I wrote this song about my teenage years. Back in high school and back in the earlier days of
the internet. Before texting, smartphones, and social media. It’s funny to think about, back in like
2005 - 2009 I used to use AOL to message friends. If you don't know what AOL is, it was
basically an app to text people on the computer lol. You would sign on, see who’s online and
you could only talk to ppl online and who you were friends with. You could have away messages
and stuff like that lol. Anyway, when you’re a kid, that kind of stuff is pretty exciting. Being able
to talk to your crush behind a screen. Being so nervous to send a message, being so anxious
for them to reply, and getting a rush of excitement when they do reply. I remember having
crushes in high school and being so nervous to talk to them. On top of that you have all the high
school drama. High school is a terrible place lol. But I wrote this song about my first crush and
how different it used to be to communicate with each other and how different it feels when
you’re that young experiencing liking someone for the first time. It feels corny and cheesy, but
you get these butterflies when you talk to them, and can't help but want to talk to them all the
time. I used to talk on AOL and on the phone to my crush all night after school. It’s also funny
cause back in the day, AOL would take up a lot of internet so no one else could really use
anything else unless you had great internet lol. It’s just funny for me to look back on. Young love
is so innocent. You don't need anything else but their company and I think that's something you
can kind of lose sight of as you grow older. I think it happens to everyone, you start to look back
at your younger years, and miss how things used to be. You know nostalgia. That’s how I feel at
least. I miss the days of AOL, it felt more simple. Idk lol. I hope you like the song.
