Anything that "Brings you Back"?

nice one for correcting the teenage wasteland problem,but also nice to hear that 16 year olds are taking the time to listen to classic british rock.many of those tunes take me back to the good days,most stuff by floyd,roger waters,the who,the kinks.i've just realised the list is endless so i will stop now.

Sometimes when I'm high, I'll be listening to my iPod, and be listening to bands that I've liked for at least 10 years, and I think of how long ago it seems, and I get depressed and feel like I'm getting old, or that I miss the old memories, and then I realize that I'm still young (I'm 17) and that 10 years from now, I'll be thinking of when I was 17, so I should enjoy my life and create new awesome memories.

Sometimes though, I'll get weed that reminds me of a weed I've had before, that makes me smile, because I love all the smells of cannabis, and it's nice to get one that smells like one that you haven't had for a while, or when you first started, if you get a high like that, etc...

But, when I first started smoking, my friends who would always smoke me out, etc.. would download songs on my computer and we'd listen to them, smoking songs, you know, like reggae, or phish and stuff like that. So, whenever I hear those songs on my computer I'll think of back then.

For instance, everytime I hear "Who's got the herb?" by 311, I think of when my friends (who now most of them are in college, so I don't get to see that often) were over, and all the fun times there were, etc..

Oh yeah, also, I remember when my friend introduced me to The Mars Volta. We went on this 2 hours trip to this crazy middle-of-no-where town, to get bud, so he played the CD over and over again. Also, when we when back, we listened to the (at the time) new Red Hot Chili Peppers cd Stadium Arcadium. I don't normally listen to that stuff now, I prefer metal, so whenever my iTunes randomly plays those songs, I reminess (sp) about those times traveling to get weed.

Also, when I was 13 the first time I ever got high (I didn't start seriously smoking until almost a year ago) my band was working on covering "God Called in Sick Today" by AFI, so whenever I hear it, my mind travels back to that day, and I can remember everything about it.

I don't like when this stuff happens because like I said I get a bittersweet feeling. I mean, because it's friends I don't see that much anymore, etc... and I seem to get losts in my thoughts for a long period of time.

Also shortly after I first started, my main smoking friends who were the ones who introduced me to it in the first place, well every weekend we'd all go in my room, and play poker, while listening to music. The song "That was a crazy game of poker" by OAR brings me back to then, because we listened to that alot.

It was so much fun. We'd play poker and smoke out of a homemade bong contructed out of a 5th of vodka that got me so high. This was when I was a beginner so this is when I'd get the most blazed I'd ever get. We'd stay up until late into the night. Go to bed at like 4 am, wake up around noon the next day, to a beautiful summer day. I miss those days.

That was before my mom's asshole fiance moved in...
