The Saturdays

The Saturdays is a London-based girl group composed of (image above, from left to right) Frankie Sandford, Rochelle Wiseman, Una Healy, Mollie King, and Vanessa White. From what I understand, Vanessa’s mom is Filipino (from Davao?). “Missing You” is a single they released this August 2010. The song has an very pleasant pop feel that doesn’t get tiresome too fast. I’ve been listening to it for a month now and I still haven’t tired of it. The song sings about a lost love. I like the way the lyrics were written. Here are a few lines: “I miss missing you, sometimes / I miss hurting you ’til you cry / I miss watching you as you try / Try not to end up in tears / Begging to get back together / I just want you to be / To be stuck in a second forever / So don’t freak out and believe.” Enjoy the music video shot in Malaga, Spain below.

Sometimes, when I listen to this song, I am reminded of how I still miss my exes. But as I listen more intently to the lyrics, I realize that it’s not actually the people that I miss; what I miss really is the companionship, the dynamics of being in a relationship. So yeah, I gotta admit, I miss being in love. But I’m in no rush. There’s always music to keep me company, hahaha. As long as there’s music, I can vicariously experience how it feels to be in love, and in most cases, music still keeps this romantic’s feet planted firmly on the ground even when my mind takes me flying across my imagination.
