There's this feeling I just got from finally finding that one song from my childhood that I never knew the title of so I was convinced I dreamed it until now...

Oh man, I was looking for... something, and I couldn't figure out what it was, until it hit me, that I was hearing Meir Banai's song When I Was a Child in my head... So. Since I won't find it on Tumblr, but I'm putting it here for any fellow music lovers. The chorus translated from Hebrew by me, after the vid.

Faraway land Is playing in my head, The sound of forgotten magic. Lost land And I am there alone, And the light in it is soft.

A small millennial achievement of mine is probably still the fact that I once saw Wheatus perform Teenage Dirtbag live. Anyway, for absolutely no reason at all, I am really vibing with 90s and early 2000s music right now so if anybody wants to drop nostalgic recommendations, feel free :)

I don't care how good your music is, nothing will ever replace Serious Trouble from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time as my personal n.1

I always thought of myself as a "music buff". I loved music in so many forms. I obviously loved the music my parents brought me up with; which was their tastes I suppose. My Mom had a love for Neil Diamond and Elvis Presley. My Dad, I guess I never really knew back when I was younger who his favorites were. In fact, I am still not sure who they are. Perhaps I should look into that before I no longer can.
My taste in music was a wide variety though. However, what I lacked in, was a knowledge of the members of all the bands that I had a passion for. I knew songs, not always the titles. I knew a few lyrics, not always full tunes. I definitely did not know artists, singers, drummers, guitar players. I suspect when I was growing up I may have known more but as I got older and had children, I definitely became "absent" in the world of anything that wasn't in the life of a child. I am almost ashamed to admit that I barely knew who Kurt Cobain was when he passed away. I mean, of course I had heard of Nirvana, but to have known the whole story of him and his life and to have truly known him, I did not. I was too buy raising small boys to even entertain the idea of listening to anything other than Barney and Winnie the Pooh. I also think, at that stage in my life, I may have been listening to country music or going to dance clubs on the few nights I did go out. I knew the Macarena dance moves, and the lyrics to "Baby Got Back" but there were so few things in life I had time for truly.
When someone comes into your life and either introduces you to good music or perhaps they just simply take the time to teach you about music, artists and how to appreciate something that you once truly loved all over again, you will never forget that person. You also generally never forget the moment that they first made this happen.
For me it was when I was asked who my favorite artist was and I couldn't name anyone and he responded with Dave Grohl. I was so embarrassed when I didn't know who that was. Even more so now.
He made it my homework assitnment to learn who he was and to listen to the Foo Fighters. I will never forget. I took that assignment very seriously. I found a documentary on Netflix and watched it that night. I was sold. I fell in love with Dave and with Taylor Hawkins. I think perhaps I fell in love with all of them to be honest.
Since that day, the man that brought me to that moment has brought me so many more songs and artists and moments in those artists lives. I have looked at stories and documentaries. I know so much about Kurt Cobain now and have fallen in love with so much of his music and have cried about losing such an amazing talent. I will be touching on so many of these stories and songs and artists he has brought into my world. It's oe of the greatest gifts he has ever given back to me.
Dave Grohl. I can't believe that I ever said that I didn't know who that was. I am ashamed of the girl that sputtered those words. I knew a lot of music, good music before that day, but my true appreciation for it has never been what it is like it is since that day.
Perhaps we all have that defining music moment.

Normally I don't like listening to music I used to listen when I was a kid on my iPod. Either it was cringe or it was just bad memories, I lost most of them regardless.
So going out of my way to buy Speak Now (Taylor's Version) is something that I would not do at all. I enjoyed it a lot when I was younger but I never thought about digging around for it. Positive it's in a box in the jungle of the attic.
Maybe it was the ghost of Taylor Swift going "b e c o m e a s w i f f e r" or childhood beckoning me, but I did it. And it was not cringe at all. I was shocked. I seriously enjoyed listening to "Speak Now", "Back to December", "Haunted" (still my top 5 favorites). It was like going into a good time within my childhood.
Thank you Taylor Swift. Although I'm not sure why you are spiking in popularity now (outside of redoing your albums which hell's bells yeah you go for it girlie), you helped me enjoy some good times with just one album.

Rhythm of My Heart by Rod Stewart is a song that carries some happy moments in my mind.
I believe it was 1990 in the fall or perhaps 1991... driving with two of my then best friends in a car. We would sing and laugh on the top of our lungs. One of my friends was about to jump head first into her life with the boy,not quite a man, of her dreams. She decided not to go back to school but rather to join him in life. If my memory serves me, he had been in some branch of the military and was in California. She could not be more excited. My other friend and I were excited for her to make this move.
This friend of mine had been "in love" with this boy for years before he'd even acknowledge that she was more than a pair of large ties.
I can still see the photo of her in her yellow Polka Dot shirt and white capris standing next to me on our final day together before she left.
Although years later, our friendship of countless years would end, this song will forever remind me of her and our happier times.
I know that after many years of marriage she eventually went through a divorce from that boy. I don't know the story and I don't care if I ever do, "Rhythm of My Heart " will always be the song that made me believe that some dreams are worth chasing.
