What I mean by "Songs that mean something to me" is that everyone has something in life that comforts them, something that reminds the of good times, bad times, people, and places that u have been. My comfort happens to be music. I have loved music since I was a little girl. And if u read tids bits about me..u realize that I have about 400 cds. I oringally was gonna do this in my journal. But while recording this tape, I thought why not share this with everyone. I often don't show much emotion and all my friends probably just think I am a really KRAZY person, who can't be serious..when in actuallity I am a very serious person. I goof around a lot Yes, but u just don't see the other side of me. The side I rarely let people see unless they see me in a total break down. But if u could see my journal u would truly know that side...and by doing this I want everyone to see this side of me..to me this sounds kinda stupied, the whole thought of doing this for everyone to see, because I can be a very private person. But by doing this I am opening myself up for all to see. Hope u enjoy!!
SIDE A
Song 1: Elsewhere- Sarah McLachlan
Sarah McLachlan is my all time favorite singer/songwriter. And just about everyone I know..knows this. How can they not I play her 24 hours a day. *LOL* The reason why this song is first is because this song is me. About who I am and what I believe. And I believe that this is Heaven to no one else BUT ME. I can't be happier about were I am in my life at this very moment. Surrounded by a wonderful family and lots of wonderful friends. And a handsome son whom I love dearly. To me that is heaven. I love you guys so much, and without your love and support I would be nothing.
Song 2: Change- Candlebox
This song has a lot of great memories for me..a lot. This is Me, Staceys, and Angelas song. The trio as I put it on my pages. These two clowns are wonderful. And everytime I hear this song..I picture the 3 of us, smiling, laughing, and crying. We are all still freinds, but we haven't been together as the trio in a while. I miss it, but they will always be in my heart and mind..and I carry always this tune in my head when I think of them. I love you two. *HUGS*
Song 3: Cold Contagious- Bush
This song is actually a very long story. Lets say I was being very stupied one night..over did it on Vivran and beer..I spent two nights wide awake listening to this song on my head phones..laying on the living room floor of the OBI dorm..watching tv..wishing I could just fall asleep for just a few seconds. I did a lot of thinking those two nights..and everytime I hear that song it reminds me not to be so stupied..*LOL* But I love that song anyway.
Song 4: Rhiannon- Fleetwood Mac
I cry just about everytime I hear this song. For it was Jamie Jaynes favorite. And I heard it a million times when he was around. Jamie Jaynes passed away On Oct 20th, 1999. Jamie, was a really great friend to me, I miss him so much. Him coming over and just having to show me a new martial arts move. Drinking slammers with him, having long talks with him, seeing him smile, and him telling me life gets better just wait and see. Well Jamie life does get better just wish u were here to enjoy it with me. Thanks for being there for me when I was in pain. That day when u came into my room and held me while I cried. I just don't think u realized how much that moment ment to me. Wish I could've taken away your pain. You will always be in my heart and mind..And I will never forget what u said to me that day in my room. I love you always and forever.
Song 5: Landslide- Fleetwood Mac
This song is just a really great song. Also another song that Jamie liked. But when I hear this song..it reminds me of Oct 22, 1999. The day we buried Jamie. The night before at the final veiwing..a group of us..about 15 or so..waited until the 15 minutes of the viewing and we held hands and walked up to jamie. WE said a group prayer, had a huge group hug, for what seems like 10 minutes, and then took turns saying our goodbyes..that next night we all got together. And had margaritas in Jamies honor..his favorite drink. We all sang this song.
Song 6: Zombie- The Cranberries
This song was Jamie Bickfords favorite song. A boy I had a crush on through most of my high school years. He died in a car accident on April 14, 1996. Everytime I hear it I think of the time I got the guts to write him a love letter. And all the times I staired at him at the lunch tables. He too was a really great friend whom I miss and think about very often. He will alway be my first crush..I also had a crush on him in grade school.. *LOL* WoW...I just remembered that..kicking him in grade school to get his attention..(hehe)
Song 7: Gangsta's Paradise- Coolio
Yes I know..*LOL* But this song..means so much to me. On our way up to New York City and back..Me, Heather, Kristi, and Angela sang this song. The last song I ever sang with Heather Burkey who died on October 8, 1995 in a car accident. This was also a song that we used in our silly commerical made by Me, Heather, Kristi, and Angela. She died like two weeks after that trip. Heather was great..not only did we have just about every class together, but I loved seeing her smile everyday..it always brightened up my days. She was always smiling. And that is what I will always remember about her.
