Tune In Tuesday {45} - My Teen Years


Tune In Tuesday is a fun weekly post hosted by Ginger at GReads.  It's a great way to see what kind of music other people are loving right now. And we're back in a special edition month! 


July (from G's blog) - My Teen Years Special Edition: What were you listening to when you were a teenager? We all come from different decades, with different tunes.  For this month, please pick some of your favorite songs that bring you back to those glorious teenage years!


I skipped a year and just did songs that remind me of my senior year in HS. 



Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication 

No Doubt - Ex Girlfriend

No Doubt - Simple Kind of Life

LEN - Steal My Sunshine

Madonna - Beautiful Stranger

98 Degrees - Invisible Man - I adored this boy band in HS. Saw them in concert too. This is one of my favorite songs from them. Recently saw where they are getting back together for a concert or two!!

Silverchair - Anthem of the Year 2000 - This was our class song (can you guess what year I graduated?!). While I wanted Freebird, this was a heck of a lot better than Willenium!

Vitamin-C - Graduation Song - This song played on the radio ALL THE TIME around graduation and still makes me cry.

Seeing a pattern? Yeah, I LOVED (still do) No Doubt! They have a new album out this year. Settle Down is the first single off the CD.

I've had a blast with this feature, I hope you have too!

I was a teen in the mid to late 90s. 90s alternative/grunge is still some of my all time favorite music (I adore the 90s alternative Pandora station). I'm posting music from 1996 (year I started HS) to 2000 (graduation). So last week my post posted without the videos, so I'm doing two in one. Last weeks was 1998. 


Semisonic - Closing Time

Eve 6 - Inside Out

New Radicals - You Get What You Give

Eagle Eye Cherry - Save Tonight

Also...I DID NOT, DO NOT, WILL NOT like the Beastie Boys. ;)


And this week is 1999. 


Lit - My Own Worst Enemy

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Scar Tissue

Dido - Here With Me

Korn - Freak On A Leash

Also...Dave Matthews Band (especially the song Crash)...do not like.
