We've all been at a complete standstill on the road before... Or just bored at work. Never fear, the weekend will soon be here! Until then, let's switch into memory lane and rock out while we roll on!
This week's jam: Drive – Incubus (1999)
This song has long been on my playlist and reminds me of simpler times riding around in my mother’s and grandfather’s cars when this song was new, which I believe was an Oldsmobile Achieva and Mercury Cougar. I would’ve been in Kindergarten and later headed to the 1st grade, watching shows on Nickelodeon. But I also think this song’s acoustic parts, particularly on the opening, are very smooth, and the message “whatever tomorrow brings, I’ll be there”, represents that we are never alone in our journeys through life. Also, the message that we are in control of our destinies resonates: “Would you choose water over wine? Or the wheel and drive?” Similar to when we are behind the wheel of a car and we control where we are headed.
