Lost in Owl City

Since I haven't been updating this blog much, I tend to use my twitter as my "mini blog" since I update it with my thoughts, all day long. And if you are a follower, you'll notice that I've mentioned Owl City a few times. Owl City has this effect of making me a little bit dreamy, and if I'm feeling down, Owl City sort of lifted my spirits up. And Im not the only one, Taylor Swift also mentioned in one of her tweets something about Owl City and her being dreamy. I can't remember the exact words..but it was something like that. Too lazy to find it. hehe. I RT-ed it though.

I'm in a bad "monday blues" attack. For no apparent reason. Im not nasty to my colleagues, but I felt mundane and nothing and I can sense negativity oozing out of me.

I was waiting for someone or something to lift my spirits up, and I even tried Owl City in the morning but it didn't work. Usually I will play Vanilla Twilight, Fireflies and The Saltwater Room (not in any particular order). They are my happy songs. But somehow today it didn't work.

Then I decided to try again with me reading the lyrics and one song caught my interest. I can feel the muscles around my mouth moving in a smiling position. The song name is "Dental Care". I'm familiar with song but I never paid much attention it. It is such a quirky song, but very very adorable. It made me smile because of the Adam Young's creativity and positive outlook. I like the way he sees things. Somehow, to him it seems all are rainbows and sunshines. He can make a song about going to the dentist into a happy song. It reminded me of the theme song of sesame street too. LOL. But I think this is not actually a song of going to the dentist literally. It's quite deep, at least that's the way I see it. Or maybe I was thinking too much, again! hahaha. maybe it is just a song about dental care. :P Check this out.

"Dental Care" - Owl City

I brush my teeth, and look in the mirror
And laugh out loud as I'm beaming from ear to ear
I'd rather pick flowers instead of fightsAnd rather than flaunt my style
I'd flash you a smile of clean pearly whites

I've been to the dentist a thousand times so I know the drill
I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair
But somehow I still get the chills
"Have a seat" he says pleasantly
As he shakes my hand, and practically laughs at me
"Open up nice and wide" he says peering in
With a smirk he says "don't have a fit this'll just pinch a bit"
As he tries not to grin

When hygienists leave on long vacations
That's when dentists scream and lose their patience

Talking only brings the tooth aches on
Because I say the stupidest things
So if my resolve goes South
I'll swallow my pride with an aspirin,
and shut my mouth

Golf and alcohol don't mix
And that's why I don't drink and drive
Because, good grief I'd knock out my teeth
And have to kiss my smile goodbye

I've been to the dentist a thousand times so I know the drill
I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair
But somehow I still get the chills


Didn't get what I mean? Didn't get why it made me smile? heheheh I cannot help you then. You have to find your own song. All I know is that Im in a better mood than before. keke
