Soul and blues always seem to sing away my frustrations. there's a sorrow to Percy Sledge and Solomon Burke that carries not the victimhood of country but the full weight of knowing you have caused your own problems to add to what was already there. When I hear their voices, their ability to understand such pain soothes my own. Those voices remember the beauty in the world, no matter what troubles surround us. songs continue to play, clouds still pass over my head, shielding me from that oh so bright sun my eyes just can't handle. Play it again for me, your deep bass is a pair of arms wrapped around me, saying, I know you've done wrong, but you can right it again, I believe in you and will pass my hope and confidence to you. Let me hear the passion and the grit in your voice, the knowledge that life is hard, and the only real hope is in each other. yes, warm me again.
