"songs you cant play and the stories behind them"

jon b - they dont know

my first day in north carolina i met *HER*. bennett bell from dc(i love dc women), freshman, stayed primped up. i met her and all her friends at the same time. i got her number and we chatted. i summed her up as not worth it and left it at that.

fast forward 2 years. im in a relationship with a younger girl, im cheating on her, she is salty and is making me cut off my female friends and i aint havin it. so i dump her. and remeet *HER*. funnny thing is the girl who made me remeet her is a girl who i had been in love with since my first day in north carolina. i met her an hour after i met *HER* and i had been chasing her ever since to no avail, i mean we had sex and whatnot but whats sex when you want the whole thing? at anyrate she hooked me up with *HER*. we went on a date, talked about my disintegrating relationship and clicked off bat.

that night in my car when i picked her up she had jon b with her. and i told her i wasnt playin that wack shit, we laughed and she told me i would hear it before the night is over. movies, dinner, park... jon b. she touched my hand and told me "i would have never imagined you to turn out to be this cool" and jon b sang.

i wrote her a poem about that night. i still have the poem i wrote her i believe it was called S.S.I.K. sexual stimulations inherent knowledge or some shit. i read it to her a few weeks later in my bed. she was a virgin and wasnt givin up no ass. but she liked me. she gave me the promise of ass. then she told me she was gonna be going online for delta soon so we may not have time to spend or talk and asked if i could deal. i said i could. she said cool. we had a celebration later that week, cards exchanged and and jon b sang.

she left that cd in the player that night went on line. i dealt. then the ex came back....

"make up sex just makes a mess/a bad situation at best we was takin a rest/ tryna sweat away the stress but that shit dont work/ it just trivialize the lies and compromise the hurt"

i was there to watch *HER* cross, she gave me the biggest hug and i told her how proud i was of her. she heard about the ex being reinstated but she kept it all above board and said we would always be friends. told me she met someone else in the absence of my shoulder to lean on. i was jealous but i hid it well, im good at that. she was there for all my bday/house parties thereafter and even for the graduation party that the girl who i left her for didnt attend.

she married the guy who waited for her and knowing *HER* he is probably a happy husband, proud dad, and a best friend richer.

In response to Reply # 0


          

long painful story short:

dealing with this guy who has a beautiful voice, i'll call him the singer
and dealing with another guy i shouldn't have been, let's call him mr. wrong
felt like i was falling in love with the singer
but was still trying to figure out what was going on with mr. wrong before i proceeded elsewhere

mentioned to the singer this was my favorite track off the album
told him i'd love to hear him sing it
didn't think too much of it after that

two days later mr. wrong is over my house
we're discussing "us"
the singer calls and says he has a surprise for me
starts singing "butterflies"
sang the whole song *PERFECTLY*, high notes and everything lol
said he'd spent the last two days learning it ~just for me~
couldn't keep the smile off my face, or my feelings for him out of my voice
hung up, turned around to be confronted with "who was that" from mr. wrong

butterflies kinda became "our song" from that point on
(at least to me anyway)

decided then that mr. wrong and i were finished
gave my heart to the singer, who took his time destroying it and then handed it back to me in little pieces and now i can't listen to that song

it hurts too bad


bleh.

don't let me forget to email you my address don, okay?

My ex sang this entire song to me one night. What's so special is that he can't hold a note, but he sang it anyway and he did a good job too. We have a child together so I'll never be able to fully forget about him but everytime I hear this song I think of our happy times together and how special he made me feel that night.

26. "Amerie, "All I Have""
In response to Reply # 0


          


Got the album on the strength of "Why Don't We Fall In Love". Gave it a good listen all the way thru. Nothing mind-blowing about the album but it wasn't bad. Middle of the road.

Until "All I Have". Listening to the lyrics, I realize that it was exactly what she was thinking. Except she never conveyed that to me. I never got that one last kiss. She just left me.

Not broke up with me. She left me. No note, no phone call, nothing.

We had been having a rough time, but a lot of factors were contributing to that and they were all about to come to an end. I wasn't mad that she wasn't into it anymore, but I was angry at howw she did it.

Even though I have a new girl that's incredible, I still think about the other one a lot.

Peace,

*** MARBLES ***

33. "Dance with my Father-Luther"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I dont really want to
explain why but it really
makes my heart hurt. The
end of this song REALLY
gets to me.

Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how my mother cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying for much too much
But could you send back the only man she loved
I know you don't do it usually
But dear Lord she's dying
To dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream


;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

In response to Reply # 0


          

this song was on the radio 24-7 at this time...i wanted to be with this one person sooo bad that it truly hurt, but they just weren't ready and too proud... heart pitter pattered everytime the phone rang...couldn't eat... finally i just had to step back and let it go for sanity's sake... went about my business, pledged, and became a better person... and low and behold, my absence changed the person as well! We reconnected and things were completely different. To this day that song still holds those feelings and my stomach drops when ever I hear it...usually can't finish listening to it.


