I'm pretty happy to see that somebody else mentioned a Linkin Park album on this thread. Anyway, this album is one of the main reasons why I got into music in the first place, since it was also one of the first actual music albums I bought on my own. I remember knowing it existed and I also remember saving up all the money I could just to get to a CD shop and buy it. Unfortunately, when I finally found it, I still didn't have enough since it was a little bit more than I had. The best thing was when my dad decided to help me pay for the rest because he knew how much I wanted it. So that night, I listened to it and fell in love with it and got to my favorite song Breaking The Habit. I'm sure that's everybody favorite off the album since MTV showed that music video a lot back then. Anyway, i'm rambling a lot here, but this album was a huge step forward in what I think of music now, and it helped me get into many other genres and artist. |
I think that's such a cool story! Like your dad knew you weren't just asking him to pay for it; you'd saved and saved and then when you hadn't enough he helped you out. That's real love! It would have been horrible if, after all that scrimping and saving (I'm assuming you were pretty young if you had to save for a single CD) you had to leave the shop and come back when you'd scraped together the difference.
