A Mood Change

Not as bad as a mood swing but still a fairly quick change. Until a few days ago I was in the mood to listen to a folk song in Hindi from an old 80s movie, by a singer named Reshma?. Since yesterday, I am in the mood to listen to Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam) and I have been listening to Black over and over again. So much passion in his singing, that it ignites the passion in you and as he sings the last lines from Black which goes...

"I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine"

..you too want to fall on your knees, throw up your hands, make a fist and scream from your heart-Yes! why, why, why!?!..

Phew! that was emotionally exhausting. Yes, you said it -drama queen indeed!

Its been rainy and windy since yesterday. Perhaps that explains the mood change.

i have 2 albums of pearl jam but i don't remember this song. Too much music. sometimes you don't pay attention to some really good ones. more over Pearl Jam is not on my iPaadoo. 8GB. i lost 2 8BG ipaadoos.
one of them had pearl jam. had converted dem to MP3s. i realise there is no point in stuffing all the music you have on the ipaadoo. You don't get to lissen to all of them. So i am happy that i lost 2 ipaadoos. the one i have is loaded with songs i really like.

one song can change your mood, or some picture or a phone call.

Yes Rauf-- a song, a picture, a phone call, a gesture, the weather..anything can change your mood. Mood is so fickle!

Hope you are enjoying Black :)
