#TunesdayTuesdayHop – …So I Decided To Write

The theme for this week’s #TunesdayTuesdayHop is definitely one I had to take a moment to think about. It wa fun and a bit nostalgic too. Being raised in a very disciplined Christian home I didn’t get a chance to truly listen to anything other than Gospel or Christian music until I was in my late teens. One of the first artist I fell in love with was Aaliyah.

We all need a little music in our lives. A good song can answer a question, soothe the soul and provide an escape. It can recall a memory in the most vivid detail and evoke the most intense feelings.
 
 “Music is the great uniter. An incredible force. Something that people who differ on everything and anything else can have in common.” -Sarah Dessen
We created Tunesday Tuesday to do just that, bring people together through music.
 
Every Monday night at 9pm the link up will go live at The Patchwork Paisley, Drinking the Whole Bottle, StructureInAnUnstructuredLife, and MrsTeeLoveLifeLaughter. We will designate a theme, and hope that you will share a song that embodies said theme for you. Post the video for the song, an audio clip, the lyrics- however you want to do it. Then, write a little something about why this song captures the week’s theme and link up your post here with us!

TunesdayTuesdayHop - Take Me Back

My first pick is Aaliyah’s 4 Page Letter. I was that same girl. The one who could always express ever emotion in detail through her writing but when it came to face to face…not so much. This song always takes me right back to those days with me and my journal and how I would pour out my heart.

Read This Too  5 On Friday!

Mama Always Told Me To “Be Careful Who I Love”
And Daddy Always Told Me, “Make Sure Hes Right”
I Always Had My Eyes, On This One Particular Guy
I Was Too Shy, So I Decided To Write

I’m Sending Him A 4 Page Letter,
And I Enclosed It With A Kiss.
And When I Write Him He Better, Get It On Time.
Im Sending Him A 4 Page Letter,
And I Enclosed It With A Kiss.
And When I Write Him He Better, Get It On Time.

Do you have a song that brings you back to a time in your life with a simple intro or beat?

Share it with us this week…
