I'm not sure how Andrea does this every week!
She picks the most fun topics that I would never even think of!
My man and I sat down for close to an hour picking out songs {because it was just that fun}. So with that, I hope you enjoy these 'blast from the past' songs and they bring some memories back for you!
Show and Tell Tuesday
Soundtrack Of My Life
Childhood
As a child of the nineties, my faves were The Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears and 'N Sync.
I was the typical girl singing with her hairbrush as a microphone to those Hit Clips.
{In case you don't know, hit clips were mini boom boxes with 30 second clip songs that you could put in and play through headphones. You had to collect all of the clips. And I listened to Britney Spears "Stronger" about 2038576 times.}
What were my main jams? Whatever I had on CD's {Now That's What I Call Music CDs, to be exact!} No YouTube, iPods, or anything else but Walkman's back then!
"Call me crazy, but it a'int no lie, baby bye bye bye {bye bye}"
"I never wanna hear you say, I want it that way"
"Oops, I did it again. I made you believe. We're more than just friends. Oh baby"
"Few times I been around that track, so it's not just gonna happen like that"
{I literally learned how to spell the word 'bananas' from this song}
"I'm a Barbie Girl, in a Barbie world"
{Possibly the most annoying song in the world?? Sorry, Mom}
Teenagerhood
I got my first iPod when I was in 7th grade {and I still have it}. It was the purple iPod nano, and I just thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread.
What were my most played songs? Take a look!
"Fergalicious, definition 'make them boys go loco'"
{Yep. I know this one word for word}
"Hey! Hey! You! You! I don't like your girlfriend!"
"G - L - A - M - O - R - O - U - S"
{Yes, I know this one word for word too. Apparently I liked Fergie back then}
"I'm not gonna write you a love song. Cause you asked for it. Cause you need one"
{This was the first song I taught myself on the piano!}
"So, So what, I'm still a rockstar. I got my rock moves. And I don't need you tonight!"
Adulthood
Oh adulting is so bittersweet. But music makes it sweeter, I think. Mostly because a jam session in the morning, while dancing around our home helps get my day started right ;)
"Show me what yo' mama gave"
"Sunday mornin' rain is fallin'. Steal some covers share some skin"
{To be fair, I've been a Maroon 5 fanatic since I came out of the womb}
"Ooooo I had the time of my life"
"Open up the champagne, POP! It's my house, come on turn it up!"
"I want to know what makes your world go round"
{One of my songs with my man. Had to add one in, but I could literally make an entire post on all of our songs!}
I hope y'all enjoyed this post. Maybe you found some new songs, or maybe you found some that you used to love too!
Either way, we had a wonderful time doing this together!
This idea was so fun! I thought it would be hard at first, but I loved coming up with songs! Nsync, BSB and Britney were definitely favorites of mine. As was Fergie!
ReplyDeleteIt was so fun! We had a jam session to each song :) thanks for stopping by!
