Lithium
Thursday, February 16th, 2006This is an idea I’ve had basically since I decided on the “Elements” concept. Lithium is commonly associated with the treatment of depression. However, it is actually a mood stabilizer, meaning that it can also be used to treat mania, making it good for bipolar disorder. So this song goes through a few phases … sad ones, a more upbeat one, and finally, a stabilized portion at the end, signifying the effects Lithium might have on a bipolar person. Furthermore, they’re all basically made up of the same musical elements, just as Lithium can affect your mood, but doesn’t fundamentally change the circumstances in your life.
