WEBVTT - LeAnn’s Wholly Five

0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Holy Human with Liane Rhymes is a production of I

0:00:02.880 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Heart Radio. Hello, my friends, I am so excited to

0:00:17.040 --> 0:00:20.599
<v Speaker 1>announce the new season of Holy Human. That's Holy with

0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:23.760
<v Speaker 1>a W by the way, as a whole Holy Human

0:00:23.920 --> 0:00:27.800
<v Speaker 1>with me Leanne Rhymes. It's a podcast dedicated to helping

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 1>us all achieve a fuller sense of inner peace, healing,

0:00:31.360 --> 0:00:35.640
<v Speaker 1>and happiness individually and together. And I would love for

0:00:35.680 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>you to join me. Yet, since we finished the first season,

0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:03.320
<v Speaker 1>I have been missing you. I know you've been missing

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:06.120
<v Speaker 1>me too, because you've all been telling me. So we

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 1>have been wanting to figure out ways to connect when

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:14.080
<v Speaker 1>it's not just a full podcast. So the first one

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.800
<v Speaker 1>we're going to start out with is my Holy Five.

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:20.640
<v Speaker 1>I ask all my friends and my podcast guests that

0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 1>come on what their Holy five favorite songs are, and

0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 1>I realized I had not shared mine. By the way,

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.240
<v Speaker 1>this is much harder. I have so many songs that

0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:34.839
<v Speaker 1>I could talk about. So this will probably roll out

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.240
<v Speaker 1>over a period of time of my Holy five and

0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 1>maybe a specific genre or a specific feeling. Oh I

0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:44.520
<v Speaker 1>like that, because I actually do think that my holy

0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>five that I've chosen today have a specific feeling. I

0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 1>seem to gravitate towards sad songs because well, there's multiple reasons.

0:01:57.320 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Interestingly enough, I do think that sad is my go

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:07.520
<v Speaker 1>to frequency of feeling because I I feel like, if

0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:10.280
<v Speaker 1>you really think about it, there is a place where

0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:14.799
<v Speaker 1>you actually live a lot of the time, and for me,

0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:18.679
<v Speaker 1>that's sadness. I grew up around a lot of sadness.

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I think that sadness keeps me tied to my childhood,

0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 1>and I think there's a hint of guilt that if

0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 1>I grow past that, if I live in a different frequency,

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 1>that I'm neglecting or abandoning because I feel like I've

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:37.239
<v Speaker 1>had to take care of everyone's feelings growing up. Um,

0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 1>that's my codependent nature. So it's something new for me

0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:45.800
<v Speaker 1>that I've recognized is that sadness is my normal frequency

0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.720
<v Speaker 1>just in general, like when it comes to music, I

0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>gravitate towards not only sad songs, but like more in

0:02:53.600 --> 0:03:00.400
<v Speaker 1>depth feeling story songs. The sad song frequency is something

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:03.959
<v Speaker 1>that I've observed about myself. I actually like to get

0:03:04.000 --> 0:03:06.320
<v Speaker 1>lost in it. There's something comforting about it, and I

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 1>think sad songs do comfort people, especially in times of

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:14.040
<v Speaker 1>of sadness. What's interesting is that I like to hang

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>out there often just going to sad songs or Bob Marley,

0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 1>because there was such power in his lyric and such

0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:27.080
<v Speaker 1>sadness to a lot of his songs, though there's this

0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:33.520
<v Speaker 1>really happy groove, and the juxtaposition was genius. And I

0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:36.360
<v Speaker 1>find when I go to put on a record when

0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 1>I want to feel good in like that space of

0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:41.040
<v Speaker 1>like it's Friday afternoon and it feels good, I put

0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>on Bob Marley. To me, actually, Bob Marley is like

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 1>the most genius uh connection of the two. How long

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:56.440
<v Speaker 1>shady prophets what we stand aside? And look, we all

0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.600
<v Speaker 1>have lived in a world where we've been more comfortable

