It’s February 2nd, 2024; Here’s another ‘rekindle a love’ and as I listen to this song I wonder, does true love ever fade? I’ve written before that the feelings of love run deep. And love is a sort of phenomenon that ‘Science’ has yet to prove how it happens, though I guess we know why–to propagate life on the planet.

Does true love fade?

Here’s the thirty-third new music post for 2024, as I consistently offer you one of our original songs. Similar to You’ll Come Running, which I wrote about on https://sheilamurrey.net/2024/01/30/january-30th-a-rock-song-of-returning-love/, this is a song with a story about a man waiting on his love to return. She’s late, and he’s wondering if she’s changed her mind, got tied up in traffic, or whatnot.

Love is hard to figure out

This song takes another look at people who used to be in love or in a relationship and why they want to rekindle that love and rebuild their relationship. Or do you get something else from this? I am curious if I am too close to the subject matter. I know several people who have returned to a former love–I did.

Sometimes people return to the “comfortable past,” as Dr. Joe Dispenza talks about because, well, it’s comfortable! It’s known. It’s familiar. And the unknown is often more scary than the past–even if the past was hurtful or chaotic. Most of us prefer our “predictable future” based on our comfortable past.

In my meme, I said I am glad to see it–when karma comes back around to bite someone on the rear. The flip side of that coin is that sometimes I wish I didn’t see it. I wish I wasn’t right. I’d almost rather be wrong than to tell someone, “I told you so.” Weird, huh?

After sitting with my words from the other day, about that couple we met at the restaurant whose date ended badly, I may have been too harsh. Yes, I can admit when I am wrong. I only judged that situation (and that superficial couple) because the woman had pulled me into the situation a bit (by asking me to walk her to her car). Richard didn’t think I should have walked her to her car, by the way, citing safety issues. He knew I’d gotten up and walked out but hadn’t realized why or what she’d told me–until we discussed it the next day. You see? I’m still learning–even at my age.

Yes, I love a LOT of different kinds of music. This is not even all the songs I like, but most of the songs that pop back into my mind depending upon my mood. Or songs representative of a whole album I used to listen to. I’d like to put these in order from when I first heard them or to represent periods of my life, but I don’t know if I’ll ever get around to that. They are not necessarily in the order of preference.

I listened to the whole Rush 2112 album over and over when I was a teen, for example. I also used to listen to Aerosmith, Steppenwolf, The Moody Blues, The Guess Who, Styx, and Supertramp albums over and over. Eventually, when I was married to my second husband, I bought ALL of the Aerosmith CDs. So, don’t think because I only placed two of their songs on my list that meant I didn’t like them as much because I love Aerosmith. But I nearly loved Styx and Queen as much. And The Steve Miller Band, Molly Hatchet, and so many others.

A few albums I loved I have forgotten who they were. They had been bargain basement albums and they influenced my singing but since they never hit the big time, now, over 50 years later, I’ve simply forgotten their names. And Richard can testify to the fact that I have looked for them. Old music shops. Google. You name it. I’ve looked. One was a black soul singer, similar to Billie Holiday, but though I loved her too, I couldn’t find the singer who influenced me. When I first heard Tina Turner she reminded me of her and so Tina took her place as a voice I wanted to emulate. Later, I felt the same about Tracy Chapman and thus, I sang several of her songs when I would go out and sing karaoke. Both of my kids remember that. I would take them out with me on occasion and they loved it–though I didn’t like taking them to bars they were older teenagers and my friends all thought it was fine. After all, we lived in a beach party town. But that’s another story too.

I also have a shorter playlist there too called, My Dance Break playlist and it is a list of my favorite Adam Cunningham songs of ours–yes, our originals that we hired Adam to sing for us from Beaird Studios in Nashville, TN.