Oh and, you watched *HER* "probate", not "cross". The crossing is a private ritualistic ceremony. Just FYI

they can steal your heart AND your music TOO???

Actually ended up cracking the CD in half just because of that song...shit had me trapped. Childhood sweetheart - we promised to marry each other in 7th Grade and that we wouldn't start a relationship until we were ready for that...some young buck shit. But we kept that promise though. I loved her with all my heart and treated her as a love. She ruined every relationship I had in high school and college because them broads was threatened by her position. She was gone be my wife. Long story short, I end up having a baby with my on/off girlfriend at the time...that's when she says she's ready to start a relationship/get married and I end up leaving the chick to do that. Bitch ruined my life. Literally. Wasn't ready...just jealous. That shit lasted all of six months and I was two Cops away from catching a murder charge...blah blah blah. That song...

"He is OVERSERIOUS"

56. "where i wanna be: donnell jones"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

fall semester 1999.

we broke up but still talked semi-regularly as we tried to find our new places in each other's lives. he recommended donnell jones' album. had a funny tone to his voice when he said it, but i didn't think much about it then.

of the strength of his recommendation, i go to the used cd store up the block from my dorm and pick it up. i didn't trip off the fact that someone had already gotten rid of it b/c i didn't have high expectations of it myself.

the album overall was decent. something nice to put on when i had to clean up. but the title track...


"she doesn't fully understand me/ 'cause i'd rather leave than to cheat/ if she give me some time/ i can be the man she needs/ 'cause there's a lot of lust inside of me/ and we've been together since our teenage years/ i really don't mean to hurt her but i need some time/ to be alone..."

the whole song pretty much relayed what he was having trouble telling me b/c he didn't know how to word it or want to hurt my feelings.

and the video parallalled exactly what we were going through. he was flourishing in the music business, going on tour, etc., being surrounded by beautiful women, and i was curling up against my pillow, crying myself to sleep. alone.

"she's crying her heart to me/ 'how could you let this be?'/ i just need time to see/ where i wanna be/ where i wanna be..."

"girl, the love that we shared was real/ but in time, your heart will heal/ i'm not saying i'm gone, but i/ have to find what life is like/ without you..."

i moved back to new orleans and went to house of blues one night. he was deejaying. someone pulled me on the floor in the middle of his slow jam set. as soon as i stepped onto the floor, he played that song, then followed it up w/ 30 minutes of prince slow jams. we looked into each other eyes the whole time i danced with that other dude. i left the floor and went to the bathroom stall to cry.

For the longest time me and him were trying to get together, but never really seemed to be able to make time for each other or to give 100% to the relationship. One day he told me about the song and how it made him think of me and we had the usually talk about how nice it would be to be together. That was a Sunday. The next Thursday he was shot and died.

Ah man this was the soundtrack of MY life the first and only time I had my heart split. Ol' girl I dated in college was s'posed to be Mrs. Breeze but she changed the plan on me. For months, Mary J. was the only one who understood that All I Really Wanted Was To Be Happy.

Since then, I could never listen to that disc. Takes me back to a bad place and time.

by Digable Planets

apparently whenever she
hears anything by them,
no matter if she was
passing by and it's
playing from a car,
or somebody's house, or
whatever...somebody
she knows dies or
gets killed the next
day.

apparently it's happened
often enough for her
to take notice

weird huh?!?

before i found out about
this, i went to pick
her up once, and of course
i'm knockin' that
goodgood 'blowout comb'...

she damn near choked me
to death and had a
heart attack simultaneously...

she ran back out the
car screamin' "turn that
shit off...!...turn it
off...!" later on she
commenced to tell me
all of this. she was SHOOK
the rest of the day, yo.

again, weird huh?

In response to Reply # 89


  

          

yo, check it. when I first
met my ex in college at the
computer lab (haa!), i useta
come up in there all the time
playing the ‘Love Jones’ soundtrack
while I did work…like I played
the SHIT out that album.
and like, before we actually
hooked up, (because she WORKED in the lab)
she’d always come over
by me…where I was sitting at
and ask me whether i needed
help. i’d say no thanks,
(then i BEAT myself up
for not saying more shit to her,
like sparking a convo and running with it).
but the funny thing is that
i NOTICED was that
she’d only…or SEEM to only
come and ask if i needed help
when track #3 (Sweetest Thing)
was playing…shit kinda tripped
me out. so i finally grew some
balls and made some corny
remark about the movie…like,
obvious shit about how it was
filmed here and alla that. we
eventually linked up wit each
other and that was like out
theme song’n shit. till TODAY,
whenever I hear ‘Sweetest Thing’,
i shed a single tear, yo….

haaaaa..

faith evans' first album: faith.

no other love-- every time i hear this song, i remember how i had to stop giving him head b/c i was unintentionally bobbing my head to the beat. we fell out laughing.

come over-- he'd call me and play that when... well, when he wanted me to come over.

don't be afraid-- he played that when he was trying to get me to admit how i felt about him.


roots: silent treatment-- when i got mad at him over something that i can't even remember now. he put the needle on the record, and pulled me up and we danced until everything was all better. now when i listen to that song, i think of dancing in the middle of the studio, and how he held me so softly.

alright, there is no EMOTION it doesn't involve a GUY it has to do with my stomach...

when D' released that as a single, i was layed up in a hotle room in Anapolis with the worst stomach virus ever. the radio was on and it seemed like on cue whenever Devil's Pie came on i hurled... once I got Voodoo i didn't listen to Devil's Pie for months, and to be honset, despite how good that song is, i still feel a little quesey everytime i hear it.

