my end of year song, 2005
So I really have to make my choice. What IS going to be my End of Year song?
It’s a tough one this year. Do I choose for the song that brings back memories of the summer, the simple song with the lovely guitar riff near the end… or do I choose for the one song that makes me remember how it feels to be loved? Do I go for simple and happy, or do I go for deep and profound?
I’m sitting down right now to listen to the both of them, in a Derek kind of way. And I think I’ve made my choice already. Even though the song is horribly long and it doesn’t even have any lyrics, I’m going to choose for:
Explosions in the Sky – “The Only Moment We Were Alone”.
Sitting in the train back from work the other day I was listening to this song and I was so awestruck – I just couldn’t help thinking that if someone would have shot a video of our wedding and it needed some accompanying music to go with it, this song would be it. Closing my eyes I can so clearly see it all again. This song makes me remember what it feels like to be loved.
And I think that’s why this song will represent 2005 for me.

Guys … have much fun tonight I’d say!! Too bad I can’t be there but I can’t divide myself into two sadly
Anyhow … could you do me a favor? Could you play my end of year song even though I am not there? Of course it is Question! by SOAD – the song which helped me through the awful days in september.
*smooch*
