Go Ahead and Laugh: Songs of Adolescence Meme - from tanith_astlik
The idea is to go here: http://longboredsurfer.com/charts.php, and for every year you were in high school, pick your favorite then and now, and also the worst one.
1973
Fave then: "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)"
Fave now: "Superstition"
Worst: "Twelfth of Never"
1974
Fave then: "The Entertainer"
Fave now: "Leave Me Alone (Ruby Red Dress)"
Worst: "I'm Leaving It All up to You" (Donny & Marie again)
1975
Fave then: "You're No Good"
Fave now: "Fame"
Worst: "Morning Side of the Mountain" (because Donny & Marie automatically lose)
1976
Fave then: "Love Hurts"
Fave now: "Love Is Alive" (actually I prefer Joan Osborne's version of this from the '90s)
Worst: "Deep Purple" (Donny & Marie again)
1977
Fave then: "Year of the Cat"
Fave now: "I Wish"
Worst: "I'm In You" (I'm like, eeeww)
I noticed this because tanith_astlik, who I got it from, was in high school the exact same years as I was. That was a very painful time in my life, which I left behind me long ago. I agree with Tanith, what happened to "Pinball Wizard"?
