Music Always Has Your Back


To ease the pain of life's everyday problems, some people use ice cream. Some people use shopping. But me, I use music. I'm sure many people use music like me. Sometimes when your mad you will be listening to something with a badass beat, or some screaming and swearing. When your in love you may listen to the song that was playing in the grocery store when you saw the guy getting chocolate milk with the dark brown hair. Or it could be the song they were playing at the club when you made out with that short brown chick wearing the pink stilettos in the corner. What I'm trying to say is that for every mood that you are feeling, there is a song out there to help. People can't always be there for you, but music can. You can always count on music to be the life of the party, or to ease the pain of a recent tragedy. 

Lately, I have been in a bad mood, a dark place you could say. I felt alone, I felt guilty, I felt terrible. I needed a song or songs to help me through all this. Songs that can relate to my problems. It took me about 20 seconds to think of the perfect artist - Dominique Fricot. His music is so quiet but powerful, and his lyrics are so strong and meaningful. You can feel what emotion he is trying to convey in every song. His smooth vocals are a delight to listen to, and his songs are on repeat for hours. Whenever I'm down in the dumps, I usually listen to 'Haunted By Love' or 'Strange Lady'. I really enjoy his music and I am sure you will too! His new EP 'If Baby Could Walk' is out soon, if you want to learn more, go check Dominique out now! http://dominiquefricot.com/

  1. I really love this, Nathan! The way that music impacts your life and everybody else's is a huge part of who we are as a person! I have been following your blog since day one, and the one with you and your best friend brought me to tears. I can see that you don't leave anything else and that you are 100% telling the truth and how you really feel. All I wanted was a raw, truthful blog that meant something and would be well written and well done. Nathan, that is your blog. Thank you for sharing your life to the thousands of us readers and I hope to read more in the future. Don't stop writing, young man! You have a bright future ahead of you.
