Broken Chair
Filed Under Album Picks | 5 Comments
I heard this song tonight when a Google Chrome commercial came on. Even though I have DVR there will always be some commercials that I end up watching. This was one that I could not miss and I am so glad I didn’t. It made me cry, laugh and I fell head over heels in love with the song accompanying the very touching video. I also fell in love with the rest of the album, it is ever so lovely. Link to the video here.
Broken Chair – Chris and Thomas
Land of Sea 2006 (Defend Music)
You breathe, you learn, you lose.
You take, you break, you choose.
And as, you learn, and cry.
You do, your best, and try.And as, the days, go by.
It makes you, wonder why.
You try so hard, so hard.
To mend what’s bound to fall apartOoh maybe it’s time
To let it go
Ooh maybe it’s time
For taking it slowOoh maybe it’s time, time, time
For anything at all
Time, time, time, to let it all fall
Where it mayAnd as, the world, goes on.
You try, to walk, and sing along.
And hope, some things, will stay.
And every tune that you play.Ooh maybe it’s time
To let it go
Ooh maybe it’s time
For taking it slowOoh maybe it’s time, time, time
For anything at all
Time, time, time, to let it all fall
Where it may
Ooh…
Ooh…And as, your life, goes on.
You deal with, what comes along.
Some friends, they come, and stay.
Some leave and, go their way.Ooh…
Ooh…

I have been having some computer issues, I think this laptop is starting to take a turn for the worse. Which is not really a surprise as I think it is just about 6 years old, that is like 95 in human years! Anyways… This was my post from yesterday, edited just a tad. :-)
I love the way Katie Herzig belts these words… “I’m not even close to where I want to be”. I know this feeling so well it gets to be overwhelming at times… At one point I thought I would have kids by 30, I am almost 28 and not even married. But you know I look around at old friends from high school and some of them are married and already have kids and I know right now that is totally not where I want to be… I am not ready for kids, I still have so much I want to see and do. I want to travel, get my scuba license, adopt my own rescue dog and maybe even go to grad school.
I can relate to this song so well though and I love her for it, I love the emotion she puts into her music, the way in which she expresses so much passion in each and every one of her songs. She was recently featured on the Season Finale of Grey’s Anatomy with Matthew Perryman Jones, also highly recommended.

p.s. Check out the interview with Sam Mendes where he talks about the film Away We Go and how the movie is primarily about 2 people who are just getting their shit together in their thirties. Ain’t It Cool
