When Love Doesn't Make Sense

3/24/2018

I am generally not world's biggest fan of smooth jazz music, but there has been this one song I have loved for many years called "Bueno Funk" by Peter White.

Something was catchy about it for me--
​the melody, the tempo...

​Here it is for you:
This was a song that I had uploaded onto a picture collage back in high school, and even my younger siblings can still recall the tune.

Now for some reason, there was a moment when I let an off-hand comment by a friend diminish my love for this song, but after hearing a live jam version this morning, something has been rekindled and reaffirmed for me. 
​(And wow, the seamless quotes of other songs!)


Here's that version:
​
What my friend had said was something like,

     "hey-- that song sounds like the music
       you hear in the background
       on the weather channel!"


and for some reason, that felt like a diss and I thought to myself, oh.. the weather channel? How lame...


The lesson here? On the surface it may be something like:

     "music labeled as 'background music'
       is actually really important for
       creating a vibe or environment 
       that someone actually wants
       to stay in for a while."


On the deeper level, perhaps something more like,

    
"Don't be afraid to love what you love,
      even if it doesn't make sense.
      Do use discernment, AND
      your body knows what it loves."


Or
​      "Don't let your own likes and tastes
       be negated by the opinions of others."


or simply...

Cheers!
