A song from college or early adulthood.
I wasn't 18 when this song came out, but 2004 was a pretty big year for me. Losing a grandparent, finishing high school, starting university. Angst, heartbreak, you name it.
I did not have an iPod at this time, but I did have a CD player, and then later a network of computers in our dormitory sharing their iTunes libraries. Feel in many ways that a song like this is a marker for a whole era of music.
