      Same here. I was starting my senior year when I watched the movie for the first time. This song stuck with me all year till graduation. Really takes me back. My first car, my first road trip with that car. All the possibilities were ahead.

      Was just a nicer time, people didn't seem so disconnected from each other which is ironic I know as the internet has connected us more with regards tech but the atmosphere was just so much nicer, it's hard to pinpoint what's missing but it just felt a 'lighter' time.

      @@lemonz0880 I won't never forget my parents crying and screaming the day of the crash, it was really hard seeing my mom losing her mind that I could hear her yelling one block away from home. Seeing my parents losing their mind, it is something I will never forget, this images on my mind will stay forever.
      Although I am doing much better, I will miss him forever. I am glad I could find this beautiful song to feel his presence beside me.

    My pa was in the Canadian Navy and went away for long periods of time. 6 months at a time, frequently. He would bring me back the most beautiful worldly gifts. Handmade instruments, a wooden blimp with a little wooden captain that would circle around my bed like a mobile, a ship in a glass bottle, a gorgeous handmade kite... but he also brought home music. I remember him bringing home this album and being so fascinated by it. It hadn't even hit North America at that time, he was way ahead of the game! This song is special to me for that reason. Love you dad.

    Music like this simply does not exist from any new “artists.” Bic is obviously one hell of a lyricist and the tonal quality from the several instruments in the song make it so rich on the ears. Makes me truly miss the 90’s..... my God, where has the time gone?

    Don't stray
    Don't ever go away
    I should be much too smart for this
    You know it gets the better of me
    Sometimes
    When you and I collide
    I fall into an ocean of you
    Pull me out in time
    Don't let me drown
    Let me down
    I say it's all because of you
    And here I go
    Losing my control
    I'm practicing your name
    So I can say it
    To your face it doesn't
    Seem right
    To look you in the eye
    Let all the things
    You mean to me
    Come tumbling out my mouth
    Indeed it's time
    Tell you why
    I say it's
    Infinitely true
    Say you'll stay
    Don't come and go
    Like you do
    Sway my way
    Yeah I need to know
    All about you
    And there's no cure
    And no way to be sure
    Why everything's turned inside out
    Instilling so much doubt
    It makes me so tired
    I feel so uninspired
    My head is battling with my heart
    My logic has been torn apart
    And now
    It all turns sour
    Come sweeten
    Every afternoon
    Say you'll stay
    Don't come and go
    Like you do
    Sway my way
    Yeah I need to know
    All about you
    Say you'll stay
    Don't come and go
    Like you do
    Sway my way
    Yeah I need to know
    All about you
    It's all because of you
    It's all because of you
    Now it all turns sour
    Come sweeten
    Every afternoon
    It's time
    Tell you why
    I say it's
    Infinitely true
    Say you'll stay
    Don't come and go
    Like you do
    Sway my way
    Yeah I need to know
    All about you
    Say you'll stay
    Don't come and go
    Like you do
    Sway my way
    Yeah I need to know
    All about you
    It's all because of you
    It's all because of you
    It's all because of you

    Watched all the American Pie movies Saturday, Sunday, and today. The spin offs aren’t very good, but Jim’s dad is a gem in all of them, gives him a lot more backstory for his character. I watched American Reunion today and I had to listen to the soundtrack, brought me to this. The 4 original American Pie films are awesome. The spin-offs fell to capture that spirit that all the regular cast seem to have.
