It was so surreal that it felt like a dream. And i'll tell you, it wouldn't be the first time I dreamed about him.
His melodic voice paired with the gentle strumming and picking of his guitar created a sound that can only be described as pure awesomeness.
"I have two exes...so I've got two albums" oh and did I mention that he was also FUNNY AS HECK?
among the beautifully written songs that fell down on you like rain as you walk through the streets, one hand in an umbrella and the other linked in someone else's - were humorous anecdotes, a candid view into his past relationships and an insight to the "only girl he's ever loved".
right now, I cannot think of a more perfect moment. and, although being pressed up against the railing, at times, proved painful, it was worth it.
The most impacting part, I must say, was his description of the song "no envy, no fear". He explained that he used to see artists and look at them in envy. He wished that one day people would pay to come see him play like people did with these artists. He was basically describing my life to me. But, the way to go about it is not to be envious, but inspired. And that's just what I was - envious. and that's just what i'll try to be - inspired.
some are reaching, few are there
wandering from a heros chair
some are scared to fly so high
well this is how we have to try
have no envy and no fear
have no envy
