Send Me an Angel - Real Life:
When I was 13, we moved in to a new house, which had an unfinished basement. I'd recently watched the movie "Rad", which had this song in it. This song will always remind me of doing tricks on my brother's little Mongoos BMX bike down in the basement, listening to this "cassette", being...well...rad.
Beastie Boys - Girls:
Back in my jr. high days, my mother didn't allow "rap" to be played in my house...she specifically didn't want me listening to these guys. While I was a relatively good child and did mostly what my parents told me, this was one area in which I rebelled. I mean c'mon..it was the BEASTIE BOYS!
Biz Markie - Just a Friend
My sophomore year in high school our basketball team made it to State. Due to the fact that we had a kickass pep club, the drill team and cheerleaders were allowed to attend and perform between quarters and at halftime. Just a Friend is the anthem for that trip...and sometime I'll have to tell the story about Dennis Blunden asleep in our hotel bathtub, and the basketball coach's poor wife having to sleep on a cot out in the hall in front of our room.
Silly Ho - TLC:
This was fun! I'll do another one soon. In the meantime...your turn!
