So recently I began to shift from centring solely on the vintage and Old Hollywood spectrum. I began to listen to songs outside of what I usually listened to--being oldies and such. I have decided that this is a good thing. I am simply broadening my horizons whilst keeping in touch with my deeply personal "in the heart forever and inescapable" favourites. So here we go...no films this week as I haven't been watching as much but music as always since it is to me my life:

"Une Autre Saison" by Josef Salvat: I really like how this one is in French although it isn't by a French artist...He is Australian. I has good vibes and in the MV--shows descriptions of various characters and actions in French. It also has this lost and in love but not advisable feeling that I identify with a lot.

"Hiding My Heart" by Adele: This song has been resonating with me quite a lot. It isn't very new nor is it an oldie of course. However, it contains lyrics alongside this very touching Adele signature vibe and voice that gives me a sense of calm and relatability. Like the lyrics in this song--I often feel as though I have to hide a lot about myself from others as often times I fear that revealing too much may be weird for others.

"Le Soleil Noir" by Barbara

"Mon Enfance" by Barbara

Back to the OLDER!! Here I included two sings by Barbara as these two songs have in particular been my anthems of these past few weeks--that is to say that I cannot stop listening to these songs--nor am tired of them as easily.

I feel that these two songs contain such a bittersweet melody of loneliness yet wisdom and reflection--things I value and feel to do often...

"Après un Rêve" composed by Gariel Fauré

The melody and feeling this classical piece gives me is a sense of calm, understanding and belonging... It understands and helps me elaborate how and why I dream a lot--what I dream of and this sense of loneliness I keep on bringing up to myself. The slow yet deep emotion felt every single day.
