You know those songs that just speak to you? That you can physically hear the passion pouring out of their souls, even if you can't see them? Or you can see them without hearing anything, but feel their fervor? Or they may sing in a language that you don't speak, or play a style of which you're not familiar? But still, you are able to connect with the music?
That's what I love about music.
Today I was reminded of all the ways I can feel music by listening to Jeff Buckley.
I've heard a saying, "the goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will."
As much as it pains me, I know Jeff Buckley died. But, when I feel his music, I am reminded that his music lives on, and it makes me want to create something so great that it will live on after I go, too.
"Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong.."
