365 project:"i dont mean to piss you off with the things i might say"

day 13.

artist:SR71
album:now you see inside

I'm not sure if it is my subconscious trying to tell me something or what, but something keeps dragging me back to albums from the late 90's/very early 00's. those were good times, as I've talked about...the beginning of college, the group of friends that i was hanging out with, the partying like it was 1999-because it was. something happened though, whether it was the change in colleges, the change in friends, the change of the decade, but i just stopped listening to all of those Cd's.

when i was going through my CD binder last night to find stroke 9, i also came across this CD-well, more accurately, i came across the liner notes for this CD. the actual CD took some time to find, as it wasn't in the binder. i sorted through the HUGE stack of homeless Cd's on the top of my rack and near the bottom i found that yellow piece of plastic with the little robot on it. no words or anything, but i knew what it was.

as has been the case with every CD so far, i still knew all the words, yet was still surprised to find that i did. i don't really have an emotional attachment to this album like i did with a lot of the others we have covered so far. i bought it because i liked the single right now and that was that. i don't remember buying it, which is weird for me. my collection is rather absurdly large, but i remember at least something about the acquisition of most of the albums i own. i guess I'm getting old and am starting to forget.

there is a song on this disk called alive that i think that the guys from red jumpsuit apparatus need to listen to. its a song about getting out of a violent, abusive relationship and starting over, and i think its done better than the song from rja-basically, i can stand to listen to it.

mostly, though, this is just a fun, poppy album. the normal topics are discussed-relationships, love, cheating...the same stuff that most of the other albums EVER are written about. there's nothing groundbreaking or earth-shattering within the confines of this album, just a good time.

sadly, ill probably put this one back into the binder and forget about its existence for another 10 years, until something else comes up to remind me that i even own it.
