What song makes you think of your childhood home?
As I lay me down by Sophie B. Hawkins. It will sound absolutely weird what memory is immediately conjured each and every time I hear this song, but here it is.
It is 1998 or even 1999. I am in the shower in my 2 story turn of the century farm house. I am lathering my hair up in Suave Juicy Green Apple and belting this absolute banger out. For whatever reason I only remembered the chorus so I would sing it over and over much to my step moms dismay.
There are other songs that could bring me straight back to that place, but the biggest one that comes to mind is As I Lay Me Down. I think tonight I will put it on and take a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
