Perfectly Normal

I came across this gem whilst looking for listening content for my students in the English classes I teach and  we absolutely loved it.  It lovely embraces the Romantic Comedy genre and subverts some of  its tropes in a raucous film of obsession and finding love in the oddest and most improper of places.

Cassie finally found the love of her life, someone who understands her and her issues. He is smart, single, articulate, got a great career and he is an amazing listener. He also happens to be her therapist.

If that isn’t a recipe for disaster then nothing is. Add to mix that the therapist is an unwilling participant in this seduction and has his own issues played out in the night streets of this city makes sure that hilarity ensues.

Worth your 9 minutes and I’m looking forward to Writer/Director/Producer Jim McMahon’s other work.

One of the best music videos out there. Great story, great visuals and a cracking beat. I listen to this more often than not before almost  every great night I’ve had since it came out. Its like once I listen to it I also go on some epic quest and there is always a story to tell after.

Lyrics

When the night becomes the day
They’re sending you far away
So so far away
When everything starts to fade
You don’t have to be afraid
No you don’t have to be afraid
Take my hand and
Reload
This is free love
That’s what we are made of
Yes we are, are, are
Reload
This is real love
That’s what we are made of
Yes we are, are, are

Take my hand and
Reload
This is free love
That’s what we are made of
Yes we are, are, are

When you wanna get off the ground
The gravity pulls you down
Gravity pulls you down

And when you feel out of place
You don’t have to be afraid
No you don’t have to be afraid
Take my hand and
Reload
This is free love
That’s what we are made of
Yes we are, are, are
Reload
This is real love
That’s what we are made of
Yes we are, are, are

Take my hand and
Reload
This is free love
That’s what we are made of
Yes we are, are, are
Reload
This is free love
That’s what we are made of
Yes we are, are, are

Dare You – Hardwell ft Matthew Koma

It’s Monday, the first day of the week and the first day of the last month of year. It has been a long year and we are just about at the end of the tunnel. Rather than wait for the New Year for new year’s resolutions and grasp that which, seize the day now. Time waits for no man.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We’re a million lonely people
All together on this needle, in the sky;
Afraid of heights.
And your dreams were made illegal
By the laws of lesser evil
We call life.
But not tonight.

[Pre-chorus/Chorus]
I dare you to love;
I dare you to cry;
I dare you to run;
I dare you to try.
I dare you to fall,
And lay on the ground.
I dare you to feel;
I dare you to be here now

[Verse 2]
You’re an outline of a vision
That you had when we were children,
Yesterday;
You watch it fade.
Let your heart be your religion –
Let it break you out of this prison
You became.
It’s not too late.

[Pre-chorus/Chorus]
I dare you to love
I dare you to cry;
I dare you to run;
I dare you to try;
I dare you to fall,
And lay on the ground.
I dare you to feel;
I dare you to be here now

I dare you…
I dare you…
