Always Be My Baby

"You recognized what that was just hearing the first note?"

"Are you kidding? That first chord progression defined my entire teenhood." 

Joel and I discussing Mariah Carey's "Always Be My Baby."

Song five, below. (As if you need me to tell you that.)

Nothing like Mariah! The best is getting a nice Mariah tune randomly on the radio from the 90s; it always makes my day better and makes for a great jam session while in traffic =)

ugggggh, it's reminding me so hard of how life felt, like, desperately and tragically romantic when i was 14.

Oh dear god, I feel so OLD!

I love how music defines eras and songs are indelibly tied to such specific moments in our memories. My early teenhood was defined by Hungry Like the Wolf. *sigh*

Ha! Just heard this on the radio yesterday, for the first time in forever--and totally ROCKED OUT (read: sang at the top of my lungs) on the way to work. If I ever have a signature karaoke song, this would have to be it. (I guess I would have to find some awesome backup singers, too.) Still. Love. This. Song.
