Everloving is one of my favorite songs but, unfortunately, there’s never been an “official” music video for it.  However, we do have this footage of Moby performing the song on British TV and, for me, that’s close enough!

This song always gets to me on an emotional level.  I guess that’s probably true for a lot of people.  I can still remember one night, up at Lake Texoma night.  I was listening to this song and staring at the reflection of the moon on the water.  And, for a few minutes, I felt like I could walk out on the water and if I just kept walking, I would eventually find myself standing on the moon.  It’s hard to explain but it was a transcendent moment.

We’re starting a new month and, for me, a new month is always a chance for renewal.  The struggles of the previous month are over with.  Whatever issues were present in April are gone.  Now, it’s May and it’s time to leave behind everything that came before.  For me, this song is all about that promise of renewal.

For instance, after spending most of April feeling like I was falling behind, I wrote two pretty good reviews on Tuesday — Avengers: Endgame and The Curse of La Llorona.  And, for May Day, I’m going to celebrate the conquering of my writer’s block by buying a lot of stuff that I don’t really need, spending a lot of money on myself, and supporting capitalism in every possible way.  And I’ll probably have this song playing in my head while I do it.

Enjoy!
