Music Soothes This Savage...

I never was very good at remembering the artist’s name, the name of the song, or the song’s words. However play a song, and if I've heard it, and if I liked it, I will remember it... and all the emotions (usually good) it brings to mind.

Even songs that when you read the lyrics, alone, might seem to be depressing, when you play it, I find them uplifting.

An example of such a song released in 2000...

"Have A Cry" by Kina

    Feelin' kinda low

    Oh, and that's not the worst part

    I just got a home, yeah

    Gettin' old and still wanna be a star

    Yeah, I'm feelin' low

    But don't come run to my rescue

    Please don't come to preach

    Don't need no ******* happy speech

    Is it alright if I cry?

    Without no positive speeches

    Don't need no lessons on God

    Because I'm human, I got weakness

    Don't just say it's alright

    My life fell into ten pieces

    Don't just say it's fine

    Just let me have a cry

    I know you're tryin' to help me

    Can't you just listen to me sometimes?

    You can't always find the answers

    Everybody's faith ain't always high

    Yeah, I'm feelin' low

    So please just let me sulk

    There ain't nothin' you can say

    So don't come sing Amazing Grace

    There ain't nothin' you can do

    So don't come give your point of view

    There ain't nothin' you can say

    I'm only human, yeah

    Let me have a cry

    Just let me have a cry
