MUSIC MONDAYS #1

So since I'm at a lose of what to blog about, I thought it would be cool to start doing MUSIC MONDAYS! I'll pick a song/album/artist, and basically just elaborate on why I'm digging it right now. Let's get into it.

Music Monday #1: Kids Again (Ft. Amy Allen)- Artist Vs. Poet

This song is a relatively new release by one for my all time favorite bands (AVP). I always love anything they put out, because they're AWESOME, but I love the simplistic approach of this one especially. I wouldn't know how exactly to categorize their specific music genre, because they've evolved greatly over the years, but I think it's worth the listen for anyone. 

About The Song: AVP and Amy Allen collaborated on this song, that's about a couple who make each other feel young again. They describe each other and it's just a simple love song about two people feeling like, well, kids again. 
Why I Like It: Besides the fact that I'm a SUCKER for a good duet, I think Amy Allen's voice suites the lead singers vocals really well, I think sometimes duets sound like each vocalist recorded in a different studio, and it just sounds separated. I think AVP and Amy Allen did a duet that sounds like two people TOGETHER, singing to each other. I also love the metaphors in all of the verses, the lyrics are raw and beautiful, and sound almost like poetry to me.
Favorite Lines: "She wears her loneliness just like a crown, but when she smiles all the kings will bow down"; "But he can listen like a rainy day, and drown it out"; "Leaves her desires at the welcome mat when she walks in"
