From the Bottom of My Broken Heart "It is over," he declared. Not a warble in his voice, mind you. I hung up without a sound leaving my lips. I didn't have the perfect lyrics yet.
Ellen "Jelly" McRaePublished 11 months ago in BeatA melody becomes a memory
Music can shape our thoughts and beliefs, but more importantly in the words of Eric Church “Funny how a melody, sounds like a memory”. I can pinpoint moments in my life according to an artist or a song. I think we all can.
1970s Radio Songs
No matter our ages, American childhoods almost always begin with the same songs: "Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star", "Itsy Bitsy Spider", and "I'm a Little Teapot". Soon, we graduate to Disney songs, like "When You Wish Upon a Star", and "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious". A child of the 1970s, I also learned songs from PBS television's Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and Sesame Street.

I am the person trapped in a love for one alone, running round and round for them until my feet lose their grip and I tumble with too much momentum, left to eat the dust I kicked while they speed on ahead.
Some Songs I Love
Livin’ on a Prayer by Bon Jovi: Not long after I got my driver’s license, I remember listening to this song on the radio on the way to school. This song always managed to put a smile on my face and filled me with energy and liveliness. It also has a good message about hope and perseverance. How can this song not be one of my favorites?

We all fall in love at different times and for different reasons. Sometimes we fall in love before we can fully comprehend what it means in our lives. Sometimes we are flat out in over our heads. The Fray captured that feeling perfectly, and their song Over My Head (Cable Car) is still one of my favorites.

Some songs speak to your heart and become your own personal playlist of your life's journey. When I think back to childhood, one song stands out and, to this day, makes me cry. It's a song of hope and believing in the impossible, but, more than that, it brings back memories from long ago when I was a small child. The song 'Rainbow Connection' came out the year I was born and I remember hearing my parents sing it often. It brings memories of when things were simple. When my parents were together and happy, for the most part, and our family was whole.

Life is ever-changing, an ever-moving, evolving, twisting, turning journey. In my 5 decades, I changed homes, schools, and jobs. I've changed my clothes, my hair colour, and my mind. Heck, I've even changed husbands.
To All The Pets I've Loved Before
It's hard for me to think back on my life without remembering the animals who kept me company throughout it all. So when Vocal challenged us to create a personalized soundtrack to our lives, my mind kept wandering to the small handful of pets I had the luxury of having. Rather than fight this idea, I decided to embrace it.
The Song that Broke the Cycle: Addicted! (And Other Helpful Tunes)
In 9th Grade Junior High, after a six-year hiatus, Rush, the Canadian trio titans of the progressive rock world, went on tour promoting their newest album, Vapor Trails. My entire family, extended and all, rushed off to see the live show in Salt Lake City, Utah. All except for me. I claimed I didn’t care much for Rush and stayed home to watch the younglings. What did I actually do? Turned on the electronic babysitter, slunk away to the computer, took to the internet, and watched porn, played video games, then watched some more porn. And more. When my family returned in band t-shirts with smiles and memories I realized I had missed out on something great. In truth, I loved Rush, especially their newest album.
