Search

4 words:
1) You
2) Hurt
3) Heart
4) Tired

When you punch any of these words into the playlist search engine you will find songs you love, forgot about, hate with a passion, never in your life heard of before, and then before you know it, you're lost, in and over your head with 100+ pages of 1,000-some songs and 1 1/2 hours go by and you realize all you have is a headache, memories, and everything and nothing to blog about. I didn't want to write about what I'm thinking because it's no longer helping me. I'm tired of not being over it and I'm over being tired of it. So, you find a song for me and I'll be inspired by it tomorrow.

    Oh Run, how could I forget about such a beautiful song? As for those listed before you, they crossed my mind. Although I was surprised about Paramore. I really wanted to like it since the title, For A Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic is interesting, but sadly it hasn't surpassed that. I already wrote one on Band of Horses so I'll save them again for another rainy day. Foo Fighters is a bit much for right now and the other ones, I'm not too familiar with so I'm going to have to give it a minute before I put it up on blast.

    Thanks for the boost with Run though. I needed it.

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.

Broken

"Paradise" - Coldplay It took a while for this song to affect me, but I guess a windy drive home through an obstacle course of devastating proportions and the sudden panic of having a "State of Emergency" warning flash within my quiet hometown can change things. A lot. I didn't sleep a single minute last night. Although this isn't anything new, it's new to me to want to sleep and not get it. It was unbelievably frightening to be alone in my room with the nite-lite busted and the wind at full speed...even worse when half the roof over my head flew to the ground with a thunderous thud bringing the rest of the sleepless city to its feet. We've seen the Santa Ana winds, but never at this magnitude. It moved cars and busted windows. It rattled fences and ripped gates apart. It knocked over trashcans and picked up patio furniture like it weighed nothing. In the morning when the dust settled just enough for the hazy sun to bring some light to the mayhem, w...

Love Is Not Blind

"Colorblind" - Counting Crows I originally had a Dave Matthews Band song in my head, but like always I'm bending the rules a little bit and going with what's in my heart. After all, I couldn't follow my last blog with something you didn't like, could I? That just wouldn't fit and this seems to do just that. This song reminds me of the movie Cruel Intentions . It's hard not to think of it. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's chemistry was so strong, especially in their steamy love scene with this song playing in the background, that any other memory pales in comparison. I always thought the lyrics were so simple and romantic, but it became even clearer here. There was no doubt about it. I knew instantly that they were a real life couple even before they announced it. Love is obvious. Acting can never really be this good unless two people have genuine feelings for each. Look at Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in The Notebook and Angelina Jolie ...
