I know there are other S’s I can go with who are more well known and commercially popular. Every once and a while a song just grabs you by the proverbial <insert anatomy part of your choosing> though. “Chasing Cars” is that song for me. I cry every time I hear it. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
“Grey’s Anatomy” introduced me to this song. And we all know that show packs an emotional punch. Unless you’re stone then maybe not so much. I have a friend who had to quit watching because the stories became real and took such a powerful toll on her. Me? I continue to watch because I LIKE being an emotional mess. I totally admit and own that about myself. I mean c’mon, there has to be something about my quirks that I like or else I’d change. Right??
Therapist: You think maybe you like being upset and worried?
Me: Well duh? of course!
But what-evhs. I yam who I yam ala Popeye.

As always, more to come.
Snow Patrol is one of my favorites, too, for a variety of reasons. They have a relatively new album out (last year). I play cuts off it over and over . . . Not necessarily the cheeriest of songs. (What If This Is All the Love You’ll Ever Get; Don’t Give In; to name just two.)

Cheery or not, I gravitate to songs that affect me emotionally. I am going to look those two up.

PS “Empress” is a bit more bouncy, for Irish emo that is. 🙂
