Burnt CD Vault Volume #4

Once again I revisit the poorly thought out music of my youth for the entire internet to see. Not that the entire internet reads this. Not that anyone reads this. But every once in awhile (and I mean every once in awhile) I need a creative outlet for myself. So I turn here to my poorly read, rarely thought of blog.

This cd is pretty embarrassing but it will make for a good laugh. It's titled "10" and there is no date but I believe I made in 2001 and if not then it was definitely early 2002 as I know I must have been in grade 11 when this was made. Some of my choices are down right despicable but what can I do now? The cd is already made.

1. Atomic Kitten - "Whole Again"
Umm...? What was I thinking? This song is horrible! I bet Diane Warren is responsible.

2. Shakira - "Underneath Your Clothes"
This may make me the lamest person ever, but I still kinda like this song. Or last some deeply hidden romantic part of me does.

3. Joan Jett - "Bad Reputation"
This song always brings to mind that scene in 10 Things I Hate About You where Julia Stiles' character driving around to it and thinking she's badass. Call the cops!

4. Shannon - "Let the Music Play" (the cd's label also informs me that this song is cut off)
Some weird ass 80s shit that only lasts 1:53. Thank god.

5. Maren Ord - "All I Want"
First of all, who? And all I can say is I must have been nursing a serious crush when I made this cd. Because I used to be lame like that. Sappy crap!

6. Heart - "Crazy on You"
I do like this song still.

7. Dave Matthews Band - "Greystreet"
Apparently at one point I was a big enough DMB fan to download their unreleased shit (I know, SICK). I believe all these unreleased songs would become Busted Stuff which was so bad I didn't even like it when I was a fan of the band and pretty much knew all the songs on it before it was released.

8. Michelle Branch - "Everywhere"
What next? I'm seriously ODing on all the girlie on this cd.

9. Staind - "For You"
...STAIND?! EWWWWW

10. Tori Amos - "Landslide"
Boring cover of an already overly covered song.

11. Puddle of Mudd- "Blurry"
Jesus Christt

12. Fleetwood Mac - "Rhiannon"
Random but better than most of the other shit on this cd. And I don't even really like Fleetwood Mac.

13. System of a Down - "Chop Suey"
Honestly, System of a Down has held up better for me than I would have expected they would.

14. The Clash - "Should I Stay or Should I Go"
Very pedestrian choice there, Vanessa.

15. The Calling - "Wherever You Will Go"
Whyyy? Yup I was totally madly in love with some dude when I made this cd. I had to be. My judgement was totally clouded.

16. Air- "Sexy Boy"
I completely forgot about this song. I still quite enjoy this one. It's certainly better than Puddle of Mudd.

17. The Specials - "A Message to You Rudy"
I sure hope Rudy listened and thought of his future. The Specials liked cautionary tales.

18. Y Kant Tori Read (Tori Amos) - "Pirates"
Some ridiculous 80s shit Tori Amos released before she was famous that I somehow convinced myself was good. I remember I wanted to find this album so badly as it's highly coveted by Toriphiles since it has been out of print for a million years (with good reason). I have it all downloaded and burnt on cd though. Because you know, the music was so worth owning.
I'm kinda glad I don't really like Tori Amos that much anymore...

Well, that's it folks. Till the next time I get bored and inspired to write something useless...
