Song of the Week: Save the World by Swedish House Mafia

Ever imagined escaping, to that happy place, where you can hunch your shoulders and disappear?

Well, during school hours, I can't, so my happy place is a little modern invention we call the iPhone, which I adore, use quite frequently.

This week's amazing song, is by Swedish House Mafia, called Save the World.

Every girl or boy has imagined being a superhero once in their lifetime, no matter their age. Heck, I'm a girl and I dare to dream about being Tony-frickin'-Stark, every once in a while, because Iron-man, just plain awesome!

And he's hot, rich, and in his own words a genius billionaire playboy philanthropist, who settles down with the down to earth, equally hot, lovely, Ms. Pepper Potts.

Whose life can get much better than that, not to mention a pink Iron man suit would compliment me, awesomely. But the point is, everyone dreams, everyone falls, everyone is inspired by heroes.

And in my mind, that is what this song, accomplishes. Built more for dancing, than lyrics, I enjoy the simple lyrics of two lines.

One, "It’s far from home,

It’s for the better

What we dream, it’s all that matters

We’re on our way, united."

The other? 

Line 2: " Who’s gonna save the world tonight,

Who’s gonna bring it back to life

We’re gonna make it, you and I,

We’re gonna save the world tonight."

This song reminds me, somewhat, that like this blog was made for, dreams are always capable of being achieved, that somehow, somewhere, deep down inside, we are built for dreaming, we dream, we come alive, just like Tony Stark, Clark Kent, Wonderwoman, that is inside all of us.
