laurenrocks's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- hush, she said to hush. chris grace. because you know what good music should sound like. and this is it. go. i saw marc again tonight but only for a few moments. he gave me his e-mail address and told me that he wanted my honest opinion about the album, and to e-mail him once i listened to it. the cd is on its second rotation so far, and it isn't leaving me speechless, but that isn't always a bad thing. i have so many thoughts swimming in my head. it is a beautifully mastered cross between 1. duncan sheik, 2. matchbox twenty, 3. better than ezra, and some darkness that i can't quite pinpoint... anyway, chris grace is definitely taking me to places emotionally that i either hadn't been taken to through a song, or it was bringing back memories of the things in my life that i couldn't quite put into words, or that didn't need to be put into words. the lyrics are relatable, and if there's a song where you can't put yourself in chris' shoes, he definitely makes you wish you could. you'll even long to feel his heartache just once, to love that completely, to be that blind and passionate and neck-deep in something that eventually ends and rips you apart. but there is one song where i didn't relate to chris, but to the woman he was singing about. how she would tell him how she felt about him, but only when he was asleep so that he wouldn't leave her. i used to do that to scott. i'd talk to him while he was asleep, and that's when i first told him i loved him. i started out doing that and eventually worked up to telling him when he was awake. so please check out chris grace because you love good music. and i'm handing this good music over to you. i'm passing it along. and isn't that what music is all about? sharing it with others? i think it is. 11:35 p.m. - 08.14.03 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
