Song Title

Awesome Song
Song Title..This Isn't What I Ordered by Alaria Taylor


I heard this very fetching song the other day while listening to the NetteRadio show. It really caught my attention because at first I thought the singer was unjustly whinning about an incident that in my opinion could have been easily resolved without all the drama she attributed to it! But then listening closer to the words a torrent of emotions errupted within my mind and heart and have brought forth the following thoughts..the singer was singing about "This isn't what I ordered!"
Well now these very words can be applied to a number of different situations , whether or not simply voicing them could effectuate , bring about any changes in outcomes is what intrigues and bequiles me so!
The singer in her example..uses a well known business name of giving her fish filets instead of a cheeseburger and fries...This isn't what..and take it out of sight! So it is that with this vocalization of displeasure it did in fact bring the problem out into the open and the business acquiesed to their error and told her to proceed to the next window where a correction was to occur. And that is how indeed things should work if possible. If things aren't the way you want them..speak up..get what you want.
Now for the other side of those very same words..This Isn't What I Ordered ..this expression would apply today for me and many others...loss of a parent and good friend; the ravages of tsunami's, hurricanes, mine accidents, "911", loss of innocence to children betrayed by some members of the Catholic Church, the war being fought in Iraq; the hords of American soldiers dying in defense of a questionable legal war; crime on the rise; the ever escalating prices of oil and gasoline, and on and on.... THIS ISN'T WHAT I ORDERED PLEASE TAKE IT OUT OF SIGHT. (Oh if only we could).
This woman's song is indeed timely, on track, intriguing..haunting.

Song by Eden Automatic..."STARVED"

The group Eden Automatic in their own self description uses the following: "defines the new dark alternative by spiraling in and around silky vocals adding erotic texture to an eerie soundscape". Well they've done a terrific job with this song of demonstrating numerous emotional stretches from self-deprecation, brooding, moodiness, self-illusion and doubts, even when love and references to terms of endearment are sung about, one does not get a sense of happiness being felt or experienced.

The song is performed by a woman with a lovely wonderfully toned voice and the words coming out of her mouth makes one wonder is she serious or is she toying with us about about such seemingly conflicted feelings..check this out, "starving myself for you..hungry for affection..too weak to say a word or is it all pretention of a shallow and empty world, when I'm starving myself for you?" Are these words and thoughts of un-requitted love and that love is just an illusion or what?

Again, the ying and the yang that is ever present in living life! Funny thing is that I know a host of folk whom I can relate to the words of this song, and to me that is the mark of good work when others can listen and think of others the words apply too..hell, it could be yourself!!

This song will be coming out on a cd by the name of "As For Now", buy the cd and get the rest of the story. Ha, ha, I'm also starved, for food not for love, sorry Eden Automatic (:).
