Soundtrack of Your Life Entry #6 Night Changes
Day 6 of "The Soundtrack of Your LifeOpen in new Window. challenge. *Smile*

Today's music recommendation is...
Night Changes by One Direction




I'm at the age where where I find myself resonating with songs that deal with growth and change. Night Changes is one of those songs that really captures those ideas. There is a little bit of a melancholy tone to it as it makes a listener realize that time can passes by really quickly. The dreams and hopes we set up in the past are gone before we know it. In the blink of an eye we find ourselves waking up one day discovering the window to accomplish ours goals has come and gone. If you are lucky you have accomplished the important ones but often there are goals unachieved that you've missed out on. In both cases, the listener is left reflecting on a past gone by.

The song isn't completely sad though. (I wouldn't have liked it if it was.) Instead it provides some reassurance. There are some things that don't have to change due to time. We control the core of who we are and the relationships we forged with other people in the past remain with us. The song doesn't explicitly state it but there is the subtle idea listening to it that every night leads into a new dawn and with a new dawn comes new hopes and dreams to fulfill.

It is a beautiful song... sweet, sad and comforting at the same time.
