Growing up I was a big time daddies girl and I still consider myself his little baby girl. One of my favorite things to do with my dad when I was little was listen to music. Because of him, my taste in music is a little old fashion. The Beatles, The Turtles, and The Beach Boys were some of our all time favorites. One song in particular that I that we loved to listen to was Don't Worry Baby, by the Beach Boys. When I think of this song I think of me and my dad dancing around in the living room with this song loudly being played through the whole house. During finals week this semester I called my dad complaining about how hard finals were and how stressed out I was. I thought that the week would never end and that I was just going to fail every single test. A few minutes later my dad called me back and had Don't Worry Baby playing the back ground. The moment that song came on I went back to the image of me and my dad dancing together. The sound of the song itself is so slow and relaxing. My dad turned up the song where it says, " Don't worry baby, everything will alright." He told me to just do my best and that things will work out. I love my dad so much, and this song will always remind me of my dad and remind me that even when things are bad it will all be alright.
Lyrics: Don't Worry Baby
Well its been building up inside of me
For oh I don't know how long
I don't know why
But I keep thinking
Something's bound to go wrong
But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
And she says "Don't worry baby"
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
I guess I should've kept my mouth shut
When I started to brag about my car
But I can't back down now because
I pushed the other guys too far
She makes me come alive
And makes me wanna drive
When she says "Don't worry baby"
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
She told me "Baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you
And if you knew how much I loved you
Baby nothing could go wrong with you"
This is a great song by one of my favorite bands. This song of theirs is up there with "God only knows" as my favorite Beach Boys songs. Good one!
ReplyDeleteThis post makes me think of what it would be like if everyone in the world wrote about their favorite song, and why it was their favorite song. Even though thousands of people might have this as their favorite song, everyone would have slightly different meanings and memories attached to it. So interesting what one song/movie/book/TV show can do for different people, and so great that we can all choose these as commonalities even when our specific memories aren't common.
