One of those things
Warning: This article contains cheese
The most amazing thing has just happened to the Editor. It's one of those little coincidences that happen occasionally in life that make you pause and think about how great the world is.
A few days ago Ed discovered a CD from a band he'd never heard of and really liked it. Today he downloaded a couple of their previous albums from the interweb (for money, dudes, Ed's no thief) and was sitting at his computer, just now, listening to them.
One song ends on Winamp and another begins. All of a sudden the Editor is back in London at 5am on December 29, 2000, waking up to the same song on his clock radio. Ed's heard this song a few times over the last couple of weeks and really liked it. But this day is no normal day. Outside it has snowed overnight and the Editor's about to hop a bus to Edinburgh to enjoy new year's celebrations with a girl that he's head-over-heels about, had a certain degree of success with over a month or two, but has not totally won over yet. This girl is to eventually become Ed's fiance (and wife in January '06).
Anyway, back to the song. Since that day the Editor has never heard it again but often thought about it. Problem was, he had no idea what it was called. So when it started playing from his computer speakers but ten minutes ago it was one of those moments. Just thought he'd share.
