used to be a huge Sheryl Crowe fan.
loved that pop rock with organ sound and her lyrics. gosh this goes back nearly 20 years ago! loved the time i was driving highway home listening to my favorite songs like Run Baby Run, NaNa Song, Change, If it makes you happy, home etc and singing my guts out was the best remedy I had for a stressful day you know. cassettes tapes at that too! bloody hell
I could drive and drive and drive my blue mini till the break of the day no shit. sometimes I swung by at my friends Anna or Sam or what's his name Steve! 's place for the company and literally we drove all night.
and at dawn I enjoyed the gentle warmth of sun on my cheeks while I smoked Marlboro longing for hot black coffee. we'd stop by a diner on the way back for greasy pancakes or French toast for breakfast.
I don't smoke now. health? yes. vanity? oh yes. same as my friend Kate.
boy they were fun times.
and bitter sweet all at the same.
sometimes I wonder what my friends are doing now. got married have family work 9 to 5 dreaming of tomorrow or yesterday?
why I'm writing this is, really, what I want to say is that I'm right back into 90's music! Deee-lite, garbage, alanis morsette, Melissa etheridge, ru paul, nirvana, heather nova, you know artists you used to sing along to while dreaming of boys once loved and gone whether it was one way or two way thing.
I know now among all that angst I was a lucky one and I am loving revisiting those music now at moment. I'm finding new appreciation for their sounds though.
bitter sweet loving
put some sugar and stir it!
so right I say!
