have a great thanksgiving

I am going to be AFK for about a week to go home and see my family for Thanksgiving. Here are seven of some of my favorite songs (and why) to tide you over. Have a great Thanksgiving!

   The Commercials – I Wish I Knew.mp3

Favorite song : 11th grade
The title of this song is wrong (the real title is an acronym). But the file has been wrongly named since I got it and I can’t remember the real name. Either way this band is from central, PA and I saw them live countless times. This was one of their strongest tunes.

   The Smiths – Girlfriend In A Coma.mp3

Favorite song : driving around with band
We listened to this song over and over while driving around (to a show / from a show / to wherever). The point was we didn’t really care where we were going and we listened to this song as many times as possible; we eventually covered it pretty well (I thought).

   The Cardigans – My Favorite Game.mp3

Favorite song : skateboarding / snowboarding
The Cardigans are one of my all time favorite bands. This song in particular has been a favorite of mine to put on snowboarding mixes.

   Bright Eyes – Lover I Dont Have to Love.mp3

Favorite song : angsty teen
This song’s depressing realism is perfect for the angst filled teen years.

   Mi & l’au – Belly.mp3

Favorite song : morning wake up
As I am sure my freshman-year roommate can attest to this, I listened to this song nearly every morning that year. The song still relaxes me beyond any other.

   Mirah – Recommendation.mp3

Favorite song : under 1.5 mins
At one minute twenty seconds length, who doesn’t enjoy this lyrical pop masterpiece. Mirah makes me smile.

   The Stratford 4 – Where The Ocean Meets The Eye.mp3

Favorite song : summer
I know, I know, it is (almost) winter. This song is too good to not include it in this favorites list. I made a summer mix a few years back and it is really good and this was one of the key songs.

I hope you enjoy these. Stay safe and have a great Thanksgiving.
