Its been about 18 years now since I last saw Colorado, where I spent almost a decade of my life, my early childhood that is, and since then major changes have become of me and naturally of all my childhood friends, some I caught up with recently, and some still stay a distant memory I yearn to learn more about.
Two days ago, I came across one of those childhood friends through Facebook, the notorious social networking application that I now regard as a means of reuniting long lost friends, distant acquaintences and ofcourse the casual friends you make along the way. The childhood friend I came across was one I considered as kin and do till this day.
After a message or two expressing warm feelings and regret life split us apart all these years, I picked up a link that apparently was to a myspace.com profile, where I ever so eagerly started reading and smiling at as I went on, in a way trying to recompensate for all the lost years that had came between us, then the music started, she was an artist. I haven't expressed my passion for music before, I always intended to through a music section I have been planning on building for all the music lovers out there.
I don't know if the music I heard would have had the impact it did on me, if it had not been so close to the heart, made by a personal friend of mine, but friend or no friend, Manya has more talent than I have experienced in mainstream music for quite some time, she and her band ever so delicately capture the sound of sorrow and hope in their songs, which I can only describe as 'touches the sole'.
I don't know if this blog will have a music review section in the future, but for now, I thought of giving anyone who reads this, a present of music, I personally find intoxicating, and hope everyone who listens to it, will experience the same.
