I LIKE THIS SONG: 31.5

So I forgot to mention it, but yesterday was the first day of BEDA. So it doesn't really count for me because I already blog every day. But Lo and some friends are doing a special BEDA thing where every day has a theme. I might do that, instead of having themed weeks and all that, but we'll see. I was going to have a super awesome theme for next week but I forgot what it was. I know it was awesome though because I was really excited and I was like "I have to write this down so I'll remember." But then I was like "No, this idea is too awesome. I won't forget." And then I did. Because I'm cool like that...

Anyways. We're still going strong on British Week (at least I've enjoyed all the songs so far) and today I'm coming at you with something verrry special. Today's theme for Lo et al's BEDA post, happens to be music. I don't really know what I'm supposed to do with that, given that this is a music blog. At least, despite my crazy daily ramblings, that's how it started. So what can I say about music? Other than um, I love it. I've always loves music's ability to bring people together when they may have nothing else in common. When I was younger, I once based an entire friendship on a mutual love of Savage Garden. And we became great friends, for however long a time. I only remember playing Zelda at her birthday party one year. (Yes, we had other things in common. But we started with Savage Garden and went from there.)

Sometimes music is like having friends and family with you 24/7. If you're upset and you feel like crying over a break-up, there's a song about it. If you're mourning the loss of a loved one, there's a song about it. If you're incredibly happy and your friends are tired of hearing about your awesome life, the Beach Boys will be there for you. It's just stuff like that. If you have music, you are never truly alone, because someone always understands. And it can make you realize that even if your situation is different with a few details, all the stories together mean someone gets it. Which is why I don't get depression. But anyways. I'm going to stop my disjointed ramble because I've never been able to express my love for music with words. I always come off sounding like an idiot, as you can clearly tell. But enough about that.

Now that it's British Week, I am going to put off Gossip Girl tomorrow/today and watch Little Britain. I'll let you know what I think on my next post.

Today's song is by WHAM. Because who does not love WHAM? I like writing it in all capitals. I would totally use Wake Me Up but I vaguely remember using that for 80s week. Instead I'm going to go with... I'm Your Man.
