The eyes have it.

I don’t think it’s any secret that I love I mean really, love music. Without music I am sure that my life would have been a much darker experience. There are times, still, when immersing myself in music is the only way I can gain any kind of balance in my day. Like some sort of crazy wandering around the house with headphones on. One of my greatest fears in life is the thought of not being able to hear music. *shudder*. But it’s not just the music. It’s the words. The ability to make me feel that any crazy thoughts or feelings I might be having are not unique to me. Other people have felt the same. The difference being that they have been able to articulate those feelings into words. Whereas I will have articulated same said feelings into bad-temper, silence, or some other equally unattractive trait. I guess it’s no coincidence that the less balanced, the less assured I feel the more music, the more words, I listen to. I have been listening to a lot of music over the last year.
Tonight I am going to see The Shins in London. This excites me greatly. They being an almost perfect combination of words and music. My ‘love’ of them has somewhat taken off in the last year. Given their last album was five years ago I have never seen them live so am looking forward to doing so muchly.
Here is a particularly super song from their latest album “Port of Morrow”.
And the beautiful, beautiful lyrics.
Died in the wool, you've been cornered by a natural desire
You want to hop along with the giddy throng through life
But how will you learn to steer when they're grinding all your gears?