.there you go.

Just me and you by the Tony(i)(e)'s...

I get choked up everytime. Dude just broke my heart. I mean, there's more to the story, but he broke it all up. We used to listen to this song all the time, cuz sometimes that's how we felt. Beating the odds and shit, not worrying about the folks who were the naysayers... I shoulda listened to the naysayers though.

fuck this song.

I love ghost posts.

There were a few weeks when I couldn't listen to "Room For Squares"...it's not that person's fault. It just reminded me of them *too* much.

This seems like a moment for "Split Screen Sadness", Don. But no...John *can't* be tainted. I won't let it happen.

As for Little Brother, man fuck that. I'm playing the hell outta Little Brother...had LL cracking up cause she couldn't believe the music was coming from my room.

The only songs/albums that are tainted are the ones that affected my heart. I know you know what I mean.

Jasmine

138. "Alone - Jodeci"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

She was 29....had 2 children...had a crib...had her tubes tied...and a beautiful demeanor.

I was 18...just got my 1st apartment...wild and running free.

We met on the chat line (See my "Social Anxiety" post from yesterday)...built and decided that we dug one another.

Met her up at BW3's at Greenbriar Mall. She was a big girl...but she was kinda fly and she had a style to her.

Still had morals back then...so I played the perfect gentleman. Knew I could hit that night...but told her that I didn't want to take it too fast...gave her a kiss on the forehead...went home alone. She said she'd never forget that.

Next time we connected...I forgot all that gentleman shit. I took it right there...on the living room floor. Fuck a bed. She came like twice before we even started having sex. The head game was ridiculous back then, I guess.

Started seeing her...realized that we made sense. Like...PERFECT sense. She was driven...motivated...and she had my back.

One night...while the kids were asleep...she threw in "Diary of A Mad Band". Tracks 1-6. On repeat.

Right around when "Alone" came on....I settled into a rhythm. I was trying to put the fear of GOD in her. Just went back and forth between sex and oral every 8 bars or so. Perfect timing. She asked me if I was trying to drive her crazy. I think I was. Can't listen to that song without thinking of her laying there on that couch....shivering...telling me she loved me.

We broke up less than a month later. My choice. She had her life set...she'd lived it. Mine was just beginning...and I wanted to run wild and free. I know it broke her heart. But she understood. She was always like that.

She must have made somebody a good wife. She must have left an impression on me somehow. 'Cause I ain't never forgot her...

Laying there shivering on the couch....while "Alone" was playing in the background...on repeat.

145. "Floetry's whole CD."
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I couldnt listen to
it for the longest.
I still cant listen
to it somedays. It
makes me think of
this really cakey
time I was spendin
with this guy. We
were listenin to the
CD when we went to
Walmart one day and
while we were studyin
together a couple times.
I had originally put
him on to floetry
and one day he told
me that everytime he
listens to that CD he
always thinks of me.
Listening to that CD
makes me sad because
I havent even talked
to him almost a year.

147. "Dru Hilll- The Love We Had....."
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

the last 2 verses especially:

(Jazz)
And baby girl...
I was tired
So I layed down to dream, for a little while
But lately I've been so, so uninspired
Without the comfort of your smile

(Sisqo)
But I'm not complaining
Cuz that's how it goes
There's always some heartache...
In this world I suppose
But you can't imagine
...cuz nobody knows

I had just broken up with my g/f at the time, and the kind of breakup that we had...I'll just say it could've been cleaner. all I could think about was how good everything was b4 it went down hill. we were both 2 blame 4 the situation falling apart. I really felt bad 4 a while becuz, even though I'm not 1 2 beg 4 a 2nd chance...I honestly felt asthough things could've worked-out if she'd been willing 2 listen me (instead of outside forces). 2day she's with some jerk-loser that acts like he's afraid 2 walk next 2 her when they're out in public. but you know, I wouldn't trade what I have now 4 anything in the world. cuz I have piece of mind.

159. "Touched A Dream - R. Kelly"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I was in the car when I first heard this song and I found it difficult to concentrate on steering. I thought to myself, "Damn, I wanna be able to FEEL what he's talking about. I wanna touch a dream too dammit!"

Then I met *him*. And he took my body to places it'd never been and I actually "saw skies open up and rain down heaven". And everytime we made love, the lyrics played in my head over and over like a broken record.

