Friday Favorites

Listening to the radio
Listening to the radio while driving
Listening to the radio while driving with the windows down
Hearing an all-time favorite song whilst doing all of the above!
Mr. Big's To Be With You (love love LOVE that song)

As a side note : I must acknowledge that not all appreciate my taste in music which was made apparent to me when I tried to find the above-mentioned song on iTunes and it is a mere 69 cents!  Ha! - awesome for me!! 

I've found that my taste in music really has more to do with the memories associated with the song than the song/lyrics itself - though they play an obvious role.  To Be With You was freshman year of college.  Barely 19 + dorm-life + superb friendships + spring in the air + dancing down the hallways +  cute boys + tennis + new car... all tallied up to a virtually carefree (if you don't count those nasty finals) collegiate wonderland. Ooooh! - love those memories.

So when I hear Mr. Big on the radio... the windows come down ... and the littles know that it's time to dance in our seats and sing (loudly) ..."I'm the one who wants to be with you!!"

    I love hearing an old favorite on the radio too. It totally makes my day. And I'm all about songs with memories. In fact, I have compiled a life soundtrack! Lol - I'm a dork.
