mellow love.

Bon Iver- Blindsided

Sarah Blasko- Woman by the Well
(you really ought to check out the album version of this song as well, which is what I originally fell in love with.  justsoyaknow.)

Here are a couple of mellowlove songs.  The kinds of songs I fall for when Ian is off and away on his filming endeavors.  The Bon Iver reminds me of Rexburg for whatever reason.  Probably the line "I crouch like a crow, contrast in the snow."  The crows in contrast to the winters there are eerie and beautiful.  Who knew I'd ever miss Rexburg?  I find I do at times though.  I mean, it was our own newlywed world away from everything.  Who wouldn't miss that?  I discovered the Sarah Blasko song when I was in Tokyo and was brought to small tears for my Ian being away.  I love that simple: "I just want you around."  Not to mention the beautiful imagery that comes about from the lullaby.  anyway.
