Anthem for the Week - May 31

I’ve been pretty bad about not posting lately.  But!  I’m on today, so here is the anthem for the week:

Run Kid Run - “Set the Dial”

Static fights
Against the reel
Real is all I want to feel
This feeling’s got me off the ground
Transmitting love around
When everything’ a little out of place
Make your move to escape
Set the dial and make it straight
A frequency we will create
So play a song of love
The song we want to hear

We are the radio
On to the world that’s lost control
Let’s turn it up so they all know the song that’s playing
On the radio

Love is a movement but our movements slow
The reception on our radio
Is breaking in and out of flow
The sound it can not be concealed
Concealed is how we seem to feel
Let’s break these airwaves push it through
Free the signal make a move
So play a song of love
The song we want to hear

We are the radio
On to the world that’s lost control
Let’s turn it up so they all know the song that’s playing
On the radio

Yeah take control
To the tune of what we know
Let sound waves show

Were letting go
At the top of my lungs
I’m gonna tell everyone
This is the sound
That sole surrounds
So turn it up
I’m gonna dare to share
Open my mouth and declare
This is the sound
So play it loud
Into the airwaves now
At the top of my lungs
I’m gonna tell everyone
This is the sound
That sole surrounds
So turn it up

What I really like about this song, besides a fun beat, is that it talks about a “song of love”.  This idea of love in general is what drives my Christianity.  When asked what the greatest commandment was, Christ didn’t just give one, he gave two and both were about love; loving God and loving our neighbors.  While I may not be the greatest at following them, I try and remember that love is important.
