Day 2 of "The Soundtrack of Your Life" challenge. Today's song is I Follow Rivers by Lykke Li It is very rare that I would add a song upon instant listen to this list. More often than not... I have heard the music for it playing somewhere in the past and get a reminded of it recently when it was either playing in the background of a store, commercial, television show or Youtube video which I have been watching. It usually leads me to google some of its lyrics upon my next visit to Youtube. Such is the case with "I follow rivers". I think I heard it in a commercial originally but I didn't add it until I heard it again recently this month. I think I was watching a Youtube video where it was playing in the background and thought it sounded really nice. This is another trance mix. It has a great staccato like beat. The song seems to fit with its title. I can picture a coursing river listening to it. It is a great juxtaposition of wild and controlled. I find myself thinking of white water rafting where it is chaotic but flows in one direction. It is like you are following a stream. There is also a little bit of romantic feel to this song too as the singer seems to be mentioning someone she cares about. For some reason I can't help thinking of another song "I will Follow you" when I am listening to this as well. I guess it makes sense. Though they sound completely different, they do share similar lyrics. - |