However, I want a relationship and he's not ready so we're just friends now. *sigh* I can't listen to that song without picturing him inside of me.

162. "Midnight Train To Georgia by Gladys Knight"
In response to Reply # 0
Thu Jan-15-04 08:35 AM

  

          

Reason: in 5th grade, we had an "oldies review" at our school, and I was chosen to be Ms. Knight.

Now, I asked for the sheet music so I could get the lyrics, but the idiotic director told me I didn't need sheet music because "I haven't taught you how to read sheet music yet, and we don't have time"

I just wanted the fucking lyrics written down.

So, I had to listen to the song over and over for one word of lyrics that wasn't very discernable. One fucking word!

"Said he's going back to find, a blip-blip place in time..."

The hell did she just say?

Now mind you, there were no CDs then, so I had to continually rewind the tape. And after I got tired of that, I just started it over from the beginning so I could master the other lyrics.

After over a hundred listenings, I found out that the blip-blip was "a simpler place in time".

The show went well for me, I took second place, but I can never ever listen to that song again.

Ever.

Damn Gladys and her non enunciating ass.


check yourself
brace yourself
protect yourself
face yourself

...don't be worried about the fuck I be doing...

at the end of the day, though...

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I moved out of the apartment that my boyfriend and I shared and when I came back to get my last bit of stuff... it was playing on the Comcast Smooth R&B channel...
And we hit one of those "uncomfortable silences" on the part where he said:
"No notice, no letter, you just packed your shit and left."

Haven't been able to handle that song since...

182. "fool of me: meshell ndegeocello"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

really the whole bitter album, but especially fool of me, bitter, and wasted time.

i'm ashamed to admit that the first time i heard "fool of me" was in the "i'll play you for your heart" scene in love and basketball.

i went to see that movie by myself. he refused to come with me. our friends were hyping the movie up; one even went so far as to say it would bring us back together. and that's probably why he wouldn't go with me.

the second half of this so-so movie was so familiar. he had moved on, was engaged, living his life, and i was walking around with my head down, letting good men pass me by b/c they weren't him.

i wanted to make a desperate plea (c) silly e. badu, but my pride wouldn't let me.

so i'm watching this ridiculous scene, and this song comes on. and i started to cry right there in the movie theatre. silent tears dropping slowly, like they were waiting for meshell to breathe in before they dropped.

"you made a fool of me
tell me why
you say that you don't care but we made love
tell me why
you made a fool of me
you made a fool of me

i want to kiss you
does she want you with the pain that i do?
i smell you in my dreams
but now when we're face to face
you won't look me in the eye
no time no friendship no love..."

it fit perfectly with where we were at that time. his phone calls had become more sporadic, always at 3am when he needed to get off or wanted to come over. and yet when we were face to face, his eyes would flit around the room, landing on everything and nothing, unable to meet mine, refusing to acknowledge the pain and confusion that had made a haven within me.

In response to Reply # 0
Thu Jan-15-04 09:13 AM

  

          

I had been really loving this
dude for like 2 years. We were
had a common group of friends
but I had never told him how I
felt because I didnt want to
jeopardize our friendship and
plus he had a girlfriend that
I knew/kinda friends with. And
plus we live far from each other.
Well one day one of my friends
calls me and tells me that she
has been spending a lot of time
with J and he has been telling
her that he wants to be with
her. My friend was well aware of
my feelings for him and she even
encouraged them. That evening I
was in the car and I put in the
Vivian Green I had just bought
and when What is Love came on
the tears just started falling.
That song always makes me think
back to that awful day.

191. "Green Eyes"
In response to Reply # 0


          


funny shit happens when you try to be an adult. Just cause you can drink and pay rent don't mean you're a man. I had a good one. Probably one of the best I ever met. She loved me from the top of my nappy head to the middle of my crusty toes.
But I couldn't figure out how to be a man to her. Sure I brought home the bacon, we had our own lil crib. Yeah we were playing house and to the naked eye it looked like our shit was together.
But I was a fucking loser. And I treated her the way I felt about myself. Awful. Lame excuses, broads numbers in plain sight. Coming in 4 hours late, too much playstation too much weed too little communication.

I was killing her softly but so caught up in my shit I couldn't see it. She knew I was fucking around. hell yeah she knew. I left clues like I was dying to get caught. But she kept me alive at my lowest point and I couldn't leave my security blanket.

so I set out to do me. While destroying her.

FF to Mama's Gun.
I'm all about that Time's a Wastin'
I need to get my mind right.
she never seems to listen to the CD in the house, but it stays in her discman.
I can never find it unless I look through her shit. 5-6 months, she'd just have it, all the time.

Our last outing as a "couple." Before the knife fights and clothes throwing and cop calling.

We went to go see E.Badu. And she ran through her set. and it seemed like the show was over.
Suddenly my meek and mild chick yells out...

