When I was a wee lad (and I mean weeeeeee), I had this little plastic toy train. It was motorized, so that when you pushed on the top of it (where the steam I guess would normally come out of a real train), it would move forward. I have some hazy memories of trying to make a bridge with wood blocks or something and watching the train move across the bridge. I also have hazy memories of losing the train, and finding it underneath the fridge. One day it became lost forever, but I always think that I will look behind the fridge one day and it will be sitting there. I really like the theme you chose for the song! The mix sounds great!
I'm not sure why, but this tune really reminds me of Wham's "Last Christmas".
Anyways,i REALLY like how you've been able to capture that nostalgic feeling of looking at old photos of yourself as a kid. Fantastic work!
Awesome, I'm glad someone else did synthpop this week. Fantastic track- Smooth and relaxing and I can totally hear the lyrics and singing! I guess next time we'll need to write lyrics and recruit singers...

Thanks for sharing your story! That's 100% the feeling I was going for hope you find it again someday

Thank you! I tried writing lyrics but didn't get very far haha. Someday though maybe
This feels very nice, maybe not quite nostalgic for me, maybe the EQ is off for that, but I like this a lot.

Good happy sounds and melody for remembering, and playing with toys to! Never too late to play with some toys!
