Music and dancing, are two ways the Muse feeds her soul. I have taken some time over the past week, in light of some tremendous emotional struggles, to reflect on both of these things... They do go hand in hand.
My dancing, my sexuality, and my emotional presence are all very much intertwined; so the music I listen to, must move me on every level. That almost sounds like I would be pretty picky, doesn’t it? I’m really not.... unless I want to dance. I like Metallica but I can’t really dance to them... my kind of dancing, anyway. I used to thrash around a lot like a little wild woman at concerts, though.
I made a playlist... a little melodramatic playlist... something that perpetuates my melancholy but also helps me grieve. I don’t know who else on here might be a Depeche Mode fan ... but ... there are several songs by them in this list. One that is pretty new and the lyrics just floor me... not to mention the song is sung by Martin Gore... who has this panty-soaking voice!

Oh little one
I will protect you
And surround you with my love
As well as any man can
As well as any man could
I will be there for you
Always
And when the black cloud rises
And the radiation falls
I will look you in the eye
And kiss you
And give you all my love
As well as any man can
As well as any man could
You are my eternal
Eternal love
