A very simple exercise that I would like for you to try out while checking out or Song of the Day: Close your eyes and try to visualize all the different colors of the spectrum that this song brings about for you. Certainly the deepest Indigo Blue is an overarching theme here, but what else is suggested? What instrument or instruments suggest the different colors? How does it make you feel? Above all else if you have to listen to the song a couple of times to reach your conclusions, by all means… enjoy!
