Musicality Monday 6.10

Good morning, good evening, good whatever it is to you.

Welcome to the first of many "Music Mondays"
I'm not really sure what this really means...
or even what I want it to mean,
But here's what it is right now:

I'm going to introduce you to my favorite
1...2...or possibly 3
song(s) of the week.

I might write more about the song than just posting the video.
I might not. 
 (I'll do whatever the heck I want)

So this first song isn't a new song in my life.
It's the kind of song that you dance to with the lights dimmed, 
the kind of dancing where you throw your head back and let the song consume your heart.
The song that your stomach turns when you listen to it,
but sometimes it just fits.


I didn't like this next song the first time I heard it.
Or the second time.
or third.
Honestly I still don't know how I feel about it,
but for whatever reason I find myself humming it
and it's hard to dispute her unique voice


What do you think?
What are your favorite songs right now?

identity

I have 3 blogs.
yeah. 3.
t.h.r.e.e.

I have this one, which about 4 people read
(shout out to my faithful readers!)
Bunkkbeds.
And then one more (it's a secret)

This blog is where I get on and write whatever. 
I write about missing my mom. 
I write about my cousin.
Sometimes the posts are funny,
Sometimes they're dumb.
They usually have something to do with music.
The point is... This blog will never make you cry,
and never tell you much more than you already know.

Bunkkbeds is different...
there are 5 authors
and our identities are secret. 
The idea behind that is to help create a false sense of security. 
Ya know... allowing us to say what we want,
creating a rough layer of a "secret identity"

And then I have one more.
I have a fake name on that one,
and everyone I mention in that blog also has a fake name. 
That blog is gut-wrenching-ly-honest.
No one that I know personally knows the address to this blog,
nor ever will.

The reason I bring all this up is because I find this fascinating,
That the blog that people know it's me,
Hillary Ivie,
this blog doesn't share a whole lot of information that I don't talk about anyway,
and the less my identity is known...
the more open I become.
Interesting isn't it?

It's like that line from 
"Perks of Being a Wallflower"
where Charlie turns to Sam and says

"do you ever think, that if people knew how crazy you really were that no one would ever talk to you?"

yes. That's exactly what I think.
