Today I want
to talk to you about a song that I've known for a long time. It’s kind of
depressing, as it should be, I guess. The song is called „K-141 KYPCK” and it’s
by Ef, a post-rock band from Sweden. It’s a track about the Russian submarine
K-141 Kursk that sank in the Barents Sea on the 12th August 2000. It’s a
powerful song even without you knowing the meaning behind its creation. For me
it's a roller coaster of emotions that goes from feeling low to being well and
just calm with everything in my life. I especially find myself in this song in
the 3th minute; it’s just perfect.
Since this
band made an effort and wrote a song about this Russian tragedy, I’m going to
choose the Russian Caravan tea, a classic smoked black tea, made with a blend
of lapsang souchong. Russian Caravan is not actually from Russia; however it
was made popular along the trade route from China to Russia. This tea is lower
in caffeine than other black teas and I think it has the right gravity to be a
perfect match for this powerful, commemorative song.
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
