This was playing when.............

So I had been thinking about doing a post about this awhile back but things just coming up and i got sidetracked. But, today when i was in the car with my new ??? partner in crime, she was listening to some old Janet and I was like do you have "Again" and she was like, it's the next song.... and so i stayed in her car listening to the words, reminiscing about the days i used to play that TAPE over and over again. It was the first time i thought i was in love. I guess i must have really thought i was in love cuz i tatted his name on my body....and he made me feel this way and i never even slept with him. (but that's a story for another day) so when he left the Chi to head back to Alabama, i was crushed as only a 16 yr old could be crushed. I played this song over and over and over again. and i cried and cried and cried over again. So anyways i got to thinking about the other songs that i hear that gets me to reminiscing about my past, or my present...
