"Monica" by Before Dark is more than just a song it’s a reflection of the music I aspire to create.

Jennifer Lopez’s “Broken Like Me” resonates deeply with me, especially after a recent relationship where I shed the old version of myself but also gained so much into the new version I am today. The lyrics, “I loved you so much, and that messed me up,” mirror the emotional turmoil I experienced. The song’s portrayal of vulnerability and strength in the face of heartbreak parallels my own journey of rediscovering self-worth. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of brokenness, there’s a path to healing and self empowerment.

Toni Braxton’s “Spanish Guitar” is a track that delves into feelings and desire. She mentions having feelings for a man who has no idea about her desires. She sits and watches this man play music while she wishes the man gave her at least as much attention as his Spanish guitar. The imagery of floating on water in love resonates with me, symbolizing the weightless and all encompassing nature of love. As a hopeless romantic, this song becomes an escape, allowing me to immerse myself in the fantasy of being cherished and desired. The metaphor of the Spanish guitar, representing a deep connection and longing, mirrors my own desires for a love that is both passionate and reciprocated.

It’s important to me because it makes me feel empowered, like I’m venting and stepping into my good energy and confidence, not letting up with any negativity. The song’s assertive tone and daring lyrics inspire me to take control of my own narrative and embrace my desires without fear.