"GREEN EYES!!!"

and on cue, E.Badu says, we're gonna go into a song I call, Green Eyes.
You shoulda seen the look on my girls face. Like it was fucking Christmas. SHe was clapping.laughing.smiling.
Mind you the shit was a skipper for me when I listened to the CD now I had to sit there and listen to it.
Live.

and then I understood.
and it hurt.
BAD. And I knew why she always had it. and why she needed to hear it.
and why I needed to hear it.
I done done some foul shit. but she's the only one I carry around with me. can't shake it cause I realized how dumb wrong I was. and how hurt she was.
I saw her on a subway platform lart year and ducked out of sight.
and that song never gets burn. never.

199. "Usher "You got it bad" and The Roots "Silent Treatment""
In response to Reply # 191


  

          

Both remind me of the same girl. "Silent Treatment" reminds me of when we were together. I love the song but just too many memories. "You got it bad" reminds me of when I was trying to get over her, took me a long time but think I finally over her.

193. "Green Eyes--E. Badu"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

story: met a dude, knew dude for years, trusted dude.. starting dating dude... said, he'd never hurt me, he'd always love me, wanted to marry me (or at least that's the bullshit he fed me), ended up... leaving me for whatever reason (there were explanations, but they had no face value to me, seemed like excuses), and... i gave my all to him, my heart... my all. I love Green Eyes and shit, but I can't listen to it without singing really loud followed by a needed cry...

200. "i cant listen to that song without tears..."
In response to Reply # 193


  

          

It brings back a bad
time.
I was lovin this dude
but of course like every guy
i try to love,he had a girl
already. And she was my
friend we had classes together
and for a minute we danced
together. She knew how I felt
about him and she would take
every chance she got to rub
it in that she had im and i
didnt.I could hardly talk to
him anymore without her being
around or him bringing her
into the conversation. I was
so jealous and envious of her,
it was ridiculous. I wanted to
be in her place soooooo bad.
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Also, my dear cousin know that stress is only a state of mind. It is what we experience when we separate ourselves from God. There is no such thing as stress in God

194. "Love Rain- Jill Scott"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Picture it-
Summer 2001
Met this guy. He was brilliant, funny, and charming. He had me so wrapped up in him. 6 months of courting, fun, trips, and late night rendezous and he just drops the fact that it was "just a thing" to him.

My poor little heart was so hurt that it took me a long time to get over it. I played this song over and over again. Now I listen to it and feel all the pain that my poor young heart felt then.

195. "RE: Renee'- The Lost Boyz & Walk On By- Isaac Hayes"
In response to Reply # 0


          

To make a long story short:

I met her during the Blizzard of '96. Me & my friends got outta school early & went to his house. His sister & her girlfriend from school(Renee') were already at the house.

She was diggin' me & vice versa. They had the radio playing & by coincedence Lost Boyz' "Renee" was playin in the bkgd. I asked her name & It was........Yup! I fell in love the 1st time.

We talked found out we had a lotta shit in common. We hung out & ey'thing. And she was the very 1st woman I ever made love to.

Why we broke up? Your guess is as good as mine! We were only together for about 3 months, but it felt like 3 years. Anyhoo,we were talking on the phone & we had like a semi-argument & what not. Something she said that reminded my of what my Ex-girl used to say. And when I said those words she snapped! "Walk On By" incidentally was playing in the background. She immediatley broke up with me, without a rhyme or reason, she juss said it was over.....just like that! For no reason at all ! She was the only girl I've ever loved.

As she broke up with me, I felt as if i was kicked in the stomache & Isaac made the pain worse by singing.

So when those two songs come on I walk out the room or turn off Dead Presidents!

Always "Wookin Pa Nub"!

Did I say 'long story short'?

196. "Secret Lovers, Secret Garden, Goodbye Love, Sunshine"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

these all belong to my ex-girl from high school.

'secret garden': we used to sing this to each other on the phone.

'goodbye love': when i moved across town away from her she had a going-away party for me. the party's last song was 'goodbye love' - we danced to it and she sang the whole thing in my ear. i had tears in my eyes.

'secret lovers': turns out she was cheating on me w/my best friend the whole time and this was THEIR song.

'sunshine' by babyface: after i'd broken up w/her due to the cheating and the moving across town i showed up at her bday party. this joint came on and we slow danced. i danced her into a closet and got her out of her shirt before my best friend found us. what could he say? nothing.


fuck you.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

one of my best female friends to date
this is our song

i met her at a house party in the 8th grade
she came with this girl i was tryin to holler at and later stalked (a whole nother story)

the girl i was trying to get with was not on me but homegirl was

we danced, she told me she has been seeing me for a while and was really feeling me. we kissed and exchanged numbers. i dissed her for the next 3 yrs of high school. i wasnt really feelin her for soem reason. everything was there too. she had a big asssed head and was darkskinned, really dark. just my type
i even fronted on eatin her cooch why i have no idea.

so senior prom rolls around and i ask if she wants to go.