0:03:59.640 --> 0:04:04.560
<v Speaker 1>with chaos and pain and turmoil and or an outer

0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 1>then we have with joy and peace and harmony. Maybe

0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:16.160
<v Speaker 1>my song selections in the future will reflect feeling more

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 1>comfortable in my peace and joy and harmony. But for now,

0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:24.839
<v Speaker 1>let's stick to some sad ships. The first song that

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to say is probably if I always said

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:31.680
<v Speaker 1>that if there was a song that could describe my life,

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 1>that it would be this song. And it's so sad

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.800
<v Speaker 1>in Its Secret Garden by Bruce Springsteen, which I have

0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 1>done a cover of If It Be Shred Big, and

0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:58.120
<v Speaker 1>I did the cover for our radio show, and I

0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 1>remember being in my knees say the song and then

0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>like just bawling my eyes out. By the end of it.

0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 1>I was praying to God that I can make it

0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 1>through it, which I didn't, But that was actually kind

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:10.400
<v Speaker 1>of the sweetness of the performance. But I just revisited

0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:12.560
<v Speaker 1>this song the other day, and there's a reason why

0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Secret Garden has been my favorite song which just could

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.000
<v Speaker 1>describe my life. And it's this depth of loneliness that

0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:19.960
<v Speaker 1>I felt like there was always a piece of me

0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:23.719
<v Speaker 1>that even I had hidden the way from myself, because

0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:27.880
<v Speaker 1>if I hit it away then from my own self,

0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>then truly no one would be able to get to

0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:34.360
<v Speaker 1>this piece of me and take it from me. For me.

0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:36.960
<v Speaker 1>With music, there's there seems to be layers to songs

0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:39.880
<v Speaker 1>like I'll Know Why, I know the loneliness that I

0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:42.560
<v Speaker 1>feel when I listened to this song the last lines

0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 1>of um Cry talking about it, um the She's got

0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:50.720
<v Speaker 1>a secret Garden where everything you want and everything you

0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:54.039
<v Speaker 1>need will always stay a million miles away. That's sad,

0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:58.320
<v Speaker 1>that's sad, but that's why it's one of my Holy five.

0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh if we if so, if my guests took this

0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:07.720
<v Speaker 1>long describing every reason and why each of their songs

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:11.800
<v Speaker 1>was important to them, we would never have any other podcast.

0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Um okay. Song number two is a song called Blower's

0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Daughter by Damien Rice. When this song came out, I

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:24.520
<v Speaker 1>listened to it over and over and over again. I

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.160
<v Speaker 1>still do. If it comes on, it's just like I

0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:30.320
<v Speaker 1>have to stop what I'm doing. It's like Secret Garden,

0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 1>same thing. I stop what I'm doing and I have

0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:42.200
<v Speaker 1>to take in the song because it's that good. I

0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:48.160
<v Speaker 1>can't take my eyes. But I remember I was filming

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:52.000
<v Speaker 1>a video what probably wouldn't be this way where I

0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:55.600
<v Speaker 1>had to cry through. It was an emotional video. I

0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:57.840
<v Speaker 1>would listen to this song before I would go do

0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:00.760
<v Speaker 1>a take. It was the one thing that always brought

0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:03.960
<v Speaker 1>me to that place where I just could emote. I

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:07.520
<v Speaker 1>do remember at that time in my life kind of

0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:10.840
<v Speaker 1>knowing my marriage was over, and I think there's something

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:14.920
<v Speaker 1>about that song that I tied into that feeling of

0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:19.840
<v Speaker 1>just knowing that something is over and that I felt

0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.760
<v Speaker 1>like I couldn't get out of it. And so whenever

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I hear that song now, I actually do take a

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:30.160
<v Speaker 1>moment and remember that feeling and remind myself, like how

0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:34.320
<v Speaker 1>far I've come since then? The sadness or the tears

0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:37.160
<v Speaker 1>that come now listening to that song are very different

0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:42.800
<v Speaker 1>tears than the tears that once were. Number three. Song

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:47.280
<v Speaker 1>number three is a song called Promise by Ben Howard.

