Nostalgic Music Blog

• Nostalgia is the want or desire to go back to a certain time, event, or period of time. In a sense, it's reminiscing. However, in doing so, you black out all of the bad things that happened during these times, and it only comes back to you as this perfect era that you lived through, and all you want is to go back to it (at the time).
• When I hear this music, I always think of my dad. Although he was born in '67, 60's and 70's music is his forte. I recognize a lot of the songs and I can picture us on the car ride up to his house in Frankfort, with the music up and the windows down, my dad singing along to every song.
• When I think about my childhood, I think about the times when my parents were together and we were living in London. I think about all the parks we went to, and I remember the sunshine glowing down on us, all the running, the giggling, the picking of "flowers" that were actually just weeds, and the silence. When we were together, no one else mattered. No one else was around. It was just me, my mom and my dad.
  Adding on to this, I never remember my brother being there. Jacob is just two years younger than me, but I never have him in any of my memories. Guess that's just me blocking out the bad ;)
