WELCOME TO MY NEW BLOG, HARD TO IMAGINE.I'm Niccole- a die-hard, old-school Pearl Jam fan & this is to be a collection of my inner-most thoughts & feelings on my all time favorite band & their music. I also hope to post some of my favorite quotes, pictures, shows & more.
Let me start by saying that my life really wouldn't be the same without Pearl Jam's music- the gut-wrenching lyrics... the catchy riffs & bass lines... the raw emotion that I can so easily relate to.
Now, I can't honestly say whether my life would be any more difficult than it is or not, but what I can tell you for sure is that unlike people, the collective talents of Ed, Stone, Mike, & Jeff have always been there for me when I needed it most. Their songs simply speak to me, & when I've had a hard day, I'll sit back with my headphones on full blast with Save You, All Those Yesterdays or Present Tense playing. Or hell, all of No Code will do, for that matter.
But when I really think about it, I suppose that it's not just Pearl Jam that has been a constant friend, but all music. You see, I don't believe that people can show true unconditional love for one another quite as easily as we can for our music. No matter how many songs you listen to, you're favorites will still be there for you... and always will. And even when you find new favorites, you're old ones will still have a place in your heart. We, as people, don't generally turn our backs on music as easily as we do on one another. True, that we may move on- but the music is still there.
Anyways, those are my thoughts for this evening. I've given the boys the night off & have got some Pink Floyd going instead. A wise woman once said that variety is the spice of life, and I personally find this to be very true. While it's true that I listen to Pearl Jam 3/4 of the time, I do still love the classic tunes that I grew up on. They'll always be in my heart- like the most true friend that you could ever find. Good night all- may the music be with you... forever & ever amen.
