Look, i am no-one to review any song. In fact i believe no-one is anyone to review any song! Every song is a result of precious time spent and effort put by an individual or group of them. So, it gives us no right to criticize the efforts. But, what we can do is like them! if we don't, just leave it there. Simple.
So, here is one song that 'Avid Reader' liked (i assume) and asked me to share it with you guys. Firstly, Avid Reader, Good choice! Secondly, err... there is no secondly. So, here goes:
Jar of Hearts- Christina Perry ( http://www2.mp3raid.com/search/download-mp3/20219731/jar_of_hearts.html )
All right, all right. This is a sad song and is a break-up song and what not. But, it is an exceptionally well written and composed song too. No clutter of instruments. Just the piano and the vocals (Plus the back up vocals by Christina herself). The lyrics are well thought of and are very sad (or should i say sorrowful? Euphemism?). If you have gone through a bad phase of life, (Not necessarily a break-up, but that would be more apt) then you will connect with the song instantly. But, people who are leading a blissful life will like it too! so, please go ahead and listen to it. Forced Detachment or Fake Hatred is evident from the song lines. after all, how can we come to hate something we have loved with all our life? right?
What makes this song special is the Neutral tone. Although the emotions are high in the song, the way Christina sings it makes you feel as though she is numb from the pain of Loss and does not have any energy to feel the emotions. However, two of the most powerful lines i have ever come across comes from this song:

"Learn to live Half Alive"
almost like- अब तो आदत सी है मुझको ऐसे जीने मैं... (ab to aadat si hai mujhko aise jeene mein.)
"You're gonna catch a cold, from the ice inside your soul"
So, there you go. A very, very good song. 4.5 on 5. Avid Reader, hope you liked it.
Thanks,
Cheers!
