Wonderwall

was one of those songs that I "heard" for the first time in freshman year of college. I was too dumb, too naive, to know that it had been a popular song for awhile. had no idea that it was a regular in the repertoire of popular cafe and other genre music. 

This was before 

Spotify

and such. it was possible for some small country kid like me to get into college without having ever heard of 

Oasis

or Wonderwall.

Because of this I actually was super affected by the song. I didn't allow any conceptions of popular music or generic memification ruin it for me. To me it was just the words I had in my head being played through the radio... the emotions i had driving alone after hanging out with a girl... playing through the radio. It was just a part of me... playing through the radio.
