The love of my life is Paramore. I've been a fan of Paramore for at least 11 years now (I may be earlier). And I've been going to their concerts since I was 13 years old. I am 23 years old now. If you would tell me a little bit that almost 12 years later I would have been singing on stage with my favorite band?!?! I would never have believed you. The band that's been with me through it all??!?! I never thought I would be picked on in the misery of business. If I had known this would happen, I would have written them a letter to give it to them. The message was supposed to say something along the lines of, "Thank you for sharing your art and your heart with the world. I know you're not perfect (ie, Idle Worship lol). In fact, it's your willingness to be open about the flaws and vulnerabilities that make us feel seen. This It's what sets Paramore apart. Your candor about your struggles - with mental health, heart, identity, community, etc. - makes us feel understood. We feel like someone else is getting it. Your art helps us get through our own struggles and hard times. One of the reasons I love Paramore's music So deeply is that it always seems like a way of venting. It allows us to scream, vent, cry, rage, dance, and love freely. It is a way of expression. It is the roar in my chest whenever I sing one of your songs; It is ringing to the bone and more...family. It has It got me to so many places and I've made so many amazing friends through Paramore. It's a community like no other. It's so full of love and passion. You'll always feel at home. Paramore will always be the love of my life. So thank you for your art. We're all better because of that.
