A Song That Feels Like Spring

A lot of different covers of this song. This woman was born in France, raised in Connecticut, lives in Montreal, does songs in both English and French. I’ve spent a lot of time in Paris, so this reminds me of a couple of springs there.

 
Tomorrow is a tough day for me. I’ll probably talk a little about it with my song post.
Having a hard time wording this prompt. I want to focus on mental health, but I really don’t want any depressing or pessimistic songs about it.
If you know positive/hopeful songs about mental health, please share one of them. Otherwise, just share a song that makes you feel good when you need it.

Day 18: A song with an uplifting effect on or a positive message about mental health
 
Day 17: A song that feels like Spring

Up in this part of the US, spring is one of those things where it means finally, after 5 months or more, opening the fucking windows again. It meant sundresses and skirts finally coming back out. Finally getting back outside to practice and play, and do all the things. And there's just a...vibe that it means to very middle of the road, boring white folks like me. So here, nothing represents that more than this.

There's no truly appropriate reaction to go with this, but I'm sending hugs. Take good care of yourself.

I've told this story before. My favorite book is Emma Bull's War for the Oaks, one of the first, if not the first, urban fantasy, which has a rock and roll singer get drafted against her will into the war between the Seelie and Unseelie Courts in modern Minneapolis. The city is as much a character in the book as any person. And being the book goblin I am, I went on a vacation based around my favorite book. I wanted to see some of the places first hand, and one of the main locations is the legendary First Avenue, one of the greatest rock and roll venues in the US. I got there in the early evening on a Tuesday, I think (weekends were way too crowded). It was slow, and I got a table, a two-top in the Mainfloor with no problems, and settled in to see where the climactic battle in the book took place. I grabbed dinner and took notes, annotating a copy of the novel, and was having the geeky time of my life. There was a live band scheduled to play that night with a wacky name I don’t remember. I wasn’t there to pay attention to the band -- I was absorbed with Eddie and the Fey. Well, the band came out with these wild outfits and huge glasses and hats. A roadie comes out with someone wrapped in blankets with a huge knit hat covering most of his face, wheeled out on a hand truck. Interesting. They hand him a guitar, and the opening riff of "When Doves Cry" screams out. As the roadie walks off, he pulled off the hat and it was fucking Prince.

He was working on things for a new tour, and so he and a few of his band would show up at clubs and play under a pile of weird names. It was very minimalist (I had seen him with his full road show back in 85). Within ten minutes, the place was jammed, throat to elbow. It was one of the most amazing shows I have ever seen, and I had a table to do so.

Prince is only mentioned twice in the book, my favorite being:

“Maybe. All I know is, this kid’s cuter than Prince when he wants to be.”
“No one is cuter than Prince.”

…but I still end up humming this song when I read it. He performed it with just piano and minimal drums. I am in a mood, so I found the version from Muppets Tonight, which, for me at least, single-handedly justified that show's existence. It fits one of the Purple One's sweetest songs.

I loved this because I love the idea of positive mental health songs. I have some challenges in that, so focusing on healthy is incredibly healthy for me as well.

For what it is worth, I am also thinking positive thoughts for you.

💕 💕 💕 💕 Positive songs that you can relate to, can mean a world of difference... I hope that somewhere in the sea of songs that'll pop up today with this prompt, you find one that is quintessentially you! 💕

I've talked before about how T&S' music helped me through my formative years, their ideas about body positivity, sexuality, drug use, and relationships all spoke to me on a cellular level.

Their album Hey, I'm Just Like You (2019) is filled re-recordings of songs they wrote while they were teens, but never published. Every single track feels like a page from my book. I love it to death.

Day 18: A song with an uplifting effect on or a positive message about mental health
Oofah.. now we're hitting close to home.
Most of the mental health songs I know and love are more of the "I feel crazy and I'm gonna scream about it" variety. And I don't have a lot of patience for shallow positivity. But this song is both positive and hits real to me.

Day 18: A song with an uplifting effect on or a positive message about mental health

(Screamsinging in the car- windows closed for the benefit of the drivers around me)

“the perception that divides you from her
is a lie
for some reason you never asked why
this is not a black and white world
you can't afford to believe in your side
this is not a black and white world
to be alive
I say the colors must swirl
and I believe
that maybe today
we will all get to appreciate
the beauty of gray”
