Songs of my childhood

16 March 2015


I've always found it so amazing how music has the ability to take you back in time to a particular moment in your life - to that very moment - when you truly fell in love with a song. So much can happen in a lifetime, and yet those three minutes of a melody can you transform back 
into that young child you once were. It's always lovely to hear songs from the past. So - in no particular order - let's take a trip down memory lane, and rediscover the long lost songs of our youth!

Because You Live - Jesse McCartney
Before Justin Bieber, there was one teen heartthrob who stole the hearts of teenage girls across the globe and that was Jesse McCartney. Who else loved him on Summerland? 

Find A Way - Drake Bell
Who else remembers Drake and Josh? That was the show to watch when I was child. I always loved seeing the boys get into so much trouble, with little evil Megan at every turn.

I want it that way - Backstreet Boys
Gosh, just look at those baggy trousers and long overcoats! Remember how that use to be so cool and hip?! If you haven't been caught guilty singing this in the washing dishes - you have not lived!

Baby One More Time - Britney Spears 
Who knew that a young 16 year old girl who started in the Mickey Mouse club would end up becoming a world-wide superstar? Baby One More Time is a classic 90s anthem, that brings back so many memories! 



Five Colour In Her Hair - McFly
The British boy band that stole the teenage hearts all across the world - and the colour from the world! McFly have come a long way since their early days, but it's always wonderful to see where they first started. Let's all admit it, we wanted to be that girl with five colours in her hair!


Everywhere - Michelle Branch
Back when guitars and singer-song writers dominated the charts, Michelle Branch was the artist at the turn of the century. Her rapsy tone and soothing guitar notes, made some awesome tunes, that are just so classic! I seriously suggest checking her out if you haven't heard of her!

A Thousand Miles - Vanessa Carlton  
This song is everything. Everything. I can still see Terry Crews singing along to this song in White Chicks. That scene takes this song to so many unbelievable levels that I don't even know!
 

I'll be there for you - The Rembrandts 
Where-ever you are in the world, whatever country you live in, this is one song everybody knows. I can still remember coming home after school, running into the living room just in time to watch Friends on E4. It just never gets old!
