I haven't done this in a while, and a conversation with umeedmerchant gave me a good idea, so tonight I bring you:

Songs from my childhoodI was born in 1981, so these are mostly songs from around '85 or '86. Songs that really bring me back to being like, 5. It's totally what my friends like to call "Secretary Rock," but it's impossible to resist. Could also ( Read more... )

did you read SBP?

ack_attack August 30 2006, 02:58:06 UTC

lol...no. I kept getting sidetracked! And I really want to read it too. If I don't have time tomorrow (because of the Lost post that I'm going to do) I will definitely read it Thursday because I'm all alone at the office for 9 hours and I need something to keep me entertained!

Sweet! I cannot pass up 80s music ever. Taking more songs than I should admit to.

When I was 5 (in 1987), I'd love when my parents would put on their Huey Lewis and the News albums. I'd just dance and dance around the living room. :D

I guess you parents didn't listen to much classic rock?

Mine list would consist of The Beatles, The Kinks, the Stones, the Dead, the Talking Heads, The Police, Bob Marley, Vince Guaraldi, Steeley Dan, Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks, etc.

I'm pretty sure my parents were the 80's equivalent of jaded hipsters.

Though I'm told I was also a HUGE fan of Uptown Girl, but mostly because I had a little best friend who loved that song. Though that song came out in '83... making us 2. Which makes sense, cause that little best friend of mine was from the townhouses we lived in before we moved when I was three. Which also explains why I can't remember shit about it.

My dad only listens to Neil Young, Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, and CSNY.

But I did ya know...leave me house. And my mom listened to that crap too. And I was you know...4. And 4 year olds usually don't listen to the Talking Heads.

JOHN LISTEN TO YOURSELF. If I shoed this comment to our friends they would laugh at you forever.

johnhutch August 30 2006, 11:49:31 UTC

er, yeah. That was the point.
