There's a problem, feathers iron

On the way in to work I heard 'Fall On Me' by REM on the radio and smiled. I had it on a CD maxi-single that I stole grabbed quickly & ran with from my days where endless numbers of CDs were mine for the taking as long as I got to them first. While I love REM & this song, I knew someone who loved it more & I gave it to him without another thought. To this day, I still don't have it on CD. I keep forgetting to get it, as I won quite a few of REM's albums in a contest I cheated at had connections for & keep thinking I have Life's Rich Pageant but don't.

A few days from now is a 5 year anniversary of something very special to me, again involving music. This time, someone who loves Smashing Pumpkins more than I do offered me his newly-bought Adore CD. I declined, only because I was going to buy it for myself as soon as the store opened. There was more to that day than just this act, but I think about it a lot since it was the beginning of a foundation for Ryan & I.

I was going someplace with all this, but I forget where. Something about how I haven't heard anything new for a long time that I tie in with people and that's depressing to me. Does that association fade when you get older? Does it mean there's mostly crap out for new music now?

I'm not sure.

Oddly enough, I happen to OWN the "Fall on Me" maxi-single. I'd be happy to copy lend you my backup CD. Strange how the world moves in circles...
