The song that kind of started me on this jaunt is�and keep in mind my disclaimers in the previous ��the song is, um, "Take A Picture" by Filter. That's right. There, it's off my chest. I listened to it the other day and I must admit I got kind of veklempt, to be quite honest. I have no real knowledge or desire for knowledge of any other songs in the Filter ouevre, except I know that I hate that "Hey Man Nice Shot" song. But this one song gets to me in a way I was embarrassed to admit to until just now, when I decided to come out of the guilty pleasures closet. The song doesn't really conjure many memories of the time when it was popular, except I remember it came out the winter of 1999/2000, a time when I was kind of sad and confused, a feeling that the song suits well, I guess. Laugh if you must, but I bet you have your own secret song.
Anyway, but my main point is that, when I listened to it the other day, I could think only of everything that's happened in the three years since. A lot of people come and gone�more gone, really�and I'm a little older and maybe a bit wiser�more older, really.
