"We Love To Love: Music"

 
That's certainly something.
(It sure enough means a lot to me)
 
I can listen to a great single a hundred times, loving it for the melody, the words, the voice,
the orchestra arrangement, the breathtaking intro, the heartbreaking climax – in short, because
it's an amazing three-minutes-of-music. But, with their musical splendour, the all-time favourites, the stuff
these 100 are made, have yet more to give. They let me go back in time…
 
we used to dance whenever this was played… we heard this at the concert and you turned to me
and smiled… I remember listening to this for the first time, it's on the golden tape… your birthday (2000)…
this always reminds me of those evenings in Berlin… it feels like this was written about you and me.
 
This is the secret of THE PERFECT POP SONG.
This is indeed THE SOUNDTRACK OF OUR LIVES.
 
I don't have to name the songs – we know what they are – I remember those moments – it was so
much more than just great music and still somehow – it's all there.
 
In retrospect, I think I might safely say; we've come a long way. Quantum leaps, even. Although
sometimes we were stumbling, this is what lasts. Now we REPLAY, but I hope we'll keep on
going FAST FORWARD.
