Wonderful Tonight

Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton is one of my all time favorite songs. Doesn't matter what kind of mood I'm in, if I hear this song it instantly puts me in a good mood. It is just an all around relaxing, easy to listen to, elegant song. I always request this song at wedding receptions, even if there is no one to dance with, that is how much I enjoy listening to it. This song would make any girl feel beautiful and good about themselves. The music in this song is amazing, especially the guitar.

My little brother is so sweet and thoughtful, he has this song on his I-pod and he always plays it for me whenever we are together. When I was going through my break-up he posted the video on my facebook, just because he knew it would make me smile. It is the little things in life that mean the most to me. He took time out of his day to make sure I was smiling. The last time I heard this song was at my cousin's wedding reception, I requested it of course. Although I didn't have a date for her wedding, I enjoyed a slow dance with my dad, which was priceless.

The song itself is basically about a husband and wife getting ready for a party, the wife is taking forever to get ready, she is obviously conscious about her looks. So when she asks him "do I look alright?" he replies by saying "yes you look wonderful tonight." He pretty much thinks his wife as beautiful and the need for make-up and all the primping is unneccesary. "We go to the party, and everyone turns to see, this beautiful lady, that's walking around with me." He is proud to be seen walking around with this beautiful lady and happy that it is his wife. I wish the world and marriages were all like this, it would make the world a better place. I hope one day I will find the guy to tell me I look wonderful tonight.
