30 day song challenge 9/30

Not much blabbering from me today; once again I am sick. Coughing and all. I rarely get a cough, usually when I get head colds, my nose gets stuffed. But this time, it’s different I guess… I cannot afford to get sick now… My next two to three weeks are way too busy at work!

Anyway… Why are we here? Not to read about my health, but to hear the 9th song of the challenge.

Day 9

A song that makes you happy

Gilbert Montagné – on va s’aimer

Obviously, this is a French song. It’s from the year I was born (1983) and whenever I hear it, I turn up the volume, dance and sing along. It makes me happy and I think a big part of that is because it is also very cheesy. I am not a bad-ass. I am not strong, I am not special in any way and I am not a music snob. I like songs that make me react. I like music that makes me smile and I like music that makes me cry – and I am not ashamed to admit to that. You see, I used to be edgier when I was younger. Or I wanted to be. Now I am realizing that I am me and that I don’t owe an explanation to anyone why I am who I am. I only need to answer to myself. In theory. Because I still want to be and feel loved. I want to be and feel cared for once in a while too. As it is, I take care of the people I love and I think that makes them forget that I need a hug sometimes too. The above song is not a substitute for a hug, but it makes me feel good anyway.

It’s never too late to join in on the fun. Tell me, which songs or bands or artists make you happy?

Same place tomorrow? Do we have a date? Have a happy Saturday ❤️
