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 LVIII: Linkin Park’s “In the End”

This post is a part of 14 Days of The Deranged Writer (2024).

3 days left before December 5, my birthday, and I’m back to having the birthday blues with a mix of frustration. Why? Normally I explain the cause of melancholy and frustration here on The Diary, but tonight I don’t feel like explaining at all. All I can tell is that I’m sad and frustrated and I think I will bring those feelings to my birthday itself. This is hopeless.

Speaking of hopeless, let me share my Song of the Moment: the perfect Linkin Park song about hopelessness and the band’s signature song, “In the End”.

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesn’t even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesn’t even matter

Linkin Park’s “In the End”

3 days left before my birthday, and I feel like this…

See you tomorrow.

Song of the Moment L: Linkin Park’s “Waiting for the End”

As I mentioned, I’m listening to all Linkin Park albums in chronological order. I’m done with the band’s 3rd studio album Minutes to Midnight last Thursday. Now I’m listening to their 4th studio album A Thousand Suns, and once again they are singing what I’m feeling – this time with “Waiting for the End”.

So, I’m picking up the pieces now where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again
