Do you ever have one of those days when the songs that normally cheer you up, just piss you off instead? Yeah, well, I've been having one of those days for a while now. So I finally got around to making a playlist of only safe songs. The kind that are right here where I am. They don't want me to feel any other way, they're totally accepting.

I have this blog because I love music passionately. I love the progression of a song, the swell of it, the way it permeates a room and fills the spaces. I love how it ebbs and flows and how it can be a tangible thing - how you can move around inside it and it can move around inside you. And I love to talk about it, write about it, experience it.
