Repeatedly
This is crazy; I don't know why I'm doing it. Repeatedly.
When I was seeing the skunk (what seems like a lifetime ago), he made me a cassette tape of (mostly) really cool rock ballads. It was one of the few things I hung on to after I got Germ to dump him for me. In fact, it prolly was the best thing to come out of that blotched attempt at hetero-dating.
Unfortunately, as the years passed (and cassette players/walkmans became obsolete), I haven't been able to play that particular cassette tape. Last summer when I was home and packing up my old house, I found that tape and tried to play it in an old cassette player ... and managed to unravel it. So I had no choice but to throw the tape away (for, the spools not only unravelled very badly, but were also horribly mangled in the process).
Because I used to listen to that tape incessantly, I have a vague memory of most of the tracks it contained - and I have been trying to make myself a new (CD) copy ever since.
If I remembered correctly the tracks were:
+ 'I'd Lie For You (And That's The Truth)' by Meat Loaf
+ 'Bed Of Roses' by Bon Jovi
+ 'Always' by Bon Jovi
+ 'I Live My Life For You' by Firehouse
+ 'I Remember You' by Skid Row
+ 'I Won't Forget You' by Poison
+ 'Can't Fight This Feeling' by REO Speedwagon (My favorite!)
+ 'Never Say Goodbye' by Bon Jovi
+ 'I'll Be There For You' by Bon Jovi
+ 'Julia Says' by Wet Wet Wet
+ 'Back For Good' by Take That
There ought to be more tracks than these; a ninty-minute cassette tape should have the capacity for at least four more tracks. I'm just so frustrated that I can't remember the rest of the tracks.
I've managed to find most of the tracks I remember (not the Boyzone and Wet Wet Wet tracks though), and have been (since last night) been playing them, in the order they were in on the original cassette tape, repeatedly, with the addition of my latest finds, 'Don't Answer Me' and 'Miss You In A Heartbeat' (by Def Leppard).
This is crazy. (It is crazy, isn't it?)
