Throwback Thursday: Konstantine

Music runs my life.  And I don't mean that in the way that most people talk about their love for music.  No, I mean I get lost without music playing in the background of my daily life.  I always have a song playing in my head, or have a song that can perfectly describe any moment from my life.  I look to music to better describe my feelings and trust me, as of recently, a lot of songs are PERFECT for how life is going recently.

Anyway, I was listening to mix CD's I made back in high school and the early college days before I got an Ipod.  And I found a song that I realized was probably my favorite song of all time.  Something Corporate's "Konstantine".  I don't know why it is my favorite song, because to be honest, it can be kinda depressing.  But who doesn't love just the piano and Andrew's voice.  It's magical. 

Honestly, I think part of the reason I'm in love with this song is because it's about love that can't get it right.  It's about a person who is scared of the world that she dreamed while growing up isn't all it's cracked up to be and ending up being alone instead of having that person to be with.  Mind you, this is my interpretation of the song.  Maybe I really like it because I'm afraid the dreams I had when I was younger are not my dreams now.  Don't get me wrong, I love life.  But when I was six I thought I was going to be in a completely different space in my life.

So this post is for everyone who wants to hear a beautiful song....even if it's nine minutes long.  It's for all the people who like to make wishes at 11:11.  It's for the people who still have those dreams, even if they had changed.  It's for the people who have been in love when the days lasted forever.  I hope you enjoy.
