Yes, it is amazing to me how songs can trigger memories both good and bad. There are songs that I used to like that I find it hard to listen to because of the events associated with them. On the other hand, there are some songs that I don't really like, that I will listen to because of the happy memories they bring.

Oh Mr. Wendell. I hope we never have to hear it again! A lot of those songs I actually really like though but I guess it all depends on what they relate to in your life and being forced to listen to them over and over and over . It is crazy how much songs relate to memories. I don't know if I wrote about this or not when it happened but a few months ago one of my friends from when I was younger e-mailed me because they heard "one sweet daY" by mariah carey and it made them laugh adn think of us and it was weird cuz I had heard it like the next day for the first time in forev. But really that song was from like 1 moment. of our lives like 15 years ago and its funny how much it still strikes a chord in both of us. Music is powerful that way.

I knew there would be some backlash on this. I forgot my worst favorite song so I just added it to the top, Arrested Development Mr. Wendell.

There are a lot of songs that I like from the 90's and I hope to one day make a list of them too. They are probably more from the later 90's I think. (e:tiny) and (e:brit) we are all the same age, I can definitely see (e:brit) with the straight up bangs that were so popular back then.

(e:uncutsaniflush), I thought this would spark your interests. Did I ever like these songs or did I just grow to hate them because they were so overplayed? I would say that I never really liked these ones but it definitely is making me think. Actually, I would say that these songs really alienated me from music at the time. Of course this was pre Internet was everywhere era so it was kind of hard to have access to anything that my parents didn't own or that wasn't on the radio.

I really think that I especially hate these songs not just because they aren't my taste but for the association they have in my life. The bus, 98pxy and my life which for the most part during these years was not so happy. It was interesting because Mike and I were at Cathode and strangely they began showing the videos of this period and this all started coming back to me.

I love how music really makes you remember different times, people or places in your life. It is so powerful really, even though these songs make me remember things from the past that weren't that happy, I am sort of glad for them.

Chumbawamba is a genius btw. No one is allowed to hate them!

brit - 04/12/11 22:51
absolute classics there my love!

Wait... not high school, more like primary-middle school. Because I took a 1 hour bus ride to school each way then and we didn't get to hear any songs on the way. We chatted non-stop or made-up and sang our own song parodies. In high school, I walked 5 minutes to school because my parents had finally decided that I was wasting too much time commuting...

tinypliny - 04/12/11 21:58
HEY! Those were all the songs when I was in high school! :-) I like them still!

uncutsaniflush - 04/12/11 21:28
Did you ever like the songs? Or did you grow to hate them? It would piss me off more if the experience took songs I liked and poisoned them.

For some reason, your post reminds me of the Talking Heads song Heaven. :::link::: "The band in heaven plays my favorite song. They play it once again, they play it all night long."

Apparently, there is a thin line between concepts of Hell and Heaven.

I feel for you about being made fun of for your accent. Growing up in a Detroit suburb that was predominantly German-American, I didn't have a name, I was just that "dumb Polak." It probably didn't help that when I moved to the U.S. at the age of 6, I didn't speak English.

a couple years ago I took some pictures of the flowing Ice down at the marina and it the pictures you could kinda tell the ice looked different but only through video could you really tell it moved....

Apparently, (e:brit) has a honey badger on her facebook with her head on it.

Nevermind: :::link::: "It is classed as Least Concern by the IUCN due to its extensive range and general environmental adaptations. It is a primarily carnivorous species, and has few natural predators due to its thick skin and ferocious defensive abilities."

tinypliny - 04/08/11 17:46
Is that a real animal or a urban-wild myth?

mike - 04/06/11 22:12
absolutely terrifying!

metalpeter - 03/29/11 17:27
With the exception of yours and Bugs Bunny they are all pretty freaky.... But yours just by comparison isn't sketchy ..... I'm sure you have seen some version of "The Easter Bunny Hates You" video some of these bunnies would really make the video and some of them long almost Alien or like they are from a Horror movie.....

You're right. I wish Buffalo had this for our criminals.
