Most of the songs that I hold very dear to my heart leave me with a bittersweet feeling every time I listen to them. Usually those songs are attached to a very specific moment in my life. Some bad, some good, and some amazing. I suppose I'm just one of those people that has a problem letting go of the past because I never seem to get past those moments; a huge part of me longs to go back and relive them - at times, more than I should. This song does that very thing to me.


When I was younger I loved Weezer. Absolutely adored them. I thought Rivers Cuomo was my future husband. (Funny, eh?) My favorite album of theirs was (and still is) Pinkerton but I always had a soft spot for the Green Album's "Island In The Sun." I attribute this to the fact that the song itself has such a feel-good rhythm and message. It kinda gives people the fuzzies in their stomachs. I can recall dozens of specific memories linked to this song but I don't think it would do it justice. I can only say that the times in my life where this song has played, whether by choice or randomly, have always been good times. Always.
