Hold on to that fee-eeli-in'. That's like a mandatory wedding song. I was talking with my mom, and she said that when it came out they had no idea that "Don't Stop Believing" would be the legend that it is today. It's not even her favorite Journey song. And I was like, "Journey has other songs?!"
Just kidding.
But it does make me wonder which songs of today our own children will immortalize. *please let it not be The Black Eyed Peas* Every song will be an oldie someday. Which songs do you think will be forever songs, and which songs will blow over and be forgotten? That will be a serious punch in the gut, the day little Marlene refers to Coldplay as oldies or asks if I ever had an actual CD of Maroon 5.
Also kidding. I would never name my child Marlene.
"Hey Now" by David Barnes
This song makes me happy. It also makes me want to talk in a funny accent. Don't judge me; I'm having more fun than you. But it really does it for me when they whip out the whistling in the middle of an upbeat song. And they don't overdo it either. Bravo, David Barnes.
"Love love love" by Avalanche City
Please. Please tell me this music video isn't a penguin in love on a boat, fighting a pirate and being rescued by a blimp. Someone tell me it isn't so. Who does this? Penguins? Leave the penguins be!! What did penguins ever do to pirates! They don't even have booty to steal! Just, like, useless feathers and such. Times like these tell me that I should be making music videos for a living.
But, I mean, lovely song.
"Dreams" by The Cranberries
Why? Because I feel like it. Once I bought a Woodstock '94 CD because this song was on it and I was young and stupid. Other artists included Porno for Pyros and Salt n Pepa. It was utterly terrifying.
