Well I'm thinking of doing tags and I thought it'd be fun! I'm not into makeup or brands or gadgets or any of the cool youtube tags. I will only share my monthly interests of music, movies, and occasionally books.
Okay, for February, I cannot get my head out of this beautiful piece by Norah Jones. I've known this song for quite some time from my father's collection, but only now I can truly appreciate it. I've never considered myself a die-hard romantic type of person. Most of the YA books, movies, and songs are either too superficial or too diabetic for me. Story slash confession time! So to be honest, I don't feel love the way people do, never crush on somebody I just met. Sometimes I wonder if I'm some sort of asexual person. However, I fell in love everyday with the way people laugh, their sparkly eyes, the way they pet a cat or help out strangers. Things like that are attractive to me, and it does make me smile. But relationships never go anywhere for me. I never got hit by a wave of overwhelming love/crush all my life.
But I still think I'm a romantic, it's just that my taste for romance is different than most people. It has little to do with things on the surface like getting in a relationship, being asked to the dance with outrageous proposal by a charming jock, getting big cute surprise on your birthday, etc. My taste for romance is extreme. Either it's twisted, complicated, deep, or very simple and soft. This song is what my heart would say if it can speak, on its peaceful state. This is my kind of romance. Soft and simple. No surprises. No fancy video with expensive cars and beautiful hair and melting smile. Just pack our things and go, both of us, somewhere safe from everyone we know. Start over peacefully.
(pay attention to the lyrics, lie down and relax, don't rush. listen and it will drift you to your nicest sleep ever)
