Driving Soundtrack
posted in Music |
Tonight, while driving home from Target in the snow, we had the radio tuned to listen to Christmas music. As we pull into the last leg of the journey and feel the car sliding just a little bit, the song “Ava Maria” comes on. After a bit, we both get quiet, listening. After a moment, Zach chuckled and said just what I was thinking…that this is not a good song to come on when you are driving in bad weather because it all of a sudden feels like the soundtrack to a very, very bad crash. lol. A beautiful song in every other context, but both of us got nervous wondering where the semi truck/train/out of control large vehicle/tree was going to come out of. lol.

Hehe, I’ve had similar thoughts with other songs. I can totally envision the scene you describe here, with that song playing.
You’ve got to watch out for “Hallelujah”, too. Especially the Jeff Buckley or Rufus Wainwright versions.
I’m glad the song curse didn’t get you!
