Perspektiv Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 There are typically songs, and even at times entire albums in your playlist that just have never managed to get old. Either they just resonate with you in a certain way, or you just really like that particular sound. What song(s) have stood the test of time for you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one that I have, which is on my phone too: Non, rien de rien No, absolutely nothing Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait Not the good things that have happened Ni le mal, tout ça m'est bien égal Nor the bad, it's all the same to me Non, rien de rien No, absolutely nothing Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing C'est payé, balayé, oublié It's paid, swept away, forgotten Je m'en fou de passé I don't care about the past! Avec mes souvenirs I set fire J'ai allumé le feu To my memories Mes chagrins, mes plaisirs My troubles, my pleasures Je n'ai plus besoin d'eux I don't need them anymore Balayé les amours I've swept away past loves Avec leur trémolos With their trembling Balayé pour toujours Swept away forever Je repars à zéro I'm starting over Non, rien de rien No, absolutely nothing Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait Not the good things that have happened Ni le mal, tout ça m'est bien égale Nor the bad, it's all the same to me Non, rien de rien No, absolutely nothing Non, je ne regrette rien No, I regret nothing Car ma vie, car mes joies Because my life, because my joy Aujourd'hui... ça commence avec toi! Today... it begins with you! Edited February 28 by Contrarian edit design Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perspektiv Posted March 6 Author Report Share Posted March 6 Quite a few for me. Dredg - Zebraskin I mean, that song takes me way back. Never has gotten old to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perspektiv Posted March 6 Author Report Share Posted March 6 I also have always loved many others, from quite a few genres. Buju Banton - Action To Isis - Dulcinea and everything in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August1991 Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 IMHO, people mostly remember songs/melodies from their youth. Or books/novels they discovered when they were teenagers. But some music or stories stand the test of time. ==== Nowadays, no one remembers Arnold Bennett; but everyone remembers a melody of Mozart. Or one of the stories of Somerset Maugham.

August1991 Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 They (Keanu Reeves?) say a person dies twice: First, when the person dies. Second, when everyone stops thinking of the person. ===== Notoriety is one thing. The person's idea another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
