Music Monday: Sing


Push play before reading.

As summer comes to a close and a preview of the coming fall air can be felt on the walk out of my apartment building toward my car each morning, the soundtrack in my head regularly turns to the sounds of Travis.  As soon as I open the door to step outside and feel the crisp, cool air, my mental soundtrack begins playing the intro to the song "Sing".  Perhaps the sweeping wind-like sound of the opening few moments of the song reminds me of the fall breeze.  I can't quite put my finger on it.

My friends and family probably get tired of this, but I have a habit of making comments like, "If there's ever a movie made about my life, I want this song to be included."  (It's not like I actually expect a movie to be made about me.  I'm not that interesting.  I guess it's just my way of saying that a band's music has meant a great deal to me.  But then again, maybe, just maybe, this blog will take off and become so popular that a movie actually is made about my life.  Don't worry, you'll be able to say you were reading me way back before anyone else!  And moving on...)

Give Travis a listen if you haven't already.  Your life will be better off because of it.  And if by the slim chance you don't actually like their music, try having a food fight like the one above.  That's guaranteed to make your life more enjoyable.
