Sound.

I am totally convinced that mankind would crumble apart without music. We cannot fathom how many functions music serves to keep our world intact. Music surmounts all barriers; whether they be racial, mental, or situational. It can match any emotion or event with its immense variety and depth of every feeling. It has certainly been there for me, always revealing itself in times of need, and I know its been there for you too.

Here is a list of a few songs (not in any sort of order) that have helped me keep my sanity:

1. Dig by Incubus
    This song has a really good message, thats applicable to almost everybody.

2. Soundtrack 2 My Life by Kid Cudi
    This guy has so much thought worked into his songs. Its almost like the modern version of blues.

3. Jumper by Third Eye Blind
    I wonder how many friendships this song has saved. Very inspiring.

4. I Miss You by Incubus
    I know I already have an Incubus song, but if you've ever lost somebody - you will appreciate this one.

5. Gravity by John Mayer
    He's really overplayed sometimes, but he's still good. Really like the mood of this song.

6. Breathing by Yellowcard
    A little whiny, but really like the mix of instrumentals this band offers.

7. Panic Prone by Chevelle
    One of my all time favorite songs, by my favorite band.

8. Clocks by Coldplay
    That one movie with Paul Rudd almost ruined this one for me, but it's super chill.

9. Hole In The Earth by Deftones
    This song is actually pretty heavy, but I like the ambient vocals. 

10. Under The Bridge by The Red Hot Chili Peppers
    Yet another of my all time favorite songs, by my second favorite band.

I kinda realized this list mostly consists of slower, melancholy songs, so don't think this is all I listen to. But someone asked me what song I think describes me the closest a few days ago. Although some points are off, and its true message hard to detect, All Hail The Heartbreaker by The Spill Canvas is the closest match.

I PROMISE no more whiny boo boo stuff tomorrow. Night.

  1. I'm a big fan of "Your hand in mine" by Explosions in the sky. Yes, I know that it is from Friday Night Lights, and as gay as it sounds every time I listen to it I like lose myself in the music, Idk what it is but I just can't think about anything else.
