Wanted to write a separate post on each of these songs that moves me to a different plane. But that will take too long and the ode and my appreciation for these songs for helping me discover some of the different sides of me cannot wait.
2 songs per post
Please help me discover new music and songs that can be part of this series.
Music makes all the bad times easier and the good times better:) (cliche' but true)
High Hopes by Pink Floyd

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times
These 4 lines and the crescendo of this song always take me higher, it gives true meaning to the words psychedelic rock!
Gravity by John mayer

Oh I'll never know what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away
...
Oh twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like a one half could
It's wanting more
That's gonna send me to my knees
The depth of meaning explained in such simple words that can be universally understood. And the feeling of blues and vibes that the music sets you up while the words catch up to sweep you off your feet makes this song a great one.
