By the Way

So... my ipod crapped the bed.. finally.. after 5 years.. So this work in progress.. Of top 50 songs.. kinda got the boot.


Umm.. yeah.. So i was going to pick this back up and keep going with it.. But my ipod failed on me.


So if i can get it to where the computer at least recognizes it as a hard drive and itunes will pick it up.. i will work on finishing this later.. But not right now..

number 40




Thrash!!!!!


Caught in a Mosh-Anthrax


What more can be said.. this song is awesome.. May not be everyone's cup of tea.. But it's mine.. lol..

number 41




Taking Back Sunday-Makedamnsure


I'm pretty sure this song got all of it's plays in one day last year (my birthday actually) when a really close friend of mine and his girlfriend at the time were going through a tough patch and he saw how cool another girl would've been to him.

But it was cool. Me and dude were spearheading a party at this club.. kinda a back to school party type deal... and the whole time we were out making arrangements for the night.. Gettin all our proverbial ducks in a row... We were listening to this song because he liked the emotion in it.. After all was said and done.. Party happened.. It was my birthday.. i got drunk.. It was fun..

number 42




The Hollow-A Perfect Circle



This is a cool addition because according to my ipod, i have actually listened to this song more than i have the song Judith. Which is also on this album.. So I guess i can just go ahead and rock my APC story. Cuz this is it for them haha.

Alright me and my 2 really good friends from home matt and trav discovered napster about the same time everyone else did. And they had a computer with a whole 6 gigs of space on it and enough RAM to support actually downloading stuff, whereas i did not. So i'd spend hours and hours and hours just gettin music on there.. We had seen Judith's video being played on Muchmusic, and had decided to get it.. Well accidently clicking i got it and the song three libras. Which at the time they weren't too fond of.


Well regardless i dug it.. so i went to Cheap Thrills as i usually did back then to buy music, and picked up Mer De Noms.

As soon as i put the cd into my car cd player i knew i had something i liked just due to the fact that this song is the first on the CD.

The really interesting sidenote was that i knew this guy was the singer for Tool.. But i actually liked APC for a lot longer than i have liked the band Tool.

If you have an interest in music whatsoever i really really really encourage you to listen to this song. I am kinda suprised it's not ranked a little higher to be honest.

number 43




Ok.. So regardless of the fact that Atlantic Records wouldn't let me embed the actual video of this song..


Trippin in a hole in a paper heart-Stone Temple Pilots is number 43



What a blast seein STP live was. A ton of us went to see them a few summers back in Charlotte NC and wow.. it was awesome start to finish.. But that's not where my love for this band started at all..


Back when i was in high school, my family would go to Myrtle beach for about the entirety of July. This is one of those songs that when i got the courage to tackle driving down there they would jam on the radio all the time, me and my car plus this equals a frickin blast exploring sides that i'd never seen on our typical family vacations.


So yeah.. one again.. like alice in chains before this.. you probably haven't heard the last of STP in this list.. So i gotta save some stuff about them for later in the list. :)

number 44





About A Girl-The Academy is..


Umm.. yeah.. just listen to the song.. and look at the name of the song.. it pretty much says it all.

Me and said girl had a blast but we were better friends than a couple.. it's another one of those summer deals..


Already i can see the trend that i listen to a lot of different music during the summer... and stick to the norms during the fall/winter/spring...

number 45



Cake-I will survive..



I dunno why but this has ALWAYS been a party favorite for me to play.. from Mix Cd's that i made for the old "house" that we all knew so well back in the day. To the Falcon House that took it's place after we couldnt party at the house anymore. To now wherever we decided to throw down.


Before i went to CU i had heard of Cake. But never really given them a second thought. Then i heard the man who would become one of my best friends playing the bassline of this song on the tuba (music major) in his practice room.


Cool. yeah.. i listen to this song a lot.. lol
