    Re: What's Your Favourite Great Big Sea song lyric?

    I don't know if it's my FAVORITE lyric, but a couple of months ago, I was listening to GBS on my iPod and "Something Beautiful" came on. I never really loved that song for some reason, but that time, I found myself really LISTENING to it. When I heard,

     " I know you‘ll never count the tears you‘ve cried
    Though you’ve asked a million questions
    No one could tell you why
    A single soul is chosen to be the one put to the test
    But there will be some consolation for a heart that never rests"

    I actually started to tear up on a crowded subway. I was mortified, but it felt amazing. I was coming out of 3 of the most difficult years of my life; I was at a point where I was actually USED to constantly feeling depressed and could hardly conceive there was any other way to live. I think at that moment, I was already on my way out of the worst part, but that song, that lyric just triggered a very emotional response.

    And ever since that day, it really has been steadily getting better, and whenever it's NOT as good as I wish it were, I just tell myself that something beautiful is waiting. And it works!

    Sorry for the sappiness :)
