In your own space, share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favorite interview, a book, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
For today's challenge, I'm choosing to shine a spotlight on one of my favorite songs. "Colorblind" by the Counting Crows.
First reason I love it: It was used in one of my favorite movies, Cruel Intentions. The scene where Annette is riding up the escalator and Sebastian is standing at the top always makes my breath hitch in my throat.
Second reason I love it: It's a beautiful song about letting yourself be vulnerable. It's about letting your walls come down and opening yourself up to the possibility that there are people out there who want to help and who want to love you. This is a song I first heard when I was 16, a girl on the cusp of adolescence. I connected with it in a lot of ways and I appreciate the way it brings me back to those moments in my past.
