So a couple of months ago I went on Radio 6 live on air to talk about my 'BioRhythms'.
You choose three tracks to describe a different feeling that the song creates in you.
1. Physical Feeling- Can't help but move ya body ygm
2. Emotional Feeling- evokes emotions and makes you feel
3. Intellectual Feeling- Makes you think and stimulates your mind
So mine were:
Physical -
Sprawl II by Arcade Fire- It always makes me dance and jig around no matter where I am. I love some of the words in it like 'quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock'. It makes me feel carefree and happy. Even though the song is upbeat the words are profound and I like that combination.
Emotional-
Breathe me by Sia- This gets me every time. Whenever I am feeling heartbreak or loss or just generally fragile this song speaks to me on every level. I first listened to it when I was around 14 and I'm now 25 and I keep coming back to it. It's like having a friend that you can always rely on to get you. It also captures this feeling of vulnerability in me whereby despite growing up and transitioning to adulthood, I still just need to be taken care of.
Intellectual-
Pale Blue Eyes by Velvet Underground- This song is just heaven. It's so slow and undemanding to listen to, and in that vain it allows me space in my head to just think and reflect and it also makes me feel calm. There is not much music that I can listen to whilst working or revising but this is one of them.
I'd be so interested, on Soppy Sunday- to find out what your guys 3 Biorhythm tracks would be!
And if you have the confidence you should e-mail them to Radio 6 because talking about it on there was a really good experience.
