my mom raised me as a young single mom in the 90s and thusly we shared her music taste. i remember thinking this song was the most beautiful song in the world. we had an old VW Golf with a cd player and The Colour And The Shape was always in there. whenever "Monkey Wrench" inevitably came on the radio, i'd ask my mom if we could listen to "the short song on the cd" which is what i called "Doll". over 25 years later i am still head over heels in love with this song/album, it's a total comfort for me.
i am like i am today because when i was 10-12 years old, i was going iceskating on saturdays afternoons and this song was always played in my local iceskating place
It's a cover from Bob Marley's Waiting in Vain , but it holds a special place in my heart because my brother would always play reggae songs on his acoustic guitar and as a lil kid that loved and adored music it was so fun to have jam sessions with him, he would often jam out and then let me express whatever song lyrics come to mind hehe, it was definitely a core moment for me. :)
…not ☹️.
For whatever reason I keep posting and then deleting my recs immediately. I’ve gotten shy on here. I used to be so bold. I don’t know what happened !!!
I’m currently in the back seat of my friend’s car listening to their future plans. It’s lowkey terrifying me. However….take this as your sign that you don’t have to know what you want. You’re not alone!!!
