Whenever I hear 'I'm a Believer' by the Monkees, I think of days at the Sandycroft Leave Centre(it was played in the games arcade there). 'Please Release Me' by Englebert Humperdinck reminds me of the time that I cracked my head open on a window near our home at Jalan Wijaya (it was on the radio at the time) and 'Green Green Grass of Home'reminds me of sitting on the doorstep of Jalan Wijaya while it played on the radio in the background. 'Fly Me to the Moon' was the song that every act used to sing on Singapore TV's talent show in the 1960s so that brings back memories of us all sat around the telly.<br />It's funny how a song can trigger so much.derek taithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06420179495782939026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108630126700411599.post-51446431791593344452010-05-20T23:39:55.654+08:002010-05-20T23:39:55.654+08:001993?
