Day 13 → A band or artist that has gotten you through some tough ass days. (write a letter.)

– um, not sure how to write a letter on this so I’ll just talk about the subject…

Mariah Carey just downright knows how to sing it! Through many of my life’s trials she’s been the one singing straight from my heart. When I went through my first heartbreak, when my marriage was on the rocks, it seems like Mariah just knows. I’d listen to her music over and over and over again. During my first real heartbreak I actually won her Rainbow CD off the radio and listened to it OVER AND OVER AND OVER again.

There’s something about music that is borderline magical. It has a way of doing things to your inner soul that regular words just can’t do. It also has this way of hitting you with a ton of bricks when you hear a song from your past. It brings back all of those emotions and feelings that you once had back when that song was significant to your life.

I love that about music and couldn’t fathom a life without music.
