This post will be a little different than other posts on this blog. A few days ago, I stumbled upon something that really caught my attention and I decided to just do it! It was from the 1D site, telling all bloggers to write about their 'best song ever' because of their new single (coming out on July 20th). They will post the best entries on their site :)
I have a blog, I love writing AND I have a song that takes me down memory lane, so why not?!
Here is what I sent in:
My best
song ever is 'No One' by Alicia Keys. When I was twelve, I heard this song for
the first time whilst in class. We were practicing for our school musical and
needed to get our voices warmed up for all the songs we were going to be
rehearsing that day. My teacher told us she had a 'challenging song' but our
class (consisting of 15 boys and 10 girls) took it on. After singing it a few
times, it actually sounded good! (And we had fun singing it) We used this song
every time to warm up and we even sang it at our last performance. It became
'our' song.
This is my
best song EVER, because in this year the whole group became one, and all small cliques
were gone. There was no more bullying each other, and everybody accepted each
other. This song reminds me of all the fun we had in that year, such as field trips or watching movies at someone's house. At the end of the year our
teacher hosted a BBQ, and even though we didn't have school anymore and summer
had already started, we sang that song all night! It also reminds me of some of
the not so fun things we had to deal with that year, e.g. a mother of a friend
of mine had to go to jail because she was involved in a crime. This really
brought us together, and we supported her and helped her with everything she
needed.
It brings
me back to a year filled with laughter, joy, friendship and being able to relax
when school was stressful.
Let me know in the comments below what your 'best song ever' is!
