Today's song, not suprisingly, is another Dan Mangan masterpiece. The show was absolutely amazing, and this song in particular really, REALLY touched me last night. During concerts, I feel a deeper connection to the musician and literally FEEL where they may have been coming from in writing their song...was Dan once a robot? What did he face in following his artistic dream?
We got to sing along to this one and add our own musicality to the mix. One of my favourite parts about audience sing-alongs is listening to those urban strangers around you- some struggling to reach notes, others expertly adding to the melody. All of us coming from our own spaces in the city to unite in this song- quite magical.
A gentle (or not so gentle) reminder to see where we are being robotic in life- and to not waste our waking hours. And those robots wasting waking hours- they need love too. :)
Remember: time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time. Glad you had a great time at the show. Another fine entry, friend!
