I really like the Goo Goo Dolls music. From when I first heard Iris, I loved Jonny Rzenik’s vocals. I got to see them live in 2006, I think it was, in London. It’s been years since I saw live music, and I miss it.
Music is a tonic for the soul, and as I write this, I’m listening to songs from Hairspray, which I watched twice over the past weekend when it was on the Show Must Go On YouTube from Andrew Lloyd Webber.
I just love the soul music era- it’s so upbeat, despite the struggles that African Americans were going through on a daily basis. I listened to The Four Tops in the car as a kid, as my parents loved their songs. Going Loco Down in Acapulco became the theme song to our family outings in my dad’s XR3i. I’m such an 80’s child 😉
I really digress what I was writing about at the start of this post, which is to say how I enjoy listening to The Goo Goo Dolls. This track, Better Days, sums up how I’m feeling right now.
And you ask me what I want this year,
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we’ll find better days.
Cause I don’t need boxes wrapped in strings,
And designer love and empty things,
Just a chance that maybe we’ll find better days.So take these words
And sing out loud
Cause everyone is forgiven now
Cause tonight’s the night the world begins again.
The Goo Goo Dolls
