Three weeks ago, Rhys made me listen to Westlife. Well after ages, i took the time to waste on youtube,just to listen to Westlife. And it made me realize how much I use to love their music. Songs like Swear It Again and Fool Again. This song use to be like the Justin Bieber music for me when I was young.
Me being such a person, I got addicted to Westlife all over again, and i was feeling very gay with it. And i was kept on streaming the songs online. Like the whole album and it made me feel really really happy and the memories when I was a kid and how me and my sister and dad use to sit and watch MTV. And i was feeling , how good was all that, growing up. Haih, we just have too.
I decided to download the album, and also Green Day's American Idiot too. I mean I use to lose these songs and it was definitely on replay. And I was also making all my friends listen to it. That joy, when my friend knows one Westlife song. Priceless.
While I was driving today, I was thinking about my childhood a lot. And as usual, thinking too much. As now I'm on this phase where I wanna let go of my past that I don't wish to remember, does music make me not forget all this. Like since it brought back memories, and tone honest, music is the only thing I depend on my whole life, as it runs in the blood to be a music lover.
Is it a good thing to just listen to old song?
There are two ways for us to look at the situation.
Obviously, the good and the bad.
Theres always two side to a story.
Half of me thinks its actually a good thing, that music actually brings back a lot of memories. And it makes us realize, how much we have evolved since. Change is something good, and for a music like me, I'm positive, that music has changed me in many ways. And now I'm 20. With music, it bring back memories, that is fading among the people I love, like how I use to connect to my dad via music, as now I see him very rarely. Listening to these musics, makes me to connect myself with him more. Like listening to Santana all the way to Penang, memories. :) Moreover, my childhood, was not perfect, i skinned my heart and my knees too. Skinned knees was healed. And skinned heart, music healed it. That time, there was not good friends like today. And today, we tend to depend so much to our good friends, because they music that is created this generation does not have any meaning and its not something we can relate ourself too to feel so much better.
And those song that we can relate our emotions too, is not mainstream. Stuff like teaching us Monday to Friday is called mainstream music today.
Then there is the other half, that thing its not really a good thing, that these songs bring back so much to us. So much of pain that we've gone through that even the problems you had when you were 12 years old is all coming back. And listening to these songs, doesn't not let us let go of the old memories. to create new ones. Do we really need to let go? Now, that all is coming back, we tend to be so cautious to everything we are doing, in order to not get hurt, and forget the fact that we are missing a lot in life, and in future, we might just regret that we didn't do something we wish to do, just because of fear.
As it is for today, I'm gonna listen and make myself happy and learnt from every single good and bad memories, because I believe,
the past lead us to the road we are walking today.
