Some songs we remember all our lives, some only when reminded. I heard this one today on the radio on the way home from work. Life experiences has made this one mean so much more now than it did then... (if you know me on fb then you seen this posted tonight w/o the sentiments included)

Old Songs
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
Edgar Allan Poe

Re: Old Songs
It's pretty amazing how music can instantly snap you back into a time, place or memory. IIRC it's said that music does that better than taste, sight or smell does. It likely has something to do with the way we store memories and the way music is stored and referenced. I don't remember all the details but likely would have if it was set to music ;P
