| Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth – They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I agree that the song is a memorial song, yet I have to think that this song is more than just a song of to remember a single person. I feel this song is a testament to the daily struggle in the life of one man. I feel that this individual's struggle can be applied to a larger audience. I feel the lines that lead the song out are very important: "Just Listen Listen Listen, Just Listen." I think that this song is has grown into a song for general reminiscence. By just listening to this song I feel a lot can be learned about how memories appreciate when time passes. By this I mean the general "suck factor" of life fades away in time. For example one line: "Telling me how to raise my boy unless he's taking over. I said pop maybe when you're older." I feel this line shows how even the advice of an over reaching parent, which is usually annoying and overbearing, can grow to hold nostalgia overtime. This song is amazing and will only grow in relevance as memories grow in the mind of the listener. This song makes me remember my past as a positive over negative and I am very thankful for it. | |
