I like old musicals... "Camelot", "West Side Story"... stuff like that. Even "Paint Your Wagon", Clint Eastwood's first and (to the best of my knowledge) only singing role. I recently discovered that a lot of old stuff is available here and there on the 'net... I'd just never looked before.
So I found some old tracks from "Camelot". But... something was wrong! This isn't how I remembered it! Surely the words didn't go like that... or could my memory really be so bad? Had I really edited my memory so much? Luckily, it turned out that there were multiple versions of Camelot available, from several different theatrical recordings... and I found the "real" one (that is, the one that I remember so well) without too much trouble.
But I had some bad moments, there... just how well do I remember the past? I'll never be as certain as I once was.

you have your memory backed up on tape somewhere too, don't you?
