one hit wonders are strange

was just watching donnie darko there and that song mad world came on at the end and all of a sudden i felt like what i felt like at the time that was out in the charts.

it is strange how songs that are one hit wonders can remind you of the exact time. the feeling is confusing though because it's like one emotion.

when you listen to bands you have in your collection you don't generally get that feeling because you listen to them all the time maybe?

oh i'm not expressing this right but if i hear a one hit wonder from the early 70s 80s 90s or 2000s then i feel something different each time like my whole experience then was all one feeling.

the reason i'm posting in spirituality is because i'm a very spiritual guy and it's weird how the mind can condense a whole period of time into one emotion when looking back.

is the spirit outwith our own mental judgement so that it can let us percieve things in a beautiful light so that we can become better human beings in the future?

Re: one hit wonders are strange

Mad World wasn't technically a onehit wonder. It was a hit for two different musicians.

And this is not philosophy.

Yeah, it was a smash for the original musicians?

It was on Tears For Fears first album, released in 1983. It went straight to number one and stayed in the charts for over a year.

So, yes.
