1962. My brother John was killed by a drunk driver when he was 18. This song was playing on the ride home after I was informed of his death. When things got really bad - I would sing to myself - big girls don't cry. I have never forgotten this song. And I've never forgotten John.

Aw Babe🥺💔I am so sorry. Crazy how one song can take you right back to that moment. Coldplay “Talk” is that song for me. I was driving and found my best friends car in a parking lot when I was listening to it. She had committed suicide in her car and I found her. Sending hugs🫶
