I am aging. I found that I have somewhat lost interest in a lot of the new music that is out these days. I only listen to the goldies radio station, and occasionally class 95. I get excited when a familiar favourite comes on air, and the best part is very often I can remember the lyrics and tune, and sing along.
The only regret is that the indie songs I love so much never saw the light of day on the radio during their time, and I am simply too lazy to dig out those treasured CDs which I have to listen to them again, so somehow they have been banished to one corner of my mind. Why is this so? I have no idea. Kind of sad.... Well, maybe when I go to the States and start missing home, I will crave for these songs. Think I better bring some of them CDs over to the States.
Current retro list that I wish to listen to:
1. No Myth (Michael Penn)
2. Fast Cars (Tracy Chapman)
3. Fall At Your Feet (Crowded House)
4. Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money) (Pet Shop Boys)
5. Superwoman (Karyn White)
6. Your Baby Never Looked Good In Blue (Exposé)
7. Stay Together (Suede)
8. You've Got A Friend (James Taylor)
Hmm... only 1 indie song here, what a sad sad situation.
Actually, I would be satisfied with just listening to the Crowded House greatest hits. Okay, definitely going to bring that to USA. I need some good old ozzie tunes!
