An Ending/Hear Me Out












Brian Eno : An Ending


Frou Frou : Hear Me Out
"I refuse to believe that it's only me feeling."




I'm posting two songs, because the background music in each of them sound very similar. If you've ever seen the movie "Traffic" (if you haven't, you definitely should watch it), then you probably remember that very simple yet powerful song that played at the very end of the movie, during the little league baseball game. I have always remembered this movie as not only an amazing movie about drugs and how they impact every single one of our lives, but I also remember it as "that movie with that amazing song during the end."


A couple of months ago I heard a song by Frou Frou that had background music that reminded me alot of the song from Traffic. I love both of these songs, so I decided to post each of them. 




I'm usually not a fan of songs with no vocals, but it's hard not to fall in love with "An Ending." It's one of those songs that you turn on during a late night drive, and all of your thoughts pour out of you one by one, easing your entire being. Imagine the most beautiful place you've ever seen.... then add this song into the background, and you have your own little peaceful, perfect place. 


As most of you know, my little perfect place is somewhere tucked away in Tennessee... and I am SO happy to say that I will be revisiting that beautiful place in 23 days with my boyfriend! I remember the first time we went there and it was seriously a 10 hour drive, but it was probably one of my favorite memories with him. We left super late at night and drove until the morning. We had to of played almost every single Radiohead song..A Perfect Circle...Tool...and managed to watch Fear and Loathing on his dvd player in his old truck that he used to have. Well, since he was driving, I guess it was mostly me, but I was still wrapped tight in his arms the entire time. I was kinda worried about how long the drive was, and how this was going to be our first "road trip" together, but to this day it is somewhere my mind travels when life isn't going so great. It was one of those happy moments when you realized, truly, nothing else mattered. One of my favorite quotes was said by Daphne Rose Kingma, "In the end, nothing we do or say in this lifetime will matter as much as the way we have loved one another" ....And I couldn't have loved him more at that moment in time.

On that note, I hope everyone is living a life that genuinely makes them happy. If not, I'd suggest you change that before it's too late. We all deserve pure happiness.. every single weird one of us.
