Song of the Day (Mrs. Potter's Lullaby) 10.04.13

Well, we've made it to October. Holy hell.

How did we make it here? Better yet - what am I going to be for Halloween?

But first, lets dive into the weekend with a good tune or two. This week, the song just feels right for the time of year that it is. Yes, sure, it's still warm here in LA, but you can tell it's becoming fall. It's breezier, the nights are colder, and grey clouds litter the morning sky. But most of all, it just feels like autumn. And there is just something about this song that is fitting for the changing weather. Oh right, and that it just always seems to apply itself somehow to my life whenever I listen to it. Most of us can connect to songs depending on our mood - as if they were written for us at the moment we were listening to them - but this song always feels like mine. Regardless of what is going on, I can turn it on and identify with something in the lyrics. Whether it be Fantasy Island, movies, being unhappy with something, the love for someone else - it just always hits close to home. Oh right, and it's a throwback jam from the 90's - so it has that going for it as well. Hopefully you enjoy it as much as I do. It's kind of a classic in my book. This is The Counting Crows' "Mrs. Potter's Lullaby."
