I was making a humorous reference to the song, via the line "I was there",
> To all the kids in Tokyo and Berlin.
I'm losing my edge to the art-school Brooklynites in little jackets and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered eighties.
> But I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge, but I was there.
I was there.
But I was there.
It's a song which has a type of nostalgia analogous to the one in this thread.
