I'm feeling a bit nostalgic tonight. I was doing a bit of channel hopping on my telly tonight and came across a Music Channel screening music videos of the biggest Hits '87-'07. The memories that came flooding back.... I suddenly felt very mature (I prefer mature to old....). as they took me on a journey of my own life spanning over 2 decades. Isn't it amazing how you can associate a specific memory, place, person or even smell with a certain song. Whether its an old school crush, that first love, a moment in you favourite movie, a special memory with mom or dad, a happy time spent with a friend or whatever the reminder may be, every tune is worth it!
This is my wish for 2008 and beyond:
May the music keep playing, so it can trigger those beautiful moments in our lives that we sometimes lose in our heads.

I have the same memory trip when I hear music like this. A few months ago when a friend’s teenage daughter came to stay with us, I realised just how “mature” we are: she asked me my favourite bands and I mentioned the likes of Bon Jovi and U2 – she did not know who they are! How can you claim to have lived and not know these guys?
I of course did not have a clue about the bands she liked, and I guess she askes the same question about me…
