Every time you hear the song “Déjà Vu” by Dionne Warwick (1979), does it seem you’ve heard it before? Hey, wait . . .
LYRICS:
… This is insane All you did was say hello Speak my name Feeling your love Like a love I used to know Long ago How can it be? We're a different space in time Come to me Feel like I'm home In a place I used to know Long ago Deja Vu Could you be the dream that I once knew? Is it you? Deja Vu Could you be the dream that might come true? Shining through I keep remembering me I keep remembering you Deja Vu
… This is devine I been waiting all my life Filling time Looking for you That's worth more than you could know Long ago Come to me now We don't have to dream of love We know how Somewhere before It's as if I loved you so So long ago Deja Vu Could you be the dream that I once knew? Is it you? Deja Vu Could you be the dream that might come true? Shining through I keep remembering me I keep remembering you Deja Vu Deja Vu Deja Vu Deja Vu Deja Vu Could you be the dream that I once knew? Is it you? Deja Vu Could you be the dream that might come true? Shining through I keep remembering me I keep remembering you Deja Vu Deja Vu Could you be the dream that I once knew? Is it you? Deja Vu Could you be the dream that might come true? Shining through
Yeah - - and then just tonight I heard Olivia Rodrigo sing her different "Deja Vu" song. And thenI thought of Tanita Tikaram's "It All Came Back Today" and then . . .

I had never even heard of Olivia Rodrigo nor have I ever heard of her song before I searched for the graphics to include with this post. Rodrigo’s song, being newer, popped up first when I used the title as a keyword search. I still know nothing about it, as I have not listened to it and I doubt that I ever will. ~
I actually like it. I think Olivia is relatively new on the scene. (So far, I've now heard about three total songs from her, and I find them actually enjoyable to listen to - - but, to me, they're all meanspirited I-hate-you-because-you-broke-up-with-me type of songs. One was okay to me - - but I got tired of that theme by the third one, ha.)
On the other hand, I have yet to tire of listening to Tikaram! :)
