Melodic Mondays: Wildest Dreams by Anthem Lights (cover)

I love this song so much. The music is beautiful, their voices are gorgeous, and oh my goodness, I could just listen to it forever.

I don’t have any characters that really relate to this song or a plot that seems to follow the idea, but I love how the lyrics hint at a deeper, sweeter story, and it’s fascinating to think how just one person, one experience, can have such an impact that we remember it forever. I think it’d be cool to write a story based on this song (in fact, it’s giving me plot bunnies as I listen), and it makes me curious: do you guys have any characters (yours or someone else’s) who would relate to this song? A plot that seems to follow the idea? What’s one good thing, one fabulous experience, that’s changed your character so much they’ll remember it forever? Comment me!

Oh my gosh. O_O THIS WAS GORGEOUS. LIKE. AHHH. Each voice compliments each other, it makes this cover so beautiful! dakfjlask. Also, it would be amazing to write a story to this song (NaNoWriMo plot, perhaps? :D Argh, I loved that idea that you mentioned of writing a short story everyday, though; that would be so awesome!)!

I *might* have some characters who can relate to this; more ones who have lost their parents and are missing them bad, you know? They're just reminiscing about + missing + thinking of them in my stories . . . I'm not sure if this matches up with the song awesomely, but, yeah. XD Also, any of my characters meeting Jesus; hello life changing! <3

....I have no words for that song. No words. *sits dazed*

You should totally write a story to that song! I would love to read it! :3 I also agree with the experiences. Any experience and/or memory usually has quite a bit of impact on people. :)

I hope you do write that story. When you do, tell us!

Ooh, I love this cover. And I love how they made the song cleaner. I'm not sure I have any characters, currently, who could relate to this song in any way, mainly because I don't deal too heavily in romance. But, my NaNo novel might have a character or two who could at least relate to the emotion in this song, specifically in the original Taylor Swift version. Thanks for sharing!
