Fell in love with a girl

One of my favourite White Stripes song, less than two minutes of hard guitars and another discussion of love in popular music.

And where would music be without love, and where would love be without music.

Why do some songs mean more than others to us and does the meaning change over time?

Why do some albums remain firm favourites and regulars on our playlists, turntables or car stereos?

Why do someone remain hidden, like an ugly stepchild, never to see the light of day despite being a firm favourite in another time and place?

I’m going to attempt to explore all of this, and then maybe some more, and hopefully my readers will come along for the journey, with submissions or just by requesting my thoughts on a particular song, album or even whole genre of music. I’ve got something to say about it all.
