"How can I give love when I don't know know what it is I'm giving? How can I give love when I just don't know how to give? How can I give love when love is something I ain't ever had?"
- How by John Lennon
So I randomly heard this song while on a taxi going to the Cebu Airport to catch our flight back to Davao. I never save old radio stations on my car stereo (or any radio for that matter) because, while I do like a number of old songs, some of the tracks being played on these stations give me the creeps. You know how tragic movies always have haunting music backgrounds whenever someone dies/gets killed/decides to commit suicide? Or the songs that the serial killers play while planning their attack. Yeah. So naturally when I hear those types of songs it sparks a feeling of...I don't know...fear? Lol. So, no-no. Especially when I'm driving alone. BIG NO-NO.
Anyway, that said, I like this song. Hahaha. I admit it still sounds like something Leatherface would hum while skinning his victim, but the lyrics kind of offsets that. John Lennon is a legend, after all. So anything he writes is practically a jewel.
I'm glad I heard this song. It conveys everything I need to say to the world. I rest my case.
