Cosmic Dancer


Orgasmic. That is the first word that comes to mind when Marc Bolan and T-Rex are playing. No matter the mood or the circumstances, Marc Bolan's vocals will seduce the ears and hearts of anyone easily inspired or open to spiritual freedom.
The music generates a unique high that no one can deny, and even the most uptight can't help but be swayed by the effortless groove that emanates from this band.
     Smooth genius oozes out of the very lips of Marc Bolan when he opens them to sing or cause a girl's heart to go into palpitations when he shrieks unexpectedly during a song while shaking his wild mane at random.

     "Cosmic Dancer," one of T Rex's classics, is a favorite of mine. To me, the song is an example of someone who has known what they love in life and have done it from time they were born, to the time that they died.
"I danced myself out of the womb
"Is it strange to dance so soon
"I danced myself into the tomb" 
     The symbolism of this song radiates inspiration to me because I love the idea of doing something you love without shame till the day that you die.
     "Get It On" and "Mambo Sun" are two other classics of his but are just a few of the many wonderful songs that he contributed to.

To this day, Marc Bolan's effortless talent is still appreciated and admired. Even though he left us all too early, his legendary performances as a free-minded musician still inspire today.
And if ever you need a pick me up or legal high, turn on some of T Rex's tunes and allow them to take your mind out of this world and turn you into a cosmic dancer. Believe me, you won't regret it.
