“Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.”
— Maya Angelou
Prompt: Compile a playlist of 10 tracks that represent you.
🎶 🎶 🎶
1. Feeling Good (Nina Simone and/or Michael Bublé):
“It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good”
2. Truly, Madly, Deeply– Savage Garden
3. Mr. Chow– Acoustic Alchemy (Contemporary instrumental and jazz band)
4. I Believe- Fantasia Barrino:
“Ever felt like you were dreaming
Just to find that you’re awake
And the magic that surrounds you
Can lift you up and guide you on your way
I can see it in the stars across the sky
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize
You see, I’ve waited all my life for this moment to arrive
And finally I believe”
5. Fly Like A Bird- Mariah Carey:
“Can we recover?
Will the world ever be
A place of peace and harmony
With no war and with no brutality?
If we loved each other
We would find victory
But in this harsh reality
Sometimes I’m so despondent
That I feel the need to…”
“Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now, Lord
Carry me high”
6. Smooth- Carlos Santana & Rob Thomas
7. Far Away– Kindred The Family Soul
8. Use Your Heart- SWV
“…Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes…”
9. Red Light Special- TLC ( What? I have a naughty mind sometimes. Lol.)
10. Lastly. Natural Mystic- Bob Marley
“Though I try to find the answer
To all the questions they ask
Though I know it’s impossible
To go living through the past
Don’t tell no lie
There’s a natural mystic
Blowing through the air
Can’t keep them down
If you listen carefully now you will hear
Such a natural mystic
Blowing through the air”
Lyrics are not my own, though the verses are my faves.
What songs you can relate to or represent you? I love to hear them.
