Old love song

Ever played an old song and then some very distant memory and feeling just come back up? It can be very vivid or very very vague. The first crush, or rather, the feeling you felt when you had your first crush. The first time you held hands, the first love, the first kiss.

Alternatively, the song can also bring up the first rejection, the first breakup, the first time someone cheated on you, or just simply: the first heartbreak.

I once tried to listen to the same song over and over again, to the point I just break down in tears. The same song now seems a bit... distant.

Not to mention I realise I deleted a few songs off my computer. And I'm kicking myself for it. Old songs are sometimes hard to find, especially the older Glay stuff.

Maybe it's a sign of healing, the fact that I can listen to those songs again, and actually just treat it as music rather than a reminder of the heartbreaks. Some of them are quite nice too, sorta bring back the feeling of being young and carefree.

Alright, after SMAP's Celery, I'll come back to 2004 and listen to the The Dark of the Martinee. :P
