Listening to: Take Me to the Beach

Yesterday, Mom and I went to the movie theater, but not to see a regular movie: we were seeing the recording one of her favorite bands, Imagine Dragons, live at the Hollywood Bowl. (She actually didn't love it, but as she said, that's how you know, you try things.) I enjoyed it, though two hours of the flashing lights were a bit much for my head, but here's how shallow I am, the lead singer has a very nice body and watching him move around, without a shirt for most of the show, was very nice.

Meanwhile, I only knew about half the songs, but they played a new-to-me song that I loved, Take Me to the Beach.


I love the beat, but also the sentiment, because come on:

You take the snow
It's way too cold...
I'll take the beach

Doesn't that have my name all over it?

    1. I mean, she's also fond of Shostakovich and Vivaldi...she likes a lot of things. When I was in college, Mike and the Mechanics came to play there, and Mom was so excited to see them! We were in the second row center, and she grinned through the whole thing.

  2. I've heard of the band and am probably familiar with their songs without knowing their name. That's the way with a lot of music for me! I admire you for trying new things.