0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>I love the song so much. Actually, to be honest,

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know exactly what the song is about.

0:07:57.120 --> 0:08:00.520
<v Speaker 1>It's a feeling I get when I listened to the

0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:06.040
<v Speaker 1>record and his voice. To me, it really doesn't even

0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:10.480
<v Speaker 1>matter what he's saying in this song. It is. It's

0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:13.080
<v Speaker 1>the feeling that it brings up in me. There's something

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.320
<v Speaker 1>about the divine feminine that it brings up in me

0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 1>and I it's a song that I put on when

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to move my body and feel. What happens

0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 1>is there's a sensuality that comes up for me when

0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:28.720
<v Speaker 1>I moved to this song, and it's so uncomfortable. Movement

0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:31.560
<v Speaker 1>is something that's very uncomfortable for me. I think of

0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:35.880
<v Speaker 1>really lived outside of my body or in my head

0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:40.640
<v Speaker 1>for so long that any kind of sensuality and movement

0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:45.800
<v Speaker 1>is just challenging. But this song for me, something about Promise, Uh,

0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:48.720
<v Speaker 1>takes me to a place where I don't touch very

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:52.079
<v Speaker 1>often in myself, and so it's not I don't even

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:54.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know if it's necessarily sad, but I

0:08:54.760 --> 0:09:09.079
<v Speaker 1>do cry to it. Ah, I have to really go

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:13.280
<v Speaker 1>look at that lyric. Number four is Joni Mitchell's Case

0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:16.360
<v Speaker 1>of You. First off, it's in the movie Practical Magic,

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:18.400
<v Speaker 1>which I think is actually where I first heard it.

0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:23.280
<v Speaker 1>I think this reminds me of of Eddie, of being

0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:27.079
<v Speaker 1>that drunk on love with someone. I love singing it.

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:30.679
<v Speaker 1>I cover it all the time, and the melody in

0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:33.280
<v Speaker 1>that song is just so stunning and lyrically too, but

0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:38.120
<v Speaker 1>for me melodically and the way that JOONI always so

0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:45.839
<v Speaker 1>effortlessly moved up a scale is stunning sweet. Okay, so

0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:57.080
<v Speaker 1>that would stupid beyond that. And for song number five, Um,

0:09:57.200 --> 0:10:00.160
<v Speaker 1>my latest discovery is this song called Heavenly f there

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:03.680
<v Speaker 1>by Bonavire. His lyrics are so interesting to me because

0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I've I've actually heard him be like, oh the song

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:11.520
<v Speaker 1>is really about nothing, just kind of sounded cool together. Um,

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:15.959
<v Speaker 1>I actually went in Google like the lyric to the

0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:18.640
<v Speaker 1>song and I don't know if he's talking about his father,

0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:23.320
<v Speaker 1>but it actually reminds me also of I think he's

0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 1>talking both. I think he's talking about Heavenly Father as

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:27.760
<v Speaker 1>in God, and I think he's also talking about his

0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:46.400
<v Speaker 1>father who passed away. It's the best song, Adam. I

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:48.400
<v Speaker 1>was never sure how much of you I could let

0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:51.720
<v Speaker 1>in like those lyrics. For me, it was about God

0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 1>um And for me what it touches is growing up

0:10:56.120 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>in an organized religion and I own relationship and the

0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 1>journey it's taken from not wanting to let in a

0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:11.760
<v Speaker 1>higher power to be in all about it, but the

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:15.760
<v Speaker 1>true journey of that. And have I loved the last

0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:19.800
<v Speaker 1>line is Heavenly Father, all that you offers a safety

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:22.959
<v Speaker 1>in the end. It's so good. It's such a good song.

0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:27.000
<v Speaker 1>So if you feel like crying today, please go put

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.000

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.400
