"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 and Brad Pitt in Mr. and Mrs. Smith. If it's there, everyone will notice it. 
The only couple that showed true intimacy, but never got together in real life is Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler.
I never quite understood this, but it seems Drew picks the wrong guys so that may have something to do with it. I know I'm just rambling, but this is what I'm thinking about so this is what I had to write. Bottom line, I just like seeing something scripted come to life. It gives me hope that even something so unpredictable as love could use a little pre-planning before it "just happens."
Lyrics:
I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready I am
Taffy stuck, tongue tied
Stuttered shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready, I am...fine
I am covered in skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded, and unfolded, and unfolding, I am
Colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready, I am...fine
I am.... fine
I am fine
