Flashbacks of a Fool

This Video from the above awesome movie is very romantic in a non typical way. Watch the whole video: Builds up the anticipation till the emotion bursts at about 6:18... There is much to be said about the music (If There is Something (Live) - Roxy) but lets leave that for another post. This one is about this video. It takes me back to a wonderful time. A time when I had no responsibilities and infinite time - time all to myself. When all life was about was experiences - states of emotion produced by everlong sequence of events - like parallel streams - one outside, the one made of events - the other within, the one made of feelings. I remember observing (from an outside reference point) these two streams and somehow I guess they have gotten recorded somewhere in my subconscious.

Coz even today when I listen to this song, watch this movie (the outside stream), I feel the exact same set of feelings (the stream within) and its strage coz now they are set against a whole new set of outside events and also coz my receiving state is different.... Sry I guess I am getting too abstract: explaining it might mean too long a post.

Anyways, getting to the stream within - this movie/ this scene is about beautiful people and material lives... The music produces yearning (for what I dunno) - makes me feel one with the people in the scene. Makes me feel materialistic (and I like it) - Makes me feel beautiful and vain - again I like it. Takes me to another world - where I rule all - where I retain all my strengths and lose all my weaknesses. I am still super intelligent (still vain I guess), still romantic and creative and other worldly (bragging intentional :P), but I am also super good looking, charming, smooth and confident.

I can't explain the link between the scene and the way it makes me feel, coz I have forgotten the other elements of the outside stream that maybe produced this strange feeling - Strange.

Anyways, I guess the blog was to be about music n lyrics n not my blabberings. So - Great song, awesome movie - great performances and lyrics that take you back to your best memories.
