Blog7: Inspiration_Bob Marley Ft. Lauryn Hill "Turn your lights down low"

I chose this song because of the smooth melody that it gives. I believe it’s expressing what real love it by taking a while to describe how it feels. Most songs I hear now move to fast and make it clear they only want one thing. I can admit that one thing is wanted here, but more is asked of the person. The line, “O let your love come shinning in, into our lives again….”is saying to me that you left at some point and you took away something that meant a lot to me and I need it back to move forward.  Another line, “Loving you is like a song I replay, every 3 minutes and 30 seconds of everyday, and every chorus is written for us to recite and beautiful melody of devotion every night….” Is expressing that for 3munites and 30 seconds of this song, it’s like the words are written just for me and whoever I want to the song to be dedicated to. It’s like going to church and when you are in the toughest times, it’s as if the sermon was written with you in mind. God himself is speaking through the pastor to let you know that every though you have troubles, as long as you believe, everything will be alright. This song for me is just like that. With the melody and words working together, it’s letting me and my significant other know that this is real and there is no other out there for me or you. Every word is an emotion from me and is given to you in a way for you to understand. Everyone receives it different and for me its poetry. I have known people to have the same feelings because it’s when you make new music for the future generation, there is still nothing compared to that back in the day jam that just knew exactly how you felt at that moment and at that time. I first heard this when I was little and felt the same then. I felt the same then and I feel the same now.
