songs that i could never bear to delete

wow ok one day before my final history exam and here i am making playlists
anyway yes don't you think it's so damn wonderful how certain songs can take you to certain places, evoke certain memories, and they give you this unique, aural experience that couldn't be replicated in any other way - which is perhaps why music is so empowering.  and it's so nice to know that some experiences are shared, some experiences are deep and personal and some experiences take you to another world entirely.
and so here is a list of songs that take me back to a whole different realm altogether, songs i've forgotten to listen to in ages, songs that serve as painful reminders of people and pasts i've so desperately wanted to forget, and songs that are reminiscent of a way, way better time.
