90's and being narcissistic

had a great conversation with a friend recently, a conversation which i found rather enjoyable and weird. weird is the fact that i could still recall that moment when i first heard elton john's sacrifice in 1987/88. that was when kimisawa still the legendary supermarket whilst sate ria and white castle are the pulling factors in holiday plaza jb. then came starship's nothing's gonna stop us now. funnily, i think i had my fido dido short on then.

when my brother brought home bob marley's legend and RHCP's blood sugar sex magic in 1991, i was totally hooked. i remember carrying my Sony walkman around, the size of a brick, just to listen to under the bridge, give it away and bssm during recess over and over again. then me and eddy got into metallica and we got into it real bad. we painted our schoolbags and eventually traded a lot of replica posters for 50 cents each.

later in the early 90's, my mom would always bring me to either Lido, Nira or Rex for movies and one in particular was far & away, starred tom cruise alongside nicole kidman when both weren't even dating, i think. no, cineplex was still a foreign word. then in 1993, richard marx's right here waiting was the talk of the town. there was this indian friend who worshipped him and the subject for conversation is always obviously, richard. i also managed to stand in the first row when amy did his tour for magic, that alt-rock, grungy album. one of the best a malaysian artiste ever produced.

not really watching that stupid box but i didn't miss the mask cartoon series when it was shown on telly. and voltron too..hehe..too many to mention. and "dinasours alive", remember that one in pelangi? i shall be back later to reminisce the best decade especially when it comes to discovering nirvana and the alternative scene + jamming session at KOMTAR. till then.