she says "donald i been chasin you for four years and now you ask me to prom? no, but ill see you there, have a nice time"

i have been down with her ever since

i came back from nc and tried to get on again. she made me dinner and i came outta my face at her on some "lets try it out" she laughed and said 'lets go to the club'

i hollered at anything w/in a 2 foot radius to show herthat i can have any woman i want. she knew.

we still talk like once every 3 days for roughly an hour at a time

our story is far from over

201. ""Ex-Factor" - Lauryn Hill"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

The CD came out about a week or so after I had broken up with my girl. We had a real rocky relationship and I had got hurt BAD. I was looking forward to hearing the CD so much, hoping it would be great and help me forget about what I was going thru. I was feeling good after hearing "Lost Ones"... then "Ex-Factor" came on. I had never had a song hit me on such a personal level before, it was like she knew me and wrote that song about what I was going through. It took years before I could listen to that CD w/o skipping that song.

Never Dreamed You'd Leave In Summer

The title alone and when he sings "Why didn't you stay...." just kills me. I'ont even know what the song is about, I think his lost love or something but it reminds me of my boys I lost, two very good friends that I went to college with died during the summer, one 7/18/93 to a car accident the other 6/6/95 was shot in his mother's driveway a month after graduation.... and when I hear this song all I think of is them

205. "One Fine Day- Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men"
In response to Reply # 0
Thu Jan-15-04 11:22 AM

  

          

it was puppy love.
we was both 15 and shit
growning up as friends
with the most agonizing sexual tension that we just shook off until a few years later

His mom spent her last weeks in the hospital in our first year of college. I spent a few nights with him.
Instead of the sex we planned on for years, we stayed up watching movies, playing cards, talking, and me drying his tears. He had one daughter, and was scared about the twins that were on the way. He shared so much of himself with me those few nights. I told him I had his back regardless, and I meant it. He rejoiced when his mom got better, and went back to school.

He was killed two weeks later. Someone busted into his apartment looking for his cousin, and shot him 6 times in the face. I was so scared to look at his face in the coffin, confused why they had an open casket anyway...but when I looked down...

I saw memories of him laughing instead of covered-up bullet wounds.

When the song came out, and I really listened to those lyrics, I had a breakdown. Because I loved him.

His daughter's mom kept the twins, and one of them is a little boy that looks so much like him I almost passed out when I saw him at a picnic. Running around laughing loud, just like his daddy did a long time ago.

"Sorry, I didn't tell you...all that I wanted to say..."

"But I know you're smiling down on me from heaven...one fine day..."

I couldn't have said it better.

Damnit, this post needs to be archived quickly.

J?


check yourself
brace yourself
protect yourself
face yourself

...don't be worried about the fuck I be doing...

at the end of the day, though...

209. "March, 2003...."
In response to Reply # 0


          

I have a hard time listening to Floetry "Ms. Stress" and "If I Was A Bird".

**This story might read a little off at parts, but please excuse this because I'm in a rush and I wanted to tell my story before I left work**

March, 2003 was what I thought the best time of the year. I just celebrated my 22nd birthday and I was feeling pretty good. I met my ex-boyfriend around that time. He was a friend of a friend and we eventually hooked up. I knew that he had 3 children and the mother of the children was off/on with him so I took a chance since he said he was done with her bullshit. I wish I would've said "That's okay!". To skip to the end of the relationship, I was having a hard time with him due her calling him @ 12 a.m. "just because" and her coming to Chicago almost everyday (Their children lived with him during last summer) saying that she was missing the kids. But I went on vacation and when I came back he gives me a call and was like "She's pregnant and we gotta stop our relationship....etc.." I gave in because there was nothing I could do. We still messed around for about 2 months after the breakup and then he left Chicago to live with her in Wisconsin.

Before he left we spent a day together and I had the Floetry CD with me and I couldn't explain to him how I felt about the entire situation. I played "Ms. Stress" and "If I Was a Bird" and the look on his face after he heard the songs was as if he wish he would've known this in the beginning and he could go back and redo what was done. I still talk to him to this day but when we both talk I can hear "If I Was A Bird" playing in the background when we speak and I have this feeling to say I'm done..but I keep holding on to something that I know won't happen again.

*Come to find out that the baby wasn't his and she had an abortion...

210. "I Love You - Faith Evans"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

first off...i feel deep. always have, probably always will, which is why i keep feeling aside until i have too.

