Seated on the floor, I'm surrounded by books and lecture notes, skirts and t-shirts and bags, ticket stubs and receipts, rolls of film and memories packed in old shoe boxes. Accompanied by a mug of strong coffee and songs I'll forget. My attention span is wavering. I'm doing a bit of everything but accomplishing nothing in particular. If that makes any sense? Has that happened to you? It might just be me making up excuses for being lazy again.
Deep breath. Probably not the best way to make a comeback in terms of reviving this blog, but.. Daniela Andrade finally released her first EP! Bummed I missed out on the pre-order and special goodies. But glad there's finally a proper good quality version of her songs instead of a Youtube home-recording version. Nights that have seen me lie wide awake staring at the ceiling, have been accompanied by her songs. Especially on days I'm just so tired and any hint of noise is just.. not a good idea. Can't choose a favorite cover, there are quite a few I love. But here's an original that I remember covering, in the wee hours of a winter morning sometime early last year. Stayed up to learn it cause the lyrics hit deep then. Got so caught up with it, it was almost therapy. Ended up sleeping with my guitar in hand. Haha.
