You’ve already won me over, inspite of me

And don’t be alarmed if I fall, head over feet

Don’t be surprised if I love you for all that you are

I couldn’t help it…it’s all your fault!!

My alcoholic friends once told me that the best way to cure hangover is to drink some more. With this in mind, the best way to cure my musical hangover would be to listen to more music. This really drove me down memory lane, it’s amazing how listening to music can take you back and help you reminisce.

I’m going to list down some songs which are memorable to me and tell you why. I’ll tag some of you to do the same. =)

1. When I Met You (by APO) — as a child I prayed for a sign. I told God that I would know that I’m supposed to marry someone if that guy sings this song to me. 2 weeks after meeting Ruy, he sang this, I thought to myself “Damn. Kakainis naman itong lalaking ito now I have to think of a new sign now.”. I’m thinking God at that time wanting to hit me on the head and say “Eh gusto mo nang sign ngayong binigyan ka ayaw mo pansinin”

2. I Will be Here — One night my cellphone rang. “Hello?” I said. “Hi Liv…” a drunken voice replied. This drunken person proceeded to sing me this song…can you guess who that person was? RUY!!! wahahah. He’ll kill me for revealing this. 3 months after, I watched him sing this on stage. There were girls around me who were gushing over the guy singing the solo. Naks…

3.  Crazy by Britney Spears — It reminds me of my sister when she was a toddler. She would dance to this all day. It was sooo cute.

4. Everlasting Love by the Company — This is our song. It’s sooo accurate.

5. Ang Panginoon and aking Pastol — First Communion practices in St. Scho….I don’t know why, but somehow this song really takes me back. I remember the smell of the gym. My classmates. The ambiance…amazing!!

6. Time and Tide (and other Basia songs) — reminds me of my mom’s clinic. This is classic!!

Now…I tag you Ruy, Jen, Van, Litzie  . List down 6 songs which take you down memory lane and take us down there with you. =) Then tag 4 others to do the same.
