Young Men Dead – Courageous

What do I love so much about the sounds that exude from this track? It might be the sing-song happy vocals that combat the almost tribal drum beats. There’s also something to be said about men who sing higher than most woman. It’s not only pleasing to the ears, but a treat. It takes me back to when I was thirteen years old, when guys were just starting to adjust to their new voices. There was a tendency to jump the gun and start talking with a lower voice, for they’d gotten a sneak peek of what lay ahead of them — the deep masculine growl that would soon become theirs. But for the moment, it was in between and they knew nothing better than to play into the deeper voice. So voices would crack, and hilarity would ensue especially at Bar Mitzvahs.

Hopefully the premise of this song will instill some courage to go out and do something beautiful today. I’ve been having really productive but relaxed Sundays lately, and because of that, Sundays have become one of my favorite days of the week.

Cheers!
