Everyone has that one song. It may not be your fav but you can't deny it... like crack, or better yet... a speed induced automotive time machine. "Doc? You there Doc?"
That rare time you hear it on the radio, you neglect the conversation and start waving, head banging, or shimmying to it. A song that takes you back to your most memorable year in high school, or your first psychedelic experience (haha, whatever that may be... or include), that first boyfriend or girlfriend, that time the song played during an awkward silence, or that time you decided to take a walk in the middle of winter with your iPod and wiped-out on the sidewalk in front of a huddle of smokers on the porch of the house you're passing? Good times.
Mine happens to be by Big Wreck, a song appropriately named 'That Song' (with Eagle Eyed Cherry's 'Save Tonight' in second, and House of Pain's 'Jump Around' winning the bronze medal... and yes I can recite those lyrics, I did watch Mrs. Doubtfire).
Overarching moral of this blog entry? Take time out to recognize and relish those once in a lifetime moments, and buy winter boots with traction. "No worries! I'm alright! That was intentional!" :)