Valentine's Day - 2002.

rewind. it's this incredible girl in my Japanese class. super bad, smart funny, all that. met her in Japanese 1 on the first day of class, she happens to come and sit by me. we talk a bit, and the girl's smile was just gorgeous. i'm looking forward to the semester with her, until they split the class up into 2 sections. she went in one, and i was in the other. saw her in passing maybe twice that entire semester.

fast-forward to next semester. Japanese 2. first day of class, she's there. i so, so, smoothly walk over and sit next to her and act like nothing ever happened. got her number that day. we talk, still have class together, it seems like i'm feeling her and she's feeling me. we talk about all sorts of stuff...families, religon, how fine i think she is, everything. she expresses her love for Disney movies, and Disney on ice and all that, and it just happens that for Valentines Day Disney on Ice is in town. i jump on it get two tickets from my mans and 'em, and let her know 3 days before hand i had a surprise for her. the night before, i'm trying to call her all night long, and finally get through at like 2 am. i'm pissed the way things are going down, but let her know what i had in store. she tells me, that there was something i didn't ask her...then proceeds to tell me she had a boyfriend, from high school, here at Howard with her. i just felt that sick feeling in my stomach.

that night i listened to that song 500 times, i couldn't sleep, and called outta work the next day. i still feel sick about the whole thing. we still stayed "cool", and i let her string me along for the next year. now i can't stand her, but still look for her. i dunno why.

at last--etta james

sunday kind of love--etta james

for all we know--donny hathaway

love rain--jill scott...that shit was PAINFUL

a song for you--donny hathaway

miles davis--love songs

for one rainy evening in particular...

and purple rain...actually...ALL prince...but purple rain in particular...

that was the most emotionally draining and co-dependant/abusive relationship i've ever been in...i learned alot about what i can and cannot tolerate in a relationship...he was crazy, emotionally unavailable, and still emotionally involved with his ex...oh...AND he was fuckin other women...and i was pretty much clinically depressed...but we had chemistry that was just unreal...it was a HORRIBLE combination

it took me about 3 years to heal...cause i decided that if i wanted a good and healthy relationship...i had to deal with my own issues so that i didn't bring no bullshit to somebody else...

i healed

then i met him...and we fell in love...by accident...and it was the most honest and most beautiful thing that i'd ever experienced...he's my first real love...and i thought he would be my last love...what we had made every man in my past insignificant...and we lived as far apart as any two people could possibly live...one day...after i'd had a particularly rough emotional discussion with my father in which pops said some hella nasty ish to me...he says to me that he cannot be with me anymore because he can't do the distance...it felt like the cruelest fuckin joke that the universe could possibly play on me...i loved me too much to curl up and die...but it felt like my soul was in pieces...and i couldn't even conceptualize what it was to not be with him...it just didn't make sense...

i couldn't listen to our songs for a looooooooooooong time

inside my love...minnie ripperton

love sponge...buju banton

i wanna get next to you...rose royce

superwoman...stevie wonder

When the summer came you were not around
Now the summer's gone and love cannot be found
Where were you when I needed you-last winter, my love?

When the winter came you went further south
Parting from love's nest, leaving me in doubt
Where are you when I need you, like right now?

Our love is at an end
But you say now you have changed
But tomorrow will reflect love's past

When the winter came you were not around
Through the bitter winds love could not be found
Where were you when I needed you, last winter, my love?

Oh I need you baby, I need you baby

Our love is at an end
But you say now you have changed,
But tomorrow will reflect love's past oh

Spring will fill the air and you will come around,
Well is it summer love that will let me down,
Where were you when I needed you, last winter, my love?

La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la la
Where are you when I need you, like right now?


that shit right there!!! had a sista hemmed up

but the REAL kicker

was 700mi situation by res

i thought i was through with the weepin part of my process
i was sittin on my bed
writin somethin in my journal
that had nothin whatsoever to do with him

and 700mi situation came on randomly on my computer

and i went completely to pieces
i cried so hard that i surprised my own damned self
like WTF??!??
it came outta no where
but i guess i wasn't done cryin

11-25 of last year woulda been our anniversary

fortunately...i love music FAR too much to remove it from my life
on account of somebody else

so i took alla my shit back...
AND

i am able to smile when i hear the songs
and they bring up memories
cause i healed
and i'm okay
and it's all good

for real

i got love for both of these brothas...and i wish nothin but good things for both of 'em...

221. "Prince: She's Always In My Hair..."
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Dedicated that to Twin. Man I loved her. *shrugs* oh well. But yeah everything he said, she was it. I mean I still listen to it (cuz it's Prince), but it's like I see her.

Whenever I feel like givin' up
Whenever my sunshine turns 2 rain
Whenever my hopes and dreams
Are aimed in the wrong direction
She's always there
Tellin' me how much she cares
She's always in my hair

She's always in my hair
My hair

Whenever I feel like not 2 great at all
Whenever I'm all alone
And even if I hit the wrong notes
She's always in my boat
She's always there
Tellin' me how much she cares
She's always in my hair

She's always in my hair
My hair

Maybe I'll marry her (Maybe I'll marry her)
Maybe I won't (Maybe I won't)
Maybe I will not (Maybe I will not)
Lemme tell ya (Even if I was a gigolo)
If I was a gigolo all my life (All my life)
She'd still be there (She'd still be there)
Tellin' me just how much she really cares (She cares)
She's always in my hair

She's always in my hair
My hair

Listen
Whenever I feel like givin' up
Whenever my sunshine turns 2 rain
Whenever my hopes and dreams
Are aimed in the wrong direction
She's always there
Tellin' me just how much she cares (Tellin' me how much she cares)
Tellin' me...she's always in my hair (Always in my hair)

She's always in my hair
My hair

She's always in my hair

ahh...a couple...


