“About a Song”

Rainy day, cozy bed, Nanna Øland Fabricius (born 20 November 1985 in Copenhagen), is singing “he said, Sorry but you’re never gonna dance again, But my feet just keeps me moving…Trying to break the chain…And I feel like running, and I feel no pain…I feel like running”…old memories came to my mind, I studied Classic Ballet many many years, around 12…I was also in figure skating solo-dance competitions. I thought it was my future, I also took tap dance classes and contemporary Ballet too. There was a time that, dance was my life, my future. But future is never like we thought it will be like I guess, sometimes it it, but not in my case, and not in Oh Land. Nanna was also studying to became a Ballerina. Classic Ballet used to be her future. But then a serious back injury took her dream away. Something very similar happened to me. I could not dance in a professional way because of my health, at least not at that time.
There was a dark moment in her life. There was a dark moment in mine.

But there is always a light, always a way to discover new skills…only if you still believe…you can have more than a dream, and find new ones.
Oh Land song keeps playing.
I was reading an interview where Nanna Oh Land said that this “dark moment” phase made her realize that the reason why she danced was Music…Music was the reason of it all…Music was her Light, her new dream. Music was also one my lights to face the grey clouds. And this song is the song that pulls me to Life! This life, This Stage Life!
I believe everything you do in this life is an art…the art of feelings, like falling in love with somebody and let him/her get your heart, Dance in the rain and don´t be afraid of getting wet…of doing mistakes; Give and take. Finding a new way to dance even when someone says “sorry but your never gonna dance again”.
This song is about being Strong and also about being Fragile, like we all are. But it´s also about getting back on the road.
A new track started playing on Itunes. It´s Oh land again, but now she is singing about “White Nights”.
Life is like music…full of track! Dear Readers, I hope you find yours like I did!
Go out with you headphones and try to capture “your” sound
I bet you will find it!
