30 Day Song Challenge - Day 14

A song that no one would expect you to love:

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 11

A song by your favourite band:



the best, just, the best.

I said "don't you turn around, wouldn't like what you found out here anyhow..."

Sometimes it's hard to remember that not everyone is the same, and that you can't always find the solution to other people's problems. I think that perhaps the worst is knowing that there is a good chance that there is nothing you can do to make someone happy, because it's not the world that's getting them down, but it's a problem that originates within them (seriously, there is nothing I can personally do about chemical imbalances). It's just rough; it's hard to watch a friend smile, and know that it's only a fleeting sense of happiness.

I'm pretty much the worst at remembering lyrics. The only reason why I remember all of the lyrics of this song, is because it has very few lyrics.

A song that reminds you of a certain event:



This song played at my friend Jessica's funeral. It was the first funeral I've ever attended for a friend. It still makes me sad to listen to this song.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 3

A song that makes me happy:




This song has been one of my favourite songs since I was 17. Just hearing them play this song is enough to get me through some of the worst parts of life. It's perfect for me.

My favourite song:




It was the first to come to mind, though so did many others. The memory attached to this song is not my favourite, but that does not change my love for it.
