to look it up) that one stops discovering new music and that the music taste basically stops evolving around the age of 30….and I’ve never read more bull crap in my life….I’m way past 30 just in case you’re wondering.

Anyway, so I’ve checked what’s happening in the music department and there’s a new cover of “A Girl Like You” written by Edwyn Collins. I love the original, I remember listening to it, it was everywhere on the radio, on MTV (is MTV still a thing?), you couldn’t get away from it. Listening to the cover (which I also love), I’ve realised that I never understood this song….in fact, I probably didn’t understand a lot of songs back then. And I don’t mean just their message, I mean the words, the language itself….and I didn’t need to understand. That’s how powerful music is. It speaks on another level where words and language are not necessary….and it kind of blew my mind.

Realising this now is so absurd to me….music has always been everything to me, my escape, my happy place, my fuel, my courage, my inspiration, a space where I can connect with my emotions. I don’t mean to sound dramatic but I think I would die without music, just the thought of never hearing music ever again makes me feel unwell, hopeless, desperate.

I am grateful to all musicians and artists that share their talent with the rest of us, cooking and preparing these delicious meals for our ears, keeping us satisfied, content and alive. Thank you.

Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who visited, liked a commented on my works during last month. It is very much appreciated 🙂

Your support truly helped me with sticking to the challenge. 
I am not sure if I can keep up with regular uploads in the future but I will try my best....or perhaps I need to find a new challenge!

Thank you all

has every person at the age of 27
thought about death?

i did
i remember being haunted 
by the thought 
but why?

27
it's an imaginary milestone
our youth turning
into a true adulthood 
a little death

death of our wildest dreams
fantasies about our futures 

harsh slap of reality
Note: This was the biggest stretch of them all! The above image of double lined Z is a symbol for a set of integers. Number 27 is a part of this set...stretch. 

young man

he reminds me of my youth
the one i wasted, never lived
i want it back 

he lives his life to the brink
i envy him
he has no fear
no worry
no care what society thinks

he's a young man
and i'm young with him

xx (kiss kiss)

stick up my nose every week
never ending cycle of
home-work-grocery shop
behind locked doors by 8
no space at home
only escape is running
when i daydream 
i don't even mind 
the cold, the wind, the rain
enough of this
i'm turning into anarchist 

xx

unreleased

stuck
chained
restrained 

can't move
can't escape

i promise to be
a good girl
release me


note: cheat again as i couldn't find a song starting with the letter u but still kind of on the theme as mgk has plenty of unreleased material.
