At a difficult time in my life I played the song Scared for 5 hours.
Straight.
Listen.
Press rewind.
Stop.
Play.
For 5 hours.
After about the 15th time, with great precision, I could stop the rewinding with incredible precision. I hit the very start of the song .. everytime - without trying. My brain had memorized how long to wait before I hit stop.
I eventually stopped playing the song when I saw this image of Gord reading a book that made him scared. It felt peaceful and I felt better.
When I hear the song I think of that day and how the song helped me in an odd way.
