Will Johnson is making me cry.
Sometimes I just need to cry and cry and cry, not because life is terrible or anything is wrong other than what it always wrong – just because. I don’t try to pretend there’s nothing to be sad about, but the weight of good in my life always has the scales tipped ridiculously in my favor. One day, I am sure, I will have plenty to cry about – you cannot love this deeply and not expect to pay in tears, millions of them – but now, as tough as things are comparatively, life’s pretty good.
Still.
Sometimes, I just need to cry. I let sad songs goad me into it, and i sob and hiccup my silly self to pieces. Today the featured performer is Will Johnson and his fabulous bands. Thank you, Will, for songs like From This I Will Awake and Just To Know What You’ve Been Dreaming. You make it so very easy to release all this pointless sadness.
