Music, Writing, and Rambling
May. 21st, 2012 12:05 pmI don't know how they do it, but Stream of Passion seems to have a knack to encapsulate how my imagination perfectly in their songs. Granted, pretty much every band I enjoy listening to can do that, but Stream of Passion seems to do it the most accurately. This song puts me in mind of a story I began mulling over in 2006 (same time I first got into Star Trek TOS), but dropped, because the direction it was going was scaring me.
But then, this song, along with a few from Evanescence, brought everything back in a rush. Now I've promised my muse I'll work on the story eventually. (Emphasis on eventually.) Speaking of writing . . . my notebook's calling me.
But, first, note to self: remember to take off fake engagement ring before church evening service. It serves its purpose warding old men off at work, but it's totally different ballgame in the sanctuary. LOL.
When I first heard this song, I was in love with it before the first line of the lyrics was over. Not only is the vocalist's voice beautiful and the melody haunting, but the lyrics are like a heart-song for anybody who likes to withdraw into their imagination. (For me, that's pretty much a 24/7 urge. Screw modern reality. I'm going to read Austen/Tolkien/Dickens . . .)
