Chilled cold Curepipe, Friday 8th of July. I forgot my lunch and needed to buy some food at the Arcades Currimjee. I wandered around to get a glimpse of what is being done and sold. I finally showed up in front of Librairie Le Trèfle where a children's book got my attention. I thought it would be great gift for my daughter. I decided to step in and got caught up by this snug and warm book shop, with some halogen lamps giving a great ambient light and adding some heat to the room.
Even though I was in a book shop, my attention got snatched by the background music. A nice folk alternative ballad played in a nice and non-intrusive volume from a great sound system. I was sort of smiling while looking at the books. My joy was doubled when the starting notes of 'Someday' from NickelBack sounded. It was as if I had my headphones on with the dynamic boost to the maximum. That was an awesome feeling. I could not hold myself from complimenting the shop assistant for that nice atmosphere and asked for the title of the first song which was still in my head; 'The HummingBird' - NeverShoutNever. I paid for my purchases and went for lunch.
The feeling was pushing inside; I went back to the book shop. I asked for the opportunity to write about that nice, warm, comfy atmosphere; which was greeted positively. Throughout the conversation with Amandine, we shared some titles and groups. Her first share is Mumford and Sons which I discovered with the title 'I will wait'. I messed it up by not noting it down, inverted the name while searching. I inadvertently discovered an amazing piece: 'The Stumble' - All Over Again. I had to call her back to confirm the group name and was glad to listen to some of the Mumford and Sons tracks. They are catchy and get you in the momentum they build up as the songs begin. I could hear my heart pounding with joy whilst the songs go along. The second share is in the same tone; Boy & Bear with 'A Moment Of Grace'. The title defines well this encounter, experience and sharing. I heartily thank the whole team of Librairie Le Trèfle for this nice setup and thank you Amandine for sharing. I truly enjoyed it! See you next time.
