My wife and I celebrated our 22nd anniversary last week. We decided to go on vacation to Osaka, Nagoya and Nakatsugawa, which happened to coincide with a gem and mineral show I was doing there.
It happened to be a very memorable trip sightseeing and dinning. We also went to s secluded town in the mountains on the way home, but that's for another day.
There are endless songs I could post here about love and life, but these are three tunes I thought about when thinking of her and our time together.
I first found out about my wife through a picture of one of my DJ partners in Tokyo. I was immediately head over heals for her, just from that one picture. I had my friend introduce me and...... it's funny how time flies!
Tears For Fears - Head Over Heels https://youtu.be/CsHiG-43Fzg?si=jT7k4klVz2FIbWd7
This song was actually the first one that popped into my head when thinking about all of this. Perhaps it's because I am overseas, away from her for half the year.
Styx - Babe https://youtu.be/yaVyQS1T7TY?si=_zhEOLfyL0D4PU9f
This last tune has always stuck in my head because it's such a dude's way of saying I love you.
Huey Lewis & The News - Stuck With You https://youtu.be/J08ZwySCoJ8?si=_lMCelm2SEoX2YQ-&t=88
I'm not sure why all these songs were from the 80's, but I have a feeling that's when the best music was written, timeless, from the heart and full of love and hope, kinda like 22 years of marriage.
Thanks for listening!
Thanks to @boxcarblue for introducing me to #TTT and @ablaze for dreaming it up.
