Song of the Day: Dance with my father again

Artist : Luther Vandross
Mood/Atmosphere: Sadness, longing, appreciation.
 
Released in 2003
 

 
 

 Dance with My Father was performed by American R&B-soul singer-songwriter Luther Vandross. It was released in 2003 .The album, especially its title track, was dedicated to Vandross' late father.
 
This song is filled with heartfelt emotion and makes you appreciate the love around you especially that from your parents.
 
I never really had a close relationship with my father, but my mother loves this song as it reminds her of her late father.
 
This song is just another example proving how music can capture emotions, and this song especially brings up childhood memories and pictures of the past.
 
It is quite an amazing song and should be appreciated as it cherishes moments in time.

Song of The Day : Love the way you lie (II)

 Artist: Rihanna
 
Mood/Atmosphere: Insecure, scared, relationship more from the female perspective.
 
Released in 2010



This song is an interesting an powerful song by Rihanna and also features Eminem,
It's beautiful because it describes an abusive relationship, and coming from someone that can say they have witnessed aspects of this song in relationships all around me, it is amazing how one song can signify all that emotion.

It was released in 2010 and was obviously the sequel to "Love the Way You Lie" , Rihanna is more expressive in this version and I must say that you can hear the passion in her voice.
The song also featured Eminem again, and we all know that a Track with Eminem's vocals must be pretty powerful.

I love this song and know that it should be appreciated in the deeper sense of the message.

Song of the day: I don't wanna know

Artist : Mario Winans
Mood/Atmosphere: Heavy hearted, sadness, betrayal.
 
Released in 2006
 
 
 


 
Today I witnessed something that made my heart a thousand times heavier, that feeling you get at the back of your throat when you realise that he had been lying all this time and you are not the only girl in the picture. Although knowledge is power, in this case I feel that ignorance is bliss and frankly, "I don't wanna know" . This song truly depicts how I am feeling at the moment. If you are somebody that has experienced this I am sure you know what this feels like. I quote Drake. "When a good thing goes bad, it's not the end of the world- it's just the end of the world that you had with one girl."
 
 
"I don't wanna know" is an amazing song, it was released in 2006 and it features P-Diddy. To me it is extremely heartfelt as I can hear the emotion in Mario's voice, and though some might be stronger than others it still hurts to a certain extent but how you handle it is the only thing that matters. Although it might seem as I am listening to depressing music, it gives me hope because I know that I am not alone and maybe one day the right person will walk into my life.

Song of the day : I'll stand by you



 
 
 
Artist: The Pretenders                        Released in 1994
Mood/Atmosphere: Empowers you to encourage others.


So was today was one of those days where you would offer someone your shoulder to cry on? Sometimes you could feel as if you are at a loss for words because the situation is something you have not experienced and do not know how to deal with. My advice to you would be to either quote the lyrics of this song to the person that needs to be cheered up , a dedication or simply just let them hear the lyrics for themselves.

"I'll Stand by You" is a 1994 song recorded by The Pretenders from their sixth studio album, Last of the independents.  It was written by Chrissie
Hynde in collaboration with Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg. The song is a power ballad that pledges love and faithful assistance in times of personal darkness. The lyrics of this song are both empowering and emotional, there have been a number of cover versions , and it was even performed on Glee, however there is no going wrong with the original. Music speaks volumes and every song has a connection to someone in this world, and this is an example of a song that gives people motivation to carry on with life.

Drizzy






Music's very own lyrical genius!  <3



This might sound like an obsession and maybe it is, but Aubrey Drake Graham truly gives me inspiration to live my life. Through every obstacle and every emotion. When I am sad, happy, angry or lack motivation every word in his songs speak to me. Earphones in, world turned off. Drizzy over everything, Drizzy on my mind. Comment and tell me what your favourite Drake song is! Please and Thank You!
