Everybody hates Mondays. Not a lot of people like the accompaniment of rain. But when you live in a city like Vancouver you're most likely going to run into both at the same time. Sucks to say, I really wish I was at work right now to keep my mind from running on tangents...but along with it being Monday and along with it raining...I'm sick. What's more perfect for a sick day like this? Slow jams. My favorite. I used to help a friend with his blog on this genre specifically, but have since run dry with music posts. Slow jams are for the faint at heart, for the ones in love, for the ones who are broken, and for the ones feeling sexy. It's versatility in bringing up emotions is what, I think, makes it one of the most popular genres out there. Ultimately it's the lyrics that make a listener relate. Everyone feels love, lost, and longing(take that in whatever way you want it). And so, without further ado, this post is for all of you...
