Born in 84, when this album released I was coming of age, developing my own musical taste, form of expression and personhood. This album shaped that. With my babysitting money I got the double cassette and wore it out. With my earbuds in, it was the first time I heard music as art and it became one of the soundtracks of my life. It will always be. I’ve celebrated with it, I cried with it, I’ve loved with it, I’ve lost with it. This album is a part of me til the end.
