When I hear certain songs they take me back to a specific place and location in time. When I hear Cult of Personality by Living Colour I always get taken back to eighty-nine when I was driving down highway five-eighteen. I was heading towards four-oh-five going in to Tukwila. It was going to be the first day of my fire cadet training with the Tukwila Fire Department.<\/p>\n
The song Battle of Evermore by Led Zeppelin remind me of driving my truck around the highlands after I got my license. I was cruising with friends and I had some Oreo cookies.<\/p>\n
Then there is the song Ziggy Stardust by David Bowie. That takes me to ninety-three when I was living in Stephenson East. I was also doing a radio show. That was one of the song I would play and it just reminds me of my freshman year at college.<\/p>\n
The Offspring’s song Smash takes me back to May of ninety-seven. I was in my apartment. The first time living on my own like that. I had all sorts of dishes my mom bought and I was washing all of them by hand. It was taking a long time. I did not have cable yet because I had just moved in. I just got Smash, the Album, so I listened to that over and over and over while I was working.<\/p>\n
An old one is Kenny Rogers’ Coward of the County. I was in day care at Busy Bee. The lady who drove us to Apollo everyday asked to borrow my record. It was a single with that song on it. I handed it to her one day getting into the van. I remember her putting the record in the pocket of her vest. I remember when I got it back there was a scratch on it and I was very sad about that.<\/p>\n
It is strange how certain songs can take you to a very specific place in time and how for some reason those events get tied in your mind to that event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
