It has happened to all of us. You hear a song that takes you back to a specific time and place. Whether it be your childhood, college or an experience that has drastically changed your life, for the good or the bad, you?re transformed back into that moment in time.
Last weekend Monica and I worked from home and she played music from her Gaslight Anthem Pandora station (we?re obsessed with this Jersey band so much so that I think we?ve convinced Farrah to come out to their next show). While some obscure bands came up that we never heard of, I was ecstatic when Jimmy Eat World?s ?A Praise Chorus? came on.
?Are you gonna live your life wonderin? standing in the back lookin? around?
Are you gonna waste your time thinkin? how you?ve grown up or how you missed out?
Things are never gonna be the way you want.
Where?s it gonna get you acting serious?
Things are never gonna be quite what you want.
Even at 25, you gotta start sometime.
?
Someone?s gonna ask you what it?s all about
Stick around nostalgia won?t let you down
Someone?s gonna ask you what it?s all about
Whatcha gonna have to say for yourself??
