Permanent!
I have been in love with David Cook’s new song Permanent for two months now. I play it over and over whenever I get the chance. Pickles hears it on my iPhone and always comes running. She loves it too.
The song reminds me of Pickles. Listen to the lyrics and you will understand how captivating it is. Permanent. It’s in the title. Our baby’s are permanently ours. Our little gifts of gold that will never lose their shine no matter what muddy water we travel through.
David writes about his brother who has cancer. And after having lost my Mum to cancer ten years ago I empathize with his words, with his tone. He is singing “I’m permanent”. He is saying ‘I will never go away, although you may have to, I will never not be here’. Oh dear I am welling up again, even though I have heard it 50 million or so times already.
I am a music lover. I am stung by lyrics like his and with his dolcet tones lashing out his pain it gets you in the gut every time you hear it. As a Mum, I know how incredibly special our baby’s are and as a daughter I know just how incredibly special Mums and Dads are and as a sister I think sometimes I underestimate how incredibly special they are.
Forgive my emotional outburst but I just wanted to put my thoughts in ink.
Please do go and listen to his song. Trust me when I tell you Permanent will take on a new meaning once you hear it!

Wow Jay thank you so much for leading me to this incredible song. Your description gave me the build up and his opening instantly gave me goose bumps.His voice hauntingly enveloped my body and I was spell bound.
