Musical Stories

When I hear certain lyrics within a song, it makes me think of a very precise and direct story attached to it. The words can just stand alone and paint a vivid picture in my mind. As you know, I love all kinds of music but of course, my favorite is hip hop/r&b.

Also with my OCD on movie quotes and music, I like a song or an artist into a physical hole. I have played Lloyd Banks "I don't deserve you" at least 437 times. Not only is the video done very well (not creative-like as in anything that Kanye does but still explains a story and has good visuals) but it also has some memorable lines that have conjured some great ideas for short stories...

Such as:

"I think I love you" (the way he says it is like a question almost)
"Here's your heart before I break it"
"See me and you have a magnet in between, that keeps pulling me closer"



And I absolutely love when she calls him and he has to think about everything before answering...that flashback was done nicely! It almost made him look like he was sad about it...um, knowing he wasn't because his hand didn't hesitate to delete her when the other girls opened the door...
