My song for the day

[RickyFitts]

I've been listening to so much music recently, I swear I'm addicted. I always had a love affair with music, but I've had phases in the last few turbulent, trying years when I just fell out of love with it, had no desire for it - and a part of me felt so sad about it. As I'm slowly healing, though, I'm rediscovering my love for it - and I find myself wanting to share the music that stirs my soul with other people, the way my friends and lovers introduced me  to music I would come to love deeply.

In that spirit, my first choice is going to be a song that was shared with me by one of the most beautiful people I ever met, a wonderful Texan woman called Zulabelle - she introduced me to so much music, and I swear she never shared a song with me that I didn't absolutely adore:

First verse of the song:

Some say love is a burning thing
That it makes a fiery ring
Oh but I know love as a fading thing
Just as fickle as a feather in a stream
See, honey, I saw love,
You see it came to me
It puts its face up to my face so I could see
Yeah then I saw love disfigure me
Into something I am not recognizing

 

Zulabelle posted this on a forum we both frequented after our intensely loving relationship had fizzled. 

Even when she was heartbroken, she was beautiful...

Sounds cool.

@Preety_India Thanks!

I'm listening to so much music at the moment that it's hard to pick just one, but this is the one I'm feeling at the moment, bit of a change of pace from the last one:

I'd love to know who dreamt up that video, and what exactly they were smoking at the time

Ah man, I told myself I'd limit myself to one song a day, but this one's just come on and I have to share it - David Gilmour's guitar-playing speaks to my soul like no other, and I just love his voice, too:

God, how I love Florence Welch  She's a force of nature and her passion and forcefulness intimidates me a bit sometimes, but it's so alluring at the same time
