marymaryquitecontrary | MEMORY FROM 1995

Perhaps my favorite song of all time

LOCATION: Everywhere , Everywhere

YEAR: 1995

TAGS: love

PUBLISHED: August 26, 2008

Two years shy of entering high school, I was growing into me, growing into life, growing into my adolescent body, growing to love music that spoke to me.

This song spoke to me. I can't tell you the first time I heard it. I certainly can't tell you the last time I'll hear it. I CAN tell you that its impact never changes every time I hear it. And I can't hear it too much, too often.

Who is this person with the plaintive voice, the simple melody, the emotional delivery? I was hooked. I immediately purchased this CD and fell in love with every song on it.

But this song, THIS song is something special. The story it tells of love, of routine, of day-to-day, of life, it's incredible. It sells the concept that there is someone out there meant for you. And I bought it.

I've always felt a connection to this song. And yes, YOU were meant for me. You didn't know?
