Weekly Top 10: Best Songs of the 90s


LT5 Indie Profile: Aylin Eser


Top 10 Bands to Watch In 2013


Weekly Top 5: Fuck You Songs


Flux Top 10: Songs to strip to


Another fantastic week comes to a end, and what better way to close it out then to post a killer Top 10 list! A awesome twitter friend gave me the idea for this list and I think it's going to be a fantastic list. Something everyone needs. Now again, this is a list geared more towards the hard rock/metal crowd, so don't go expecting too many pop style songs in this list. That's not how I do. Haha

Remember, it's not about the lyrics, or the video  it's about the over all sound and feel of the song. That's what makes a song a great stripping tune. If you're looking to seduce, get freaky or just have fun with your mate, here is a list of 10 songs to get sexy and do a striptease to. Sit back, enjoy and just feel it all.




10. Halestorm - Familiar Taste of Poison

This song was given to me for the list, and I agree. It has a a solid slow beat that screams sexiness and the vocals match it perfectly. Definitely a great song for setting the mood. Oh yeah.




9. CKY - Rio Bravo

Another suggestion for the list. A fantastic dark, sexy song to get naked to. I agree with this choice. Solid drum line and a catchy guitar riff. Crank it up and let your freak flag fly!



8. Killswitch Engage - The End of Heartache

As we start moving into the faster tempo songs, we arrive at The End of Heartache. Let's not deny here, Howard Jones has one hell of a sexy voice. I mean damn. The overall feel of the song is sultry and sexy yet hard and aggressive. Yes, it works well.



7. The White Stripes - Seven Nation Army 

So besides the fact that this song's video trips me the hell out every time I watch it, (seriously, I think I had a seizure while writing this) That bass line alone screams awesome striptease music. no lies.



6. Stone Temple Pilots - Plush

Just try to listen to this song without doing a slow headbang. That's how easy it is to move to this song! I'm telling you this is a must have!!! Can't help but sing along to it though. That might or might not ruin the mood. All depends on the guy/girl you're with I guess.



5. Flyleaf - Fully Alive

This has the perfect bad girl striptease sound. Very much so, oh yes. Great tune. Does a fantastic job of slowing down, and speeding up. Works so well for this list.



4. Finger Eleven - First Time

One amazing song that I have loved for many years now. I feel this song fits into this category well. it's got a nice slow grind feel to it with nice places where it picks up. Yes, I can totally see it now. Booya.



3. City and Colour - Comin' Home

One of those slow jams that when you're doing a very sexy, seducing slow tease you wanna rock to. Just perfect for that love in your life. Also a killer band, not gonna lie about that.



2. Nine Inch Nails - Starsuckers Inc.

First off, yes, I know the actual title of the song, but since the video above is titled 'Suckers" I might as well stick with it. Originally I was going to put Closer as this number in the list, but, since I had added that in my list of songs to get busy to, I decided to be a little bit more original. This works anyways. Hard fast dance. YEAH!



1. American Head Charge - Just So You Know

One of my all time favorite songs. I'm choosing this one mainly because I love the song and it's got an aggressiveness that isn't in many songs on this list. It's perfect for the top of the list all!


Hope you enjoyed it, don't forget to check out the other lists I've done and look around, enjoy your self. I'll see you all again next week. Don't forget to check back daily for the song of the day!

Happy hunting!

Flux top 10: F*** You Songs Part 2

I enjoyed making the first part of this list (here) and decided to go back and continue it on! There are so many great songs that do nothing better then say hey, "F*** you buddy." I mean, come on. When you're down and in the gutter, or just had a huge fight, or well, just feel like it, there are songs like these to help you out. Enjoy folks!



10 American head Charge - 'Leave Me Alone'

We got the angry screaming, hard hitting grind and the hate filled lyrics. yes, why don't you leave me alone? Know what I mean? Oh yes. Welcome to the Top 10!!! Haha



9. Eminem - 'Puke'

Debate-ably the worst album he made, (personally I loved it, but I am easily amused.) This is a beautiful story about the true feelings for someone special in your life. Those deep down feelings that you only feel now and then. You know, when you feel like puking? Sure. 



8. Toby Keith - `How Do You Like Me Now'

All right, I might need to explain this one. I mean, first off, it's country. I'm not overly known for being a country lover, but between you, me and the internets, I got a love for Toby Keith, Garth Brooks and Shania. Not gonna lie. Anyways, this is a great PG rated song that expresses the same sentiments as the list, just in a nice "Boom, in your face!" kinda way.


