Listening To : I Live by OneRepublic

Changing it up a bit today and sorry this isn't the music video- doesn't look like one is up yet.This song was played at my brother's graduation and it was one of those songs that I felt real- like it was something I really wanted to say and try to impart to my brother and hold onto myself as a anthem that I can carry with me. I particularly like the fact that the song acknowledges that life will have pain- because there is pain. If you handle it right and live fully- the pain won't destroy you but make you better (which while cliche it is a truth).Plus, I'm really into the slightly more acoustic sound with the strong drum beat that comes in. Listen to the full song through Spotify below- and then after the jump there is a little video where the band explains the story behind the story. :)
