A beautiful composition by Ludovico Einaudi. The literal translation in English is 'White Clouds'. Whenever I listen to this song, I imagine myself walking on the beach. The sky covered by a blanket of the clouds, a cool breeze in the air, the ocean washing my feet with each wave, and the sweet drops of rain falling from the sky.
Another piano composition by Ludovico Einaudi. The literal translation in English is 'The Days'. Einaudi was inspired to compose this after hearing a folk song that originated in the island of Mali. The folk song revolved around the killing of a hippo by a hunter, and the subsequent lamentation in the nearby village. For me, the song potrays the ups and downs of one's life. It shows that life is not just made up of happiness and __major__ chords, but there are times when one has to face trepidations and failure. But the sun always rises in the end, and brings warmth and opportunities with it. Tell me your ideas about the song. What it makes you think about?

Join me as I relive those experiences and recite the story of the place where I spent the most joyful moments of my life.