7. Snot - 'My Balls'

In case you're actually curious as to everything he's saying beyond the simplistic epicness that is the chorus, here is the link to the lyrics. Makes me chuckle to say the least. I feel this fits in the list. Besides, as I've said many times, it's my blog. You can't stop me! MUAHAHAA



6. Pantera - 'Walk'

Quite possible the ultimate song. I mean really. You can not go wrong with some good old Pantera. Sit back and enjoy.



5. Mudvayne - 'Dull Boy'

Just has a nice feel of F*** You to it. It's also a pretty addictive song if you follow my style. I hate being a dull boy. That sucks.



4. Metallica - Seek and Destroy

Going back. All the way back with this one. back when this was heavy metal and devil worshiping and hatred and evil!! \m/ Feel the rage!!!



3. In This Moment - 'You're Gonna' Listen'

Such a great song when you're in this mood. Fall into it and become the hatred for a while. Then go and buy a smoothie or a FroYo. FroYo always makes things better.



2. Ill Niño - 'Te Amo...I Hate You'

I'm pretty sure the title says it all. That mad confusion when you love and hate someone. When They F*** you up so much and you don't know what to do. Yeah. 'Scuse me, I need a Froyo...



1. Machine head - 'Five'

This is quite possibly the most depressing yet angry song ever written. Ever sang, ever spit, ever felt. Seriously, it gives me shivers and it's been so many years since I first heard it. Such emotion. Such feeling.



All done! I hope you enjoyed the list, if you did, don't forget to subscribe, pass it on, post it on twitter or facebook. If you have a spare dollar or two, there is a donate button up top. Every cent goes into making this a bigger and better blog with big plans coming up soon. It will always remain free but anything you can help out with would be greatly appreciated.

Flux Top 10: Bringing it back Part 2!



Decided I wanted to keep going with the old school songs from the last Top 10: Bringing it back. Oh yes. If you remember these songs, come relive the memories! If you don't know these songs, you best learn them. Fast. 

I will be rocking this one out quickly as it is Thanksgiving weekend up here in Canada and I gotta get things ready! (That or I'm just feeling really lazy today. Shhh.) Either way, thanks for checking out, don't forget to check out all the other blogs using the links on the left. 

Take care and enjoy!!


10. Real McCoy - Another Night

Now this is the epic of epicness. HELL YES!!! Junior High dances all the way. Seriously. This rocks. Heh.



9. Culture Beat - Mr. Vain

I'm just gonna shut up and watch this. 'Cause I'm mr. vain. And all that. 
'Nuff said.


8. Puff Daddy Feat. Faith Evans & 112 - I'll be Missing You

Everyone knows this one. every pours a drink out for Biggie Smalls. I mean, Puffy isn't the best rapper, but it's a good song. Heartfelt and so on. I dig it.


7. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

Do I even need to get into this one and why it is so amazing? No? Didn't think so. Unfortunately, Weird Al's version still gets stuck in my head while I listen to this sometimes. But that's ok.


6. Guns N' Roses - Sweet Child Of Mine

This song hit me at the last second and dammit, it fits in here. This song used to get played all the time at the bars I would attend and it's catchy. \m/  \m/




5. Aerosmith - I Don't Want to Miss a Thing

The ultimate in slow jams, getting close to the girl and going 'Oh yeah!'. Ha ha. I loved this movie. Song was catchy too. the chicks used to dig it. Good enough for me!!




4. The Presidents of the United States of America - Peaches

Sing along and jam out. Then dodge the ninjas on the lawn. Damn ninjas. Always wrecking the flow.


3. Sugar Ray - Fly

back in the day when Mark Magrath was the man. Pretty awesome video though. I still enjoy the song, but as one person on Youtube commented 'This song would never make it today. It doesn't feature Pitbull, doesn't have Autotune, and there wasn't a dubstep remix upon release.' So sad that it's true.

2. Chumbawamba - Tubthumping

I was watching Tosh.0 yesterday and he made a reference to this song. Which, in turn got it stuck in my head and I had to listen to it. Damn song. Well, at least it's not nearly as bad the number 1 song.... *Shudder*


1. Aqua - Barbie Girl

Literally, the only reason I did this as number was to get it stuck in your head and make you scream how much you hate me. Even if you didn't watch the video. The moment you saw the title, you started singing it in you head, and I don't feel sorry for it all.



