It is so easy to get locked into the music of our teens and early twenties isn’t it! In my case, those years were the 1960’s and 1970’s. We had lots of protest/social conscience songs. Folk music was popular in my town, and The Moody Blues were popular in my growing record collection. Paul Simon was played regularly on the radio, as were Pink Floyd, Queen and Fleetwood Mac! I loved the 1960’s and 1970’s but then …. the 80’s were pretty good, as where the 90’s. The 2000’s brought more music talent to my ears, as did the 2010’s.
It is so easy to get locked into the music of our teens and early twenties, but if we allowed that to happen, we would be missing out on the talent of the generations that follow us!
“1000 Times” was released, I believe, in 2013.
A New Direction Perhaps? 
You are so right Colin! My “teen” music was the 70’s. I really got sick of classic rock by the mid 90’s since it was so over played on the radio though the 80’s and into the 90’s. During the 90’s I discounted the sound of Grunge as not “good” music. Never listened to alternative radio stations either in the 90’s. But for the past year, I have been listening a lot to 90’s grunge and other 90’s alternative music and really liked it along with other artists like Evanescence. Fell in love with her sound like it’s brand new music to me now!

So much great music out there to discover! I love her voice and somehow had overlooked this song before. You can feel the emotion of the song as she sings.
She also was born in December, just 2 days and well some years, after me. 🙂

Good choice Colin. I know what you mean. There is a lot of talent around who don’t get the recognition or airplay as much today. I confess I only listen to the radio in the car, and even that isn’t every time.

She has a pretty voice, but what pathetic lyrics. This lady’s gonna live in the friend zone forever, and never look for another. There’s plenty of fish in the sea, if we’re willing to look beyond our immediate surroundings.

Agreed … but I’ve heard a lot worse. It has a nice melody, and she sings very well. 🙂

It is a sad song, I feel sorry for the lady, But…. not in a pathetic way. She is committed to him and just patiently waiting for his light bulb to come on! Though she may have better luck if she would just dive into the sea. 🙂

If his light bulb hasn’t come on by now, maybe he’s a dimwit.
