04/22/12 Lacie

Lacie is an anagram for Alice.

And it is also one of the memorable tunes from the anime Pandora Hearts. Random of me; but I've had it on loop for the past 5-10 minutes now...

It's strangely soothing.


This one is one of the anime rips I assume. But it's what I'm talking about. Note the soft melodic qualities of the song.

As to why I'm listening to it. It's actually a really shitty reason. You see every time I get close to having an anxiety breakdown. Well less anxiety just emotional bullshit. My head hurts for a bit, the chest tightening up and mild nausea. Then of course randomly I'll start humming lines from various music/games/anime. I'm not consciously thinking about it, it just well happens.

Lacie is interesting specifically because I gave up on the anime series quite a time ago because of my lack of interest in the story line and the randomness of the matter.

It however has a correlation between myself and the emotions exhibited in the music. Which may explain why I was listening to Baba Yetu earlier. The uplifting nature of that piece of music not only pairs well with a general happy mood that I exhibited in passing but adds plenty to the happiness that was bouncing off of me...


This above cover of the song works very well too. The piece itself shouldn't be depressing so much as it just exists. It's music after all. It applies the emotions that the listener wants to bounced around on the vibrations of the instrument (I was thinking use of strings but I realize that the word vibration encompasses all instruments as sound is based on wave patterns).

It was William Shakespeare who said: "If music be the food of love, play on." And I feel that at the heart of what he said, he knew that music had as much power to balance the emotions as it did to keep the soul alive. Which is of course thinking that the soul has a health bar similar to those found in the main characters of role playing games. If that be the case; my soul is on the verge of dying.
