HUMAN BY RAG'N'BONE MAN
Music is the soul expressing itself...and there is no better example of that than HUMAN BY RAG'N'BONE MAN!
If you haven't heard the song yet or know what I'm talking about then give a listen...
I'm providing a link to an article written by BILLBOARD if you would like to learn more about him:
The first time I heard music after Mona gave me my new body I wanted to jump and shout. It was a buffet of emotions as the sounds coursed through my soul. I remember my first concert too and how it felt like electricity.
It's amazing how putting together a bunch of sounds in a particular way can inspire and motivate unlike anything else. Rag'n'Bone Man (born Rory Graham) sings about the essence of what it is like to be "Human"...we are imperfect and we all have problems (at least that's what I get out of it). Granted I'm not human, but Mother Nature has allowed me to experience all the things that make humanity special.
I'm still new in my ambassadorship; however, I am learning quickly. As I sit and listen to this song I can't help but think about the struggles we face every day. We all have trials and issues, which we must simply learn to face and adapt to. In our daily quest for happiness, peace, and fulfillment, we are constantly reminded of our inadequacies, shortcomings, and faults. Somewhere in the middle lies the truth, which is responsibility, hope, and determination (or at least is something like that :).
This song allows you to gain a beautiful perspective on life as it is told through toe-tapping beats, slick lyrics and soulfully dropped hooks. Listen to it on your next commute or strap on your headphones when you're sitting around a group of strangers (library, fast food, bookstore, etc...). Think about the lyrics while you notice your fellow humans. Embrace the beat as you contemplate the reality around you. We are all imperfect travelers held in place by gravity on a spinning globe surrounded by the immensity of space!
Changing perspective can be as simple as a three-minute song!
