Hope you're good?
"Flowers in the window" by Travis is a song I can distinctly remember from growing up, but I completely forgot about for a while. It was only when I was walking down the street one day and a busker was singing it that I remembered what a brilliant song it is.
The video threw me a little as the theme is primarily pregnancy, but trying to put my analysis head on, I think it represents growth and change. Like growing up and the loved ones around you witnessing it. Although this is just my interpretation, it could be about something different for all I know, so I wouldn't pay too much attention...
We actually have got flowers in the window and I'm surprised at how much watching something grow cheers me up.
I was curious last year and decided to plant an apple pip from inside the apple I'd just eaten. Don't ask me why, think I was bored and actually wondered what would happen. To my amazement it actually grew and now I have little seedlings that I don't know what to do with...
Anyone want an apple tree? I'm your gal.
I'm glad to find that's it's not just me who loves this song, when released in 2002 it reached 18th place in the UK singles charts. From my research I'm interested to find that Paul McCartney helped to finish the ending, after hearing it and liking it.
Anyway, uploading all this music got me thinking about how much songs, actually (like physically) impact my life. So here's the typical scenario;
I walk into a shop that looks pretty interesting from the outside... Don't actually know why as I'm pretty much always skint... Still I walk in...Think "woah it's too expensive and/or what am I doing in here? Pretty sure I don't need cooking utensils?"... Go to leave but realise a good song's just come on...Think "yeah. I can hover".
Just shows what a riveting life I do lead ;)
Have a good day,
