The Song ‘Ivy’ by Frank Ocean – Chiqui’s goosebump moment
“Hi! I’m Chiqui. I’m from Montserrat and my goosebump moment was when I listened to Frank Ocean’s song ‘Ivy’. I remember the first time I heard this song, I might have listened to it one hundred times that day while I was building a desk crying about the love. I’d never met and it also made me feel emotions I thought I never had. This song made me realize that love isn’t about keeping or owning the person. It’s about enjoying the love while it’s there. I think this is the perfect example of how simplicity can be so powerful because the topic of the song is so sensitive and melancholic, and at the same time his voice is so smooth and delicate, making a very emotional masterpiece. Even though I’ve never had a broken heart or a depressive story, I think this is a good song to express and identify emotions. I feel so grateful that I found this song and I swear that Frank Ocean is a lyrical genius.”
