You're not dead, you're sleeping

I've loved and I've lost. Who hasn't? But one important lesson I've learned is that it is much more painful to hold on than it is to accept the loss and move forward. However, every once in a while it feels so good to revisit that love and remember it for what it was.

This particular song, "Signs" by Bloc Party, has the ability to make me smile and cry simultaneously. It can hurt so much to think about what's missing in my life, but I remember how lucky I am to have felt that closeness to another human being. And it never ceases to amaze me the traces these people have left behind. I see signs all the time.

Like most of my friends, you may not be a fan of Bloc Party. But this track is like no other. It's not obnoxious, it's emotional. It may be one of the most heartwarming tracks I've listened to in a long time. I urge you to watch and listen to the live version above before you actually download the track. It might give you a whole new perspective on the band, the music, and that special love.
