I'm reminded of a lyric by The Stingrays (ask your grandad). "20 years of nothing and what have I learned/I've learned nothing" * Not that I'm saying that the correspondents below have learned nothing in their lives. It was merely the idea of looking at yourself after 20 or so years and taking stock. In a lyrical stylee. Anyway, the Stingrays were ace and their album 'Cryptic And Coffee Time" is a particular favourite. It was on the same label as the early Valentines stuff. "Behind The Beyond" is the song I like best. I really am very old, aren't I? 33 years of indie pop and what have I learned...

This reminded me of a Built to spill lyric...
I've spent twenty-two years with myself. Sometimes it's amazing to think that I've stuck with myself through the ups and downs.
Hard to believe /that after all this time/ after all this time/ I'm still me.
