Journal Five -Henry

Music is very important to me and it always has been. I listen to music a lot through out my day, whenever I'm driving, working, or when I need to cool down and relax. I enjoy searching and finding new songs to listen to.  I think the music that means the most to me are songs or artists that portray a story or message to the listener. One group that I will never get tired of hearing is Tame Impala. If Ive had a stressful or busy day, ill crank up some tame impala and become stress free. I see tame impala as more of a stress reliever than just a band because they help me relax and gather myself. My favorite song is called Elephant, its about a man feeling as powerful and as important as an elephant in the jungle. My favorite part of Elephant is "Cause he doesn't like it looking like he looks back" This lyric means that the person in the song doesn't like living or seeing into the past but instead only looks forward into the future. This song especially helps me to be more head strong and motivated, if I'm feeling down or uneasy.

Tame Impala was the first band that I really started following.  
Their  psychedelic  music is right up my alley,
and their music speaks about being strong and rising up, 

when you are weak or down on your luck.
