With hits like “Only Wanna Be With You”, “Hold My Hand” and “Let Her Cry” Cracked Rear View remains the 9th best selling album in music history.

My husband and I moved here in Alabama 2 years ago, from Aiken County, South Carolina. This song played on his playlist, and now I'm even more homesick for South Carolina.... where we lived for over 20 years, and raised 4 kids. I love this song, and makes me want to go back home. Two of our kids went to USC .... but the better part of those 20 years of my life was spent in South Carolina. Alabama is a beautiful state, but it isn't home.

'Teach me about tomorrow, all the pain the sorrow.' Missing our better days. Let's go back to the 90's, listening to Hootie on the radio.

[@murphyr31]

Time why you punish me Like a wave bashing into the shore You wash away my dreams Time why you walk away Like a friend with somewhere to go You left me crying Can you teach me 'bout tomorrow And all the pain and sorrow running free 'Cause tomorrow's just another day And I don't believe in time Time I don't understand Children killing in the street Dying for the color of red Time there red and blue Wash them in the ocean, make them clean Maybe their mother won't cry tonight Can you teach me about tomorrow And all the pain and sorrow running free But tomorrow's just another day And I don't believe in Time is wasting time is walking You ain't no friend of mine I don't know where I'm goin' I think I'm out of my mind Thinking about time And if I die tomorrow Just lay me down in sleep Time is wasting time is walking You ain't no friend of mine I don't know where I'm goin' I think I'm out of my mind Thinking about time Time you left me standing there Like a tree growing all alone The wind just stripped me bare Stripped me bare Time the past has come and gone The future's far away And now only lasts for one second, one second Can you teach me 'bout tomorrow And all the pain and sorrow, running free 'Cause tomorrow's just another day And I don't believe in time You ain't no friend of mine I don't know where I'm goin' I think I'm out of my mind Walking, wasting You ain't no friend of mine And I don't know where I'm goin' No don't know Time without courage And time without fear Is just wasted, wasted Wasted time Time why you punish me

[@DelayInBlockProductions]

This song popped up for me today while I was in a store. I darn near cried. First time I've heard it in a little over a month since the funeral for my aunt, oldest sister, and younger brother after they were all killed in a car accident when another driver crossed over the centerline. This song was for my aunt. Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day for my sister, and the MSU fight song for my brother. It just perfectly encapsulates the bittersweetness for me. It helps me remember all three of them, but also reminds me that they are gone. Thank you to the band for giving me this connection.
