I remember dragging this song so hard when I first heard it.
It has some flawless remixes though.

I remember the first time I heard it... I was so confused, because I wasn't really falling in love with it. 2nd time was a little better. By the 3rd time I was screaming along, completely in love
Such an incredible day
