Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek
there are some songs that will always be on your life’s soundtrack. the songs that you just need to listen to when you’e going through certain situations.
sometimes I miss drum corps… running around a football field in a bikini top and rolled-up soffee shorts… and being 115 lbs with a dangerously high risk of skin cancer… and I miss doing pilates/yoga/ballet exercise for at least a third of my day. When things were fun, and your only thought processes are about the next 24-count of drill.. and when dinner break is. You use up one bottle of sunscreen every 2 weeks, and you perform in front of thousands of people and go on national tours.
That’s what this song means to me. Drum Corps. the World Championship ring. learning how strong my body is, and what it means to be 1/135th responsible for every score the group gets. it was the time of my life, and changed me more than I ever expected.
….. and thinking about why “sewing machines” are mentioned in the song chorus
