So I’ve been listening to Duncan Sheik’s The Ghost in You
on auto repeat on my daily trek home from work. It seems I could not get enough
of it. I discovered this rendition by Duncan Sheik while searching for the mp3
of the original track by Counting Crows.
While listening to it, the nitty-gritty
ride home becomes a bit animated. My mind meanders off to an inculpable world
while my eyes remain transfixed at my reflection on the tinctured window opposite me. I
drop all my inhibitions and send all thoughts flying off like the disarray in
Seussville. Like a film in medias res, I create my very own music video in my
head unabashedly and with boldness I can never ever muster once I step out of that
world.
I am triumphant while it lasts, I smile inside. Who knew a song could whiff
magic like that. Me thinks, it’s a gift from God.