Song 8: One Sweet Day
We played this song for Heather at the end of Graduation. The 3d saddest day of my life. Not only were we paying tribute to a freind, but we were saying goodbye and growing up. I still talk to a lot of the people I graduated with, but don't get see them often. And everytime I hear this song I think of them. I miss everyone.
A little Note:
My senior year was hell, we lost two really great people in one year. But we also had some really great times that year. Like our trip to florida. I know it isn't often that a person loses so many friends in the span of 3 years.. but because of it I have grown in so many ways. Like not to take things for granted.
Song 9: Ready or Not- Fugees
This song I listened the Summer of 97 while home from college. I use to turn on my blinking lights in my room and write by candle light to all my freinds from school. And that is what I think about..all the writing I did while listening to this song.
Song 10: Say...if you feel alright- Crystal waters
I played this song over and over and over..I loved it. *LOL* And probably annoyed the hell out of my roomates. I also used this song..in a little video production I did for college. It was so much fun doing that video. And the class loved it along with the teacher.
SIDE B
Song 1: Heidi- Ruby
This is actually kinda rude, but it is true..my roomate barb m..use to be a really great friend of mine until she keep on stabbing me in the back and trying to turn people against me...sorry to say that it did not work..but I would put this song on and sing it to her and she would get pissed at me. I know most of u have not heard this song and it is not very long so I am gonna put the words down!!
You'd put me in the ground,
Your crime is always against me,
Do you fear what I could be?
I'm bigger than you'll ever be
You'd put me in the ground.
Can't throw me away.
I am what I must, would you bite me till I'm dust.
You're terrified. You're terrified of me.
Question- Why would you kill me?
Answer- Cos I'd cut down your king tree.
Question- Why do I frighten you?
Answer- Cos I'd cut down your king tree.
Told u it is a little messed up, but it is totally true..and that is how I felt when I was around here.
Song 2: Stand By Me
I laugh everytime I hear this song..Me and Kristina..when we were about 10 or so...really can't remember the age. We got all dressed up and put a show on for my mom and dad..we sang this song to them..our outfits were really funny..And I will never ever forget that night...
Song 3: Ice by Sarah McLachlan
I just love this song...it is my second favorit song by her...I love all her songs but If I had to put them in order then this would be second on my list!! Sarah Rocks!!
Song 4: Champagne Supernova- Oasis
This song...I just love it. Takes me back to my senior prom...At the post prom...We were outside the community center...me, jason and a bunch of friends..laying there..singing this song. It was a great night..and lots of fun.
Song 5: Barbie Girl- Aqua
This was actually a very funny nite in my life..what I can remember of it anyway. It was Holloween night in 97..The party was at jamie Jaynes apartment!! I was so drunk..and ended up trying to strip to this song. I don't remember the the whole thing..but I remember I couldn't get my gee off..*LOL* Everyone still brings that night up..I was also hanging on Jaimes martial arts dummy saying that it was my buddy..I will never forget that funny night!!
Song 6: Fire, Water, Burn- Blood hound Gang
We way over played this song at every party. And when I hear it I think of every single party and krazy night we had at the dorms...Our living soap opera!! There was always some big drama going on in that place. But that is what made my college life so fun!!
Song 7: What I got- Sublime
In the break room at OBI..we use to play this song very loud...so loud sometimes u could here it in the library..we would play pool when I wasn't standing on the table...*LOL* being silly..as usual!! OBI just loved me!! Hey someone had to do it!! They didn't know what they got themselves into when accepting us!!
Song 8: That's what I think- Cyndi Lauper
When I fist bought that tape I played this song to death..totally ruined the tape..from listening to it so much. *LOL* And I probably drove my parents Krazy playing it all the time. But I like the song a lot..
Song 9: Heaven is a place on Earth-- Belinda Carlisle
Before I had a tape player I just had a radio and I use to listen to it all the time..and would hope that this song would come on. I love it and probably always will. I still listen to it and sing it..did it Karoke once..to..
Song 10: The sign- Ace of Base
When road trippin with my friends in high school we use to sing this song..I thought we sounded really good actually...so everytime I hear it..I see all of us singing...Miss you guys...*HUGS*
Song 11: I will remember you- Sarah McLachlan
Yes, but another song by Sarah!! What can I say....Infact I am listening to her at this very moment..so go figure..Anyways...
" I'm so tired but I can't sleep..standin' on the edge of something much too deep. It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word. We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard, but I will remember you, will u remember me?"
I thought that was a good way to end this page!! I have so many songs that I love for reasons..wish I could share every single one of them with you!!
Be safe, have fun, and live life to the fullest!!
Love & light,
KrazyTiny
