A song that is very close to me is called “When Did You Fall” by Chris Rice. This song is one that I relate to love because it was a song that I played when I fell in love with my first boyfriend. It was the first time that I truly think that I experienced love for someone else. I was dating this guy during a time that our band went to stay overnight in a high school gym because we had a band competition the next day and didn’t want to wake up really early to leave and drive for eight hours. I was not supposed to wake up until eight but I ended up waking up at six and could not fall asleep. I didn’t want to wake up anyone else in the gym so I went to the girls’ locker room and listen to this song on my iPod over and over. After only three or four times through the song a few other girls woke up to take showers and straighten their hair. I continued to dance in the locker room because I was so happy that I had found someone who was special to me. The other girls thought that I was acting very silly but they were happy for me. I think this memory is always going to stay with me because it was the moment that I realized how much I could love someone who wasn’t family and how happy that could make me. This song is very slow and doesn’t have very many voices in the song. It stays very mellow. But the lyrics are very sweet and seem very sincere. I think this song spoke to me because it gave a lot of examples of ways that you can see that someone loves you.
