So I was listening to this old Vaness Carlton CD (shut up, and I absent-mindedly got lost in this memory. It was this one time I had a guy over who I had a crush on. I changed tracks; it hadn't worked out. Then the next song, too, reminded me of something else that'd happened when I'd been playing the CD a million years ago.
What is it about certain pieces of music that just make you well up--capture what you're feeling? Why does that bittersweet letdown occur when a song you love is over?
It's like...I dunno--a bit of who you are. Just musing. Current Music: Bob Marley
