Freckles.

Electra Gerolymbou, a 3rd year English Literature student at university shared with me her story. Thus explaining why 'Freckles' by Natasha Bedingfield is important to her:

"Basically when I was younger, and at school I didn't have too great a time. I didn't have any friends and was constantly teased about how I looked and my weight. Now I believe that this song reflects me perfectly - it still does."


She also explains what the song means lyrically: 


"It's essentially a song about how a person who is practically perfect without any imperfections, isn't neccessarily what people want. As the song says 'a face without freckles is like a sky without the stars'."

I hadn't heard of the song before Electra told me about it but lyrically it is beautiful and so very true! Beauty isn't just skin deep, it's inside what counts :)

& thankyou Electra for sharing your story :)
