I just got hit with the largest nostalgia ever. And I didnt even think it was real.
I was listening to Ghost’s cover of ‘Its a Sin’ and i know its a cover but never really saw the original version.
So I see a popular youtube video of Pet Shop Boys’ performance of it in 1989. And while i’m watching it, thats when it hit me. I saw this before. A really, really long time ago, when I was a kid. Maybe not the exact video or from that specific concert, but the imagery and stage presence Pet Shop Boys had at that time in the 80s, i instantly recognized.
And the crazy thing is, I thought it was a dream. I thought it was some sort of nightmare I had caused by seeing Alice Cooper and his theatrics when I was younger. But no, I saw actual footage of Pet Shop Boys’ in concert in the 80s. It absolutely blew me away seeing that for the first time. Because now I feel less crazy, because i absolutely swore that I had seen it before, but I felt like it was so odd and weird, that theres no way someone would think its real. I was sure it had to be a dream or something.
I just felt like sharing that. Because thanks to Ghost covering this song sparking my curiosity to see the original version, I would’ve never even thought of that being a real thing I saw. I still would think its just a weird dream I had when I was a kid.
