Wow.
So, with the 90-minute commute I've had the last month or so, I've been going through my CDs and listening to ones I haven't in ages, or just don't listen to enough in general.
Yesterday it was Pretty Hate Machine, which I played the hell out of in high school (that and the Downward Spiral.)
Sitting in my car with Nine Inch Nails blasting out the speakers, it was almost like I was 16 again. I could see why the younger me was so drawn to it, and look at that little bit of history like an interesting rock I picked up off the ground. I mean, damn but Trent Reznor spoke to my teen angst. (What? I had angst as a teen! I just never really thought I did at the time, I guess.)
Is that what people who associate X with Y feel when they experience X again? It's a completely new thing for me.
