aye to 1,2,5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13 on yor first list!
good list there! btw, do you listen to Third Eye Blind? they are awesome too
nyx I somehow knew you would comment on this. So happy now leh got no babes in this entry?
lex Danke, danke – yes, I do…in fact “Never Let You Go” made it to my initial top 30.
ahhh coolness… u should check out the other stuff too like New Girl, God of Wine, 10 days late and of course, my fav. sing along tune – Jumper lol
After posting my spice girls post…. and loading your blog, i was greeted by the first picture. Is that Kula Shaker?
Wooh… what made us felt like posting something about songs we listened in the last decade ?
Btw… Offsprings “All I Want” is my fav among their songs.
Nice mix, Dan. The band I was in (Farmers Don’t Do Grass — our notoriety lives on) used to slam on the Offstring titles in a cheap studio… years ago.
We all graduated to bigger and better things… meaning, only one of us actually decided he had talent and the rest got real jobs
lex “Jumper” is alright. Have you heard of REMY ZERO?
endroo g Nope, that’s Verve Pipe, followed by Tonic and a couple of Offspring photos. No idea why I posted this, just felt like it. Thinking of doing top 20 oldies favorite…hmmm
keropok Cheers Keropok. I was in a band too (not officially), played the rhythm and was the lead singer. These songs reminded me of my wonderful college years. I will always be known as the FIRST (and perhaps?) the only guy who comes to college carrying a guitar…
Haha, an Offspring fan here … haha
Eh i missed out on Better Than Ezra also …
