"A Season for Courage." One of my roommates (Cami?) brought this to school with her. I'd never heard it before. But the music was wonderful! I still listen to it all of the time! Brother Kunz was my seminary teacher my senior year of High School. I remember hearing him sing his songs, and like the other, I loved them. These two music albums are VERY important to me because they helped me to gain my own testimony of the gospel.
Okay, some of you may think I'm a lame, 13 year old girl. And I suppose I could be. But I love Avril Lavigne. At least her first album and some of her second and third. During an internship I had, my friend Jo and I used to drive around in the company truck blaring her. We were listening to it when I got us stuck in the gravel, when we put scratches up and down both sides of the truck, and when I got the truck stuck on a log pole fence and dented the bumper. Plus, Complicated was popular the summer Jake and I dated, and on our first date, I think we heard it on the radio a dozen times.
Ironic was an anthum for Anna and I. Once we were riding our bikes past the house of a boy she like (I know you love Jack!) and we belted it at the top of our lungs. Then we went and bought penny candy! I think we were only 14 or 15!
Okay, once again, you may think I'm a 13 year old girl. "A Walk to Remember" Becky and I went and saw this movie probably six or seven times at the cheap theatre in Idaho Falls the summer of 2002. That was the funnest summer of my life!!! At least my single life. Summer in Rexburg was sooo much fun! So whenever I hear this music, it makes me think of Becky and that fabulous summer!
Okay, I've always liked Kenny Chesney. Even though he's short and bald. I think I started to like this album that same summer 0f 2002. My roommate, Angela, copied it onto a tape for me. Remember those? But I really just like it because it has so many really good songs on it!
Once again, please don't think I'm a tard or anything. I really hate Barbie Girl. But I really, really enjoy most of the rest of this album. Its so danceable. I used to crank it up and shower. I'm sure the roomies loved that! Stacey brought this to us. It was so much fun to dance to!
Tim McGraw's Set This Circus Down was the first album I bought in high school alone. That sounds weird. I was always being influenced by people to buy certain things, or not buy certain things. But this was the first one I bought absolutely all by myself! Such a big girl! I love these songs, they're sooo good! I'm not a music critic, so that's what you get. They're so good!
Am I noticing a trend here? My mom and I used to watch Pure Country all the time. She still calls me to tell me when its on tv, even though we don't have tv. Plus it has the best love song of all time on it. I Cross My Heart You can't tell me that song doesn't make you tear up a little bit!
What's to say? Its Michelle Branch! I actually think Becky introduced her to me, too. That wonderful summer! But I listen to it while I drive, and I sing REALLY loudly. So if you ever see me singing in the car, its probably this. Every single song on her first album is awesome and so good. Once again, not a music critic! Her next couple albums haven't been nearly as good as this one. But I do like her country twang! There is lots and lots of music that bring back memories for me. Theres always the high school songs that I detest now from n'sync or Britney Spears. I just thought of another! Bowling for Soup. Jake likes them, so they make me think of him. He's so cute! These are just some of the complete albums that remind me of some of the people I love! What music brings back memories for you?
