It has been almost two years since my last song of the day. There have been many songs of many days since then. I guess I was just too selfish to share them with you. Apologies.
Sometimes I fall in love with a song because of one line. It might be what it says, how it sounds, and/or how it makes me feel. Some men just have a way of saying/singing certain words that just… works. (And, yeah, it’s always men. Male voices do things to me that no female voice can.)
This song got me the first time I heard it, and I’ve had to listen to it hundreds more times since. One line gives me goosebumps. I have no explanation. It just happens every time.

Where’s My Love | SYML
Cold bones, yeah, that’s my love
She hides away, like a ghost
Ooh, does she know that we bleed the same?
Ooh, don’t wanna cry but I break that way
Cold sheets, oh, where’s my love?
I am searching high, I’m searching low in the night
Ooh, does she know that we bleed the same?
Ooh, don’t wanna cry but I break that way
Did she run away? Did she run away? I don’t know
If she ran away, if she ran away, come back home
Just come home
I got a fear, oh, in my blood
She was carried up into the clouds high above
Ooh, If you bled, I bleed the same
Ooh, If you’re scared, I’m on my way
Did you run away? Did you run away? I don’t need to know
But if you ran away, if you ran away, come back home
Just come home

I have this recurring fantasy of a sexy man singing to me. It’s a song that’s meaningful and sweet, but also kind of hot. One of these men will do nicely. I’m going to pretend they’re both amazing singers with deep, sexy voices… because of course they are.
p.s. — I think I want to rename “song of the day”. It’s boring. Of course, I can’t think of anything good. Does this mean I am also boring?
p.p.s. — Now that I’ve opened the music can of worms, all hell might break loose. Suddenly, I have, like, fifty songs I want to share.
p.p.s. — Oh my god! I think I might have a name. Although it will sound stupid to every one but me! It’s kind of an inside joke… between me and a girl I haven’t been friends with for a very long time. Hm. I’ll have to think about it.
I like his voice too. Not to the same degree, mind you, but I like it nonetheless. Now I’m curious to see the new name. 🤔

And I’m curious to make a decision. That’s not my strong suit. Decision making… nope… not good at that. Also, if I use the one I have in mind, don’t get too excited. It’ll probably just seem silly (and disappointing). I mean, it is silly, but…

I probably shouldn’t have gotten everyone so excited… the name will surely be a letdown!

Regardless how you think the name will be received, I’m sure at least one of us will be imagining what that inside joke might be when we do finally get to see what you’ve chosen. The theater of the mind is a playground.

Very poetic. It’s just silly really. But maybe I’ll use it just because it’s silly.
