I should have called in sick for work today. I had the thought this morning but decided not to because, truthfully, I had no reason to call in other than my gut saying that it was going to be a rough day. My gut was right and this morning has already been a super manic Monday and it has me a bit concerned about what the rest of the day will bring. Thankfully, I have some amazing music to help cope with the craziness starting with “Leaves” from Birds?
The second single from Birds?’s brand new album ‘We Will Never Know, and That’s Okay,’ “Leaves” is a calming, almost meditative kind of song, but with no shortage of emotional power. It’s a math-inspired kind of track but with a backdrop that is nothing short of emo/alt-rock perfection. In true Birds? form, this track hits you like a ton of bricks but that ton of bricks can take on whatever form you’re in need of today. For me, this song wrapped around me like the perfect safety blanket but I could see, on a maybe more high-energy, high-ADHD kind of day, where this song could help bring me down to earth. I could also see this song making me feel immense emotions on a day when feeling anything feels impossible. Long story short, “Leaves” is the kind of song that I can’t give you a lot of information on because, depending on your mood, you’re going to take this song a million different ways. All I care is that you take the time to check it out and go on whatever journey Birds? has in store for you today.
