For editing my last project, my song was "The Herald Song" by Ke$ha. It's not one of her more-known, you know, techno thingies, but it's full of angst. And so was my project, so it was perfect.
For this new project I'm starting, my new fave is "Waiting for the End" by Linkin Park. The angst?
Through the roof.
Here's the proof:
We say Yeah!
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there, (I love this image of holding on to something invisible, unable to let go)
'Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear (oh, the angst)
I know what it takes to move on, (do you??)
I know how it feels to lie, (powerful feeling)
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got (chillz. I haz them.)
What was left when that fire was gone?
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong (who hasn't felt this? Every runner-up on The Bachelor, that's for sure.)
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it's like moving on (and here's the real angst)
And I don't even know what kind of things I've said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So, picking up the pieces, now where to begin?
The hardest part of ending is starting again.
And dude, that's it. That's life. Relationships. Writing. Starting a new job. Everything.
The hardest part of ending is starting again.
Every time I hear this song, I can't help but think of my MC and the terrible things I'm about to do to them. The lyrics, the music, everything, just fits. It's "the one." Chill-worthy.
Have you ever just heard a song and gotten chills? Like, "This. THIS is it!"What song is it? What is it about that song makes it so perfect for your project?
