      Me too..glad that as a 1990 born person I had 90's-early 2000's as my childhood and rest of the 2000's as my teenage years..in the prcess I loved alternative rock and Indie rock in the mainstream as a teenager. The teens these days are unlucky not to see these genres in the mainstream.

    Flicks it round your face like flames around the sun

    As Rita Tushingham in 1961
    Well, Lindsey Wells
    How I wish that I could feel so good
    I wish that I could be as good as you
    Well, Lindsey Wells
    How I wish that I could feel the good
    Beyond the poison in us like you do
    LP records in your little hands
    Put them on your little dansette for a dance
    All those men sing you'll never walk alone
    But you'll never let them break your little heart.
    Well, Lindsey Wells
    How I wish that I could feel so good

    If you need someone to tell

    Always fails

    And your secret
    Will remain
    Yes the secret
    The secret
    Will remain
    Well, Lindsey Wells

Espero que ella aún escuche FF y cuando ella escuche esta canción, me recuerde como yo lo hago. Ojalá algún día vea este comentario y piense en la posibilidad de quien soy.

    Now she isn't with me, she just left and I can't communicate with her. I don't lose faith, I hope she still listens to FF and when she hears this song, she reminds me like I do it. Hopefully one day I will see this comment and think about the possibility of who I am.

    Has anyone read the book "An Abundance of Katherines" by John Green? Because they discuss the archduke Franz Ferdinand a LOT and they go to see his supposed grave and the tour guide girl is named "Lindsey L. Wells" and I just about died with the irony. Either John Green is literally the best witty man alive or its a coincdence, I thought it was FANTASTIC.

  • @SummerLove047
