Time Flies

I remember I used to listen to '1999' and think how far off it is, and how things would be in the future. Crazy to think the song was written in the mid-1980s (85?), seemed so far away, but is now seven years past 1999.

Yes, this is amazing, isn't it? I hear "Wild, Wild West" by Escape Club (no, not the Will Smith version) every once in a while - that song has this line in it:

"Headin' for the nineties
Livin' in the Wild Wild West...."

that song came out in 1988 - I vividly remember listening to that in senior year of HS. Now it just makes me feel old...very old...

Vice versa, kids are now singing songs about 20 years ago. There's that song, "1985", by Bowling for Soup (?).... what the hell woudl they know about 1985? Geesh.
