Chez le Photographe du Motel by Miles Davis

Miles Davis -  Chez le Photographe du Motel 

Winter break boredom. It strikes us all, boys and girls, from preschool to college. But while your life’s tempo might be moving at the speed of this song’s baseline lately, I encourage you to use the extra time to do some of those things we all “never have time for”. Go for a run, watch “that show” all your friends rave about but you never started and have always felt behind on, or perhaps even…just maybe…read a book (GASP!).

Life wasn’t made to always be such a sprint, and that’s why I’m glad there’s songs out there like “Chez” to remind me that slow doesn’t necessarily mean bad. Davis’s meandering trumpet licks remind me of sunrise walk through Paris while your new spouse sleeps soundly back in the hotel. Sure life may have gotten really hectic, and you know it will again, but enjoy the slow while it lasts.
