Driving home tonight I heard a song on the radio that 1)I'd never heard, and 2)I really, REALLY liked. That doesn't happen much, I've become disillusioned with radio and often opt for the iPod. However, I wasn't really paying attention while driving down I-285 and all of a sudden I just registered that this song I'm listening to is quite nice.
Turns out, the song is by the group Over The Rhine. Yeah, never heard of them either. Came home and quickly checked iTunes and found the song in question, 'Suitcase' and listened to a preview of it and some of their other songs. I wasn't too impressed with most, with the exception of the song in question, and this other one 'Latter Days.' So I purchased both and have been listening to both.
After one full listen, it registers in my mind that 'Latter Days' is familiar. So, the trivial brain I occupy starts churning. Where do I know it from? Tv..what show? It was a show that doesn't air any longer, but I enjoyed. I kept wanting to say it was Dawson's Creek-but I wouldn't commit to it. It couldn't be. Dawson's Creek is such crap-which unfortunately I didn't realize until they started showing the reruns on TBS.
Google! I always preach the gospel of Google. It's definitely helped clear my mind before. So I googled "Latter Days+Over the Rhine+tv" and in the first link I can see it does mention and then it hits me. FELICITY! This song was played at the end of the episode when Julie leaves, a particularly sad episode when Julie checks out because of all the emotional stress in her life.
Ok fine. If I'm being honest, the reason I felt this was worth mentioning is because, me being the complete and TOTAL GEEK that I am...when hearing the dj name the band "Over the Rhine" I had to commit that name to memory and I usually use tricks like word association so I thought "over the rhine...rhine...beck. Rhinebeck. Felicity went to Rhinebeck with that dude and Ben followed them." So, in actuality, I foreshadowed that epiphany.
Must pull out all 4 seasons of Felicity on dvd and waste away a weekend soon.
