Day 27: A song that you wish you could play
I’ve posted this “song” before and have commented on it already so I don’t have much else to say. A difficult Chopin piece of which I’ve taught myself about half of so far but the last half awaits me and my cursing when I screw up. I’m working on it though…
Day 28: A song that makes you feel guilty
This is probably the most difficult one I’ve had to pick so far, just because I had NO idea of any song that makes me feel guilty. I think part of the reason I couldn’t think of one was because the songs I mainly listen to make me sad or are sad and songs that I’d listen to when I’m sad, but none that make me feel guilty. And why guilty? Out of all the emotions out there, why choose a song that makes you feel guilty? I didn’t realize there were supposed to be a lot of songs for this category, but apparently so, or else they might’ve asked me for a song that makes me feel like constipated or scared of heights.
Anyway, the best I could do was Vivian Green’s take on the jazz standard “Love For Sale” by Cole Porter. I’ve listened to a few version of this song and I had seen De-lovely (but have forgotten most of it since it was kind of a meh movie) but didn’t remember her singing “Love For Sale” in the film at all. It’s a darker, more melancholic take on the song, I think, and as much as I am open about discussing most of everything in my life, the song reminds me of a period in my life that I’m certainly not proud of. Judging by the lyrics, I’m sure you can come to some conclusion about what that might be.
