Song of the Moment LXII: Colbie Caillat’s “Realize”

I have been listening to my Top Songs 2024 playlist on Spotify for the past several days, and one of the songs from the playlist I have not blogged as my Song of the Moment is “Realize”, my favorite Colbie Caillat song. It was released in January 2008, but I only discovered it a year later. The song is about having romantic feelings for someone (a friend rather) and wishing for that someone to feel the same way.

If you just realize what I just realized
Then we’d be perfect for each other and we’d never find another
Just realize what I just realized
We’d never have to wonder if we missed out on each other now

Now let me be sappy while I listen to “Realize” and drink my Jack and Coke. Happy holidays.

Song of the Moment XIV: Odette Quesada’s “Friend of Mine”

In today’s post, let me simply share the ultimate song about unrequited love – something I can relate to.

You tell me about the love you’ve had
And I listen very eagerly
But deep inside you’ll never see
This feeling of emptiness
It makes me feel sad
But then again I’m glad
Odette Quesada’s “Friend of Mine”

Odette Quesada performs “Friend of Mine” on the Wish USA Bus last September 2020.

That is all.
