Girl at the Rock Shows

Today is a good day, but just like everyone else out there, my mental health is a constant rollercoaster, and I will go through waves where, no matter how good the concerts are, I just feel sad. Thankfully, right now is not one of those times, but hearing a song that reminds me that, when those times do strike, I am not alone, is bringing me all of the comfort in the world, and I can not thank Ringpop! enough for that.

“Sick Of Being Sad!” is pop-punk-perfection through and through. I mean, even the song title should tell you just how cliche this song is, but I don’t mean that in a bad way. Sure, this song is infectiously bouncy and the type of song that makes you want to be in a sold-out crowd moshing along to this track while getting lost in a crowd of like-minded people, but that’s not what really hooked me here. What really got me were the lyrics. They are raw. The word choice isn’t complicated, and the message is easy to hear. We all get down in the dumps sometimes (and sometimes for no reason), but at the end of the tunnel is that moment when you declare that you are “Sick Of Being Sad!” It’s a good reminder that, even when everything is dark storm clouds and pessimism, there is still a light– you just have to be ready to see it.