'143'-Musiq

'the sweetest thing' -lauryn hill

'something' -musiq remake

'the light' -common

'complexity'- the roots

'show me' -jill scott

'i love you' -faith


a couple others...but ONE relationship ending, messed up ALL those songs for me...i can't listen to any of them w/o gettin into a zone of quiet sadness and blank staring, tryin not to tear up. that bastid broke my heart and threw the shards into my eyes.

but...now...i'm a stronger, less bitter version of my former self. lol...and now, i'm in a good relationship where i'm appreciated and supported, due to what i learned from the things i went through. funny how time changes things.

223. "Eart, Wind, & Fire"

The Ed Debevics' Chick

We met in 1994. She was at Lindblom. I was at HPCA. We met on the corner of 63rd and Stony Island. I was waitng for the #1 to go north to the Low End. Where as she was transferring busses from the 63rd St bus to the #6. I finally had the gumtpion to talk to her. It was cool. Nothing happened then.

Fast forward to the summer. We end up working for the paper handled by Youth Communications in Chicago. We talk some more. I'm feeling her but she ain't really feeling me. Instead, come to find out she was feeling this cat from Mt. Carmel. Half Black/Mexican dude that was also a cartoonist for the paper. I'm like, what the fuck ever and moved on reluctantly. Big Bruh came through with the advice of otha fish. Never really fully grasped it like I should have but at the time I was truly young and dumb.

Senior year of college hits. I'm headed to Mizzou, she's going to WashU in St Louis. I still emphasize that we maintain contact. We do on a casula basis. Every so often would shoot her an email. This is where i truly get my 50/50 rule in relationships because with her i was always doing the footwork. Summer after Sophomore year, we both working at CPS. I'm in the intern program, while she's in the mail room. We see each other in the hallways. Exchange pleasentries and start going to Lunch at Lula's across Pershing Rd. We build and start hanging out on weekends and after work.

She's about to go to Kenya for a 3 week Summer Abroad Program. I'm heavy hearted with feelings and pressure myself into telling her I got a jonze. So one night, the day before she leaves, I get my Mom's ride to take her out. We go to Bennigan's by River Oaks. Fly downtown. Drive through Lincoln Park. Cut up to Rodgers Park. We see the whole city. I'm on the don't let the night end steez. All the while I'm playing this Earth, Wind, & Fire CD of their love songs.

Track 4 "Love's Holiday"

This comes on right around the corner from Lincoln Park Zoo. I start singing to her. The song had all my intentions and desires in the words. Damn You!!! Maurice White!!!!!! I'm looking in her eyes and singing along. She is totally clueless as to how i feel. Maybe it's my half-serious manner. No effect initially. She goes away to Kenya. I'm still in The Chi. She comes back after 3 weeks with gifts for me. had her Mom and young cousin in the car waiting for her as she rush delivered these gifts to me. Some cool shit that I still got. But there she said what she didn't realize in the car that night before she left.

That i had liked her. She thought about it all while she was there in Kenya. her friends, whom she told the night to, agreed that I was feeling her and that she didn't pick up on it. Oblivious. When she thought about it. She was kicking herself because I was what she wanted in a different package. She confessed right there in the street with her fam waiting in the ride. On some Jerry Maguire shit. Right in the middle of Wild Giles Avenue.

Ahead, we went through some rocky shit, She wanted to become a lawyer and couldn't see herself with a man that makes less than her. I was heated that she thought in such terms. We broke off.

Me and some OKPs go see "Kings of Comedy". That one scene where Steve Harvey is playing the dusties. He plays "the song". I'm tormented forever. I'm laughing hard, but my mind is telling me to go to Pheonix, IL to say hello. I did. We struck it back up. We had the incident at Ed's. We go back to seperate beings. To this day, I still cannot hear that song and not think of her.

227. "stealing my ideas"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

but that's ok, don. great minds, right?

so let's see... there is no song that i CAN'T hear. but there are definately songs that i can't hear w/out being reminded of a particular person and their effect on me.

i do love you (remix)/bbd - he made me a mix tape. this song opened and closed the tape. first time i was in "love." i wasn't really, but it felt like it to a 16 y/o.

you're all i need/meth & mary - this was a perfect song for us. his hardness coupled w/ my softness. the first song he'd heard that he felt was okay to say - "this is us. this is how i feel."

untitled/d'ang - my mr. big. architecture and moonlight. on repeat.

soul sista/bilal - he took my hand & we danced to this in my living room. that's the moment, exactly, that i began to fall. fell hard, too.

i can hear this song but it
makes me think of one of my
friends that was once very
close to me. We would sing
this at karoake ALL the time.
Man that was our song!!!
We are still friends but we
just arent as close as we once
were. Partly because of distance.
I wish we were as close as we
once were.
