i've been thinking about making this mix for awhile, long before i ever knew about MTC. some of these songs i like, some of these songs i can't stand but all of them remind me of this crazy chunk of time right after eighth grade and into freshman year of high school. lots of memories, mostly good, some shitty. either way, these are just some of those stupid songs which throw me to back in the day.

| 9 | Everclear : I Will Buy You a New Life |
|
I loved that Art referenced the fact that in the Rogue Valley, along with many other places, the rich people always live on top of hills. I also loved that my friend, Alissa, who had a big ass house on the very top of the hill in my neighborhood, didn't understand what he meant.

The first time I heard this song was in the car on our way to Boston. We went back east to bring my sister to college and headed to Boston for my birthday weekend. My sister and I tried so so hard to figure out all the lyrics, but really the only one that stuck was "watching X-Files with no lights on." I loved that show... SHOW MORE

Holy crap. I put half those songs on my graduation mix from high school. All these songs just bring back great, random memories. Do you know how jealous I was that you got to go to a concert and I didn't? To this day, I've wanted to see Fastball in concert because of that.

Iris was in City of Angels. The way.. wow. Corny, but I like it. I saw Fast Ball in Grants Pass a few years ago. Pretty decent show.

It's kind of sad that around the end of every school year (usually more than once) someone still picks up a guitar at an assembly and plays "Good Riddance" even though I hear leadership campaigns SPECIFICALLY against that song.

DUDE I totally went through a 90s thing like last week, and like half of these songs were involved. And also the Spice Girls. But whatever. FREAKIN NATALIE IMBURGLIA DUDE. I love that song.
Barenaked Ladies I used to like, but GOD I can't STAND them now, they get stuck in my head everytime you say even the titles of any of their songs.

There is a lot of steam emitting from this mix. Good memory joggers, though.

I believe both the song 'Iris' and Alanis' 'Uninvited' were on the City of Angels OST. Yeah, I had it.
Also, fuck Everclear.
Also, can't you just FEEL the tension between Mulder and Scully in that pic??

One time, this girl I was 'seeing' dragged me to an Alanis show. I got drunk off of wine-served-from-dixie-cups and yelled at her on stage. I made a complete ass of myself.
Even moreso than usual.
