The man who can’t be moved…..
I was rushing around the other morning trying to get dressed while VH1 was on in the background.
Now, I have come to expect nothing more than unmagical music.
However, I figured hey maybe they will play Lady Gaga Disco Stick, that’s always fun for some visual entertainment.
All of a sudden I heard this voice and it was as if The heavens had sent an angel.
I snapped my head around so fast and laid my eyes on this almond eyed, lead male singer. I have come to find out his name is Danny O’Donohue.
Which is Ironic because my favorite male singer/songwriter is also named Danny.(Wink,Wink)
His tone was much like Freddie Mercury and his person was charming.
The lyric he presented went like this:
First I heard him sing “I’m not broke I’m just a broken hearted man”
and my heart sunk a little, then he sang:
cause if one day you wake up and find that your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder
where on earth I could be
I’m thinking maybe you’ll come back here at the place that we’d meet
and you’d see me waiting for you on the corner of the street
So, “I’m not moving, he cryed”, then repeated the line again “I’m not moving” in a longing call to his lost mate.
I have not had a song move me like this since Dave Matthews Stay or Leave.
They had just captured the soul of every hopeless romantic who secretly dreams of “the one” doing just that,waiting on the corner forever until they return.
Although they are not reinventing the wheel with this melodically familiar tune.
It is a nice sweet change from the whiny boy band voice.
He might not be moving, but he certainly moved something in my special happy place.
