Good life
We really live a good life now.
I remember when I was really young, finding music was really a bitch.
There are many times when we heard great songs over the radio, and we have simply no chance of listening to them again, unless the radio plays it, or you buy the cassette/cd.
For poor students like us, the latter was never an option. So what to do? You keep playing those songs in your mind, and you knock your head whenever you get stuck in one part.
Or you patiently wait on the radio until the song appears again, armed with an empty cassatte sat ready in the cassette slot.
There was once I really loved this song I heard over the radio. Yes, it was an English song, and it was named "Stay the Same" by Joey Mcintyre. I didn't know why I loved it so much. Perhaps the tune was catchy, the English was simple yet meaningful, totally suitable for someone who had a poor command of the language back then.
I actually waited on 98.7fm beside the radio for many hours for a few days! Just for this song to reappear, so I can capture it on my little cassette tape.
Nowadays, it's so simple for us. Heard any nice song? Just google it, and tada! In some obsure corner of the World Wide Web, the song will be tucked in nicely, waiting for your consumption.
Within a few minutes, the song gets played into your ears. Beautiful.
We really live a good life now.
I kinda miss k-ing. Please jio me after the 6th of April!
