Core memory unlocked! The anticipation of waiting for the download to complete and then hear something absolutely wrong was frustrating but I look back at it now and can't help but laugh.

I had a copy of Are You Gonna Be My Girl by Jet that would cut out and loop back in the middle of the song. I listened to it so much I could sing along without missing a beat. Then whenever I heard the right version, it always felt weird when the song flowed through normally.

Then you end up hating the "original" because you associate the downloaded one as the original and then life can never be the same again.

Just load up Winamp and listen to it on your beige plastic speakers and forget the actual version exists.

Ah.

Memories.
