Way back when, when I started my very first year of college back at good ol’ MBI in Chicago, I found immediate and wonderful friendship in someone that I had known throughout High School but had never yet considered an actual friend. Jocelyn. We had all of the same friends, we were around one another all of the time but it wasn’t until we landed on the same dorm floor that we found that we had much more in common than we thought. One of those things being this song. A simple bonus track on Pete Yorn’s Music for the Morning After album, but a song that we (to the chagrin of many of our friends) deemed multiple-repeat worthy, hours-worth-of-repeat worthy. Ridiculous and self-indulgent but we felt as if it had been written for us, our green eyes, and our new found friendship. Now this song is almost as nostalgic to me as this: Click Here. I know, I know. But something about the fall (and Coldplay) makes me undeniably nostalgic.
