It was a busy day in the newsroom not too long ago. I was going on one hours worth of sleep and I had work at the end of the school day. Needless to say, I was extremely exhausted. My friend and EIC was kind enough to drive me to work once we left the newsroom. I wouldn't have made it to work on time had I taken the metro.
He has fantastic taste in music. Most of the stuff he plays in the newsroom, I find myself turning around, do a double take and ask "wtf is this goodness?!" I had one of those moments during the drive to my work and I had to Shazaam this goodness. I love music. LOVE music! After getting the song title and artist, I largely forgot about it. My Shazaam tag list is stupid long.
Last night I found myself restless and couldn't sleep as you could probably tell from my last entry which was done in the early am hours of this morning. I needed something to listen to to keep me at ease and I remember the song I heard in my friend's car and how beautiful it was so I opened up Shazaam and proceeded to buy the song on iTunes. After listening to it the first time, I found the calm I sought and fell asleep not long after after putting the song on repeat.
As I'm writing this on my way to work, on the bus, this song is playing on repeat through my headphones. There are only a couple of songs that I consider life changing songs. I'm proud to add this one to my list...
