#125 – Sea Of Heartbreak

February always seems like a month that is tied to the concept of romance, most likely because of Valentine’s Day, which is mostly connected to romantic love, deep love, to falling in love, or how we express ourselves in love. Valentine’s Day has become a holiday tied to flowers, chocolates and overpriced greeting cards, which we then use to express our attention or admiration to those we love. But with love, there is always the chance of heartbreak. I would argue that some of the greatest songs in the world evoke the emotion of heartbreak, rather than love, and those are the songs that touch our souls so deeply. Sea Of Heartbreak is absolutely one of those songs.
