Anonanimal - Andrew Bird

Your dreams are my dreams. We’re brought into this world to be together and share all that is beautiful in our collective lives. We’re here to indulge in the dalliances of our tiny little hearts. Everyday I realize even more that the entire purpose of our lives is to connect with one another, because that’s how we evolved into becoming the greatest animal to grace this earth. In the end we all just want to be merry, nothing else is really more important.

“I will become this animal perfectly adapted to the music halls.”

You Woke Me Up! - Andrew Bird

Oh how beautiful are the soft and delicate melodies of Andrew Bird. It reminds me of exploring the forest, going to areas of it that I have never explored before filled with a sense of wonder. When seeing everything lights up before your eyes. The flowers blooming in vibrant color, an aura of beauty surrounding them. The giant willow trees, sturdy and strong, slowly breathing oxygen into this world. The maple leaves gently ruffling in the breeze, swirling down to the ground as if it were waltzing with the air. Nature is an orchestra, everything plays in perfect harmony, working as a whole to create a single unit of beauty.

“I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars.” -Walt Whitman

Armchairs - Andrew Bird

Andrew Bird is a master of composing beautiful pieces of music that have this gentle fluidity. His songs always put me in a melancholic mood as time always becomes a blur, everything goes down to a level playing field, where all linearity is gone and everything becomes a crucial variable once again.

“Time’s a crooked bow.”

Take My Hand And I’ll Show You The Stars (8tracks Playlist)

Romance is an adventure. Every single second spent being romantically involved with someone is a new frontier that brings new promise. Sometimes I think of that one girl I care oh so very much for and find myself wanting to ask her to take my hand so I can show her the stars. I want her to hold my hand as I take her to places she has never been to. I want to show her new beautiful sights more beautiful than all of the world’s painted masterpieces. I want to show her new experiences that will spice up her life. At times I want to take that one special girl and take her on the adventure of a lifetime, an adventure that would rock her world, an adventure in which she has never been taken to before. Meeting that special someone is the sweetest thing in the world, every moment is to be cherished, every second is meant to be grateful for. Love is the adventure of a lifetime. So I shall ask you, please take my hand and let me show you the stars.
