I miss music from the 90s. Jason started playing throwbacks before FRO the other day and it reminded me of all the great music from when I was a kid. I don’t know if it was necessarily because the music was great or just because I associate the music with times where everything was easy but to this day music from the 90s is my favorite. Bands like Counting Crows, 3 Doors Down, Oasis and Matchbox Twenty on top of all the countless one hit wonders such as Closing Time by Semisonic and Save Tonight by Eagle Eye Cherry just have the kind of sound that never fails to make me feel nostalgic.
Im actually very surprised no ones written about music in these blogs yet. Maybe its because we all had to do the top 10 list for FRO but today it clicked with me that this was such an obvious choice. Music is something universal, not necessarily the type of music, but the power it has to link up with certain events. I think people tend to associate events or time periods with songs. For example all the bands I listed above remind of when I was younger and life was so easy. It was just me, my friends, and the park. And of course my 90s music.
Funny you should mention-
We have a 90s dance party in the dorm building tomorrow! Wooooooo! hahaha, everyone’s invited! Just sayin’
