Three cheers for five years
Disclaimer: this post is all about Mayday Parade
want to quote some lyrics, but idk whether to quote verse, chorus or bridge cos everything is so feeeeeels
i didn't know this song back in 2014, so when they came and played in singapore, i was more of a huge fan of jamie all over, kids in love and jersey. (miserable at best and stay are not really my favourites from mp, but it's really nice to sing along to, so i liked when they played those too)
but now i keep listening to this song over and over. it's so well-written. that emotional buildup towards the bridge, and then the pretty much bittersweet ending verse at the end.
for some reason this is also the mp song that reminds me most of the concert back in 2014.
i loooove concerts. there is always this feeling of affinity with your fellow concert-goers, even if you've never met them before it feels like you're at least acquainted somehow, because you both forked out 80 bucks to come and see the same band, so that prolly says something about how much you like them.
i can't remember exactly when i started listening to mayday parade. i think it was 2012. sometimes i can't believe it's gonna be my second time seeing them this year. i was 18 when i first saw them and i'm gonna be 21 when i see them again. how cool is that?
the other day i was doing some spring cleaning in my room, a couple of days after baybeats, and i found a postcard that i got during cashew chemists' set at baybeats 2012. a stack of them was being passed around the crowd for free.
i think i have the photo somewhere on my facebook
ta-da!
(took me forever to find cos i kept getting distracted by all the photos)
but really though. has it really been 4 years? wow