So there is our throw back people, I hope you loved, or hated it. Either way share it to everyone you know!

Flux Top 10: Chitty's Ultimate Festival


Usually, my top 10's revolve around more mainstream bands and music that everyone has at least heard of. I figured, hey it's about time to give all those amazing bands that I talk about on Friday a lil top 10 love! So, I have compiled a list of my Top 10 songs from bands you might have heard of and songs that I rock out to now from epic bands. Oh yes, this is going to be epic.

I know, some of you are going to say, 'Hey these are all bands you've talked about before.' to that I say, you are damn right. I am going to keep talking about these bands until the world knows of their epicness I can be a hipster and say, 'Oh them? Yeah, I liked them way before they became popular.' I can't wait for that.

So, this my layout for the 10 bands I want to play a festival together. Bringing together all my facorite sounds into one place. Sure, I'll say it's for the fans and what not, but really it's because I want to see them all play in one or two nights. Maybe I'll do up a Kickstarter for the funds to get it happening! What you think? Haha Enjoy the list and share it all over! I want this one to be the biggest blog posting I got, which means beating out Top 10: F**k You Songs




10. Digital Summer - 'Forget You'

This song, which was published on Set 10th, 2012 has already gotten almost 400,000 views. And for great reason. The song kicks effin' ass! This band is continuing to pump out amazing track after track and it won't be long until they're off and running past the big bands out there. I called it first dammit. (originally posted about them here)





9. Prosevere - 'New Number 2'


Oh yes. from the Bands You Need To Hear part 2 I bring you, Prosevere. Still rocking this song hard. The lead singer has those crazy eyes man. He's thinking bad thoughts... It's awesome! Craving more from them, and as soon as I get more, you guys will hear about it too.



8. Walkways - 'Towards The Light'

These guys have not been featured on a Top 5 yet, but I promise they will be. I just recently heard this song, and I can't get enough of it. Such a tight sound and great mixing added. Makes me get all RAAAHHH and stuff. Totally digging it. Coming straight from Israel keep your eye on these guys.



7. Neverwake - 'Widowmaker'

naturally gotta give my boys in Neverwake a spot in the festival. They will rock it hard. I have no doubt. Check out the Profile I did on them (Here) and you will see they are cool ass guys who are ready for it. bring the noise guys. Bring the noise.



6. The Fallen Drakes - 'Masquerade'

Coming straight from Ireland is The Fallen Drakes. Originally posted them here. They are primed for a spot in the Ultimate festival. (Gee, Ireland, Israel, USA, this is like a world wide festival. Hell yes.) They have gotten some awesome accolades in the UK, it's time to bring it to North America and get some killer tunes from them here!



5. Darling Parade - 'Never Wrong'

To keep with the alt/rock feel from The Fallen Drakes, we gotta put in Darling parade. (Here) Great fit to close in the genre in this festival and bring awesome music to everyone around the world. Must have.



4. Negative pH - 'WH'

I literally just posted about them yesterday (here) but this music is made for a festival of amazing bands and music. I can just picture now, 25,000 fans in an open festival in a field some where close to my home (heh) and this song just pumping through the air. Would be so damn epic!!



3. Man on Earth - Venus

Come on, if this band isn't designed to play a festival none are. These guys are epic and fun. the most active social media band of all time and such an amazing loyal fan base it's crazy. These guys will bring the fans and the fun. Done. First posted here



2. Stitched Up Heart - 'Is this the Way You Get to Hell?'

First posted about this fantastic group here, and the love for this band grows more everyday. I spend so much time listening to this band it's crazy! Love the sound, the lyrics, the looks this band has it all and needs to be in this festival.



1. 3 Pill Morning - 'Skin'

Yup. These guys gotta be in too. No doubt about that. high energy, catchy lyrics, amazing riffs. Festival written all over it. 'Nuff said. Well, maybe not, I can say more, but I wont. I'd just keep ranting on and on and on... and on..


One again, thank you so much for checking out the list. I hope you enjoyed it and shared it with at least one person. I got to admit, this was one of the hardest Top 10 lists I've done. I have been introduced to so many amazing bands and I would love to see them in a festival. I may actually make this a running list, there's at least 25 other bands I wanted to include on this one and just couldn't squeeze them in. It's crazy. Anyways, hit me up on twitter, leave a comment, email me if you have any questions, comments or suggestions for future lists.

Flux Top 10: Bringing it back


I decided last minute to bring back a ton of songs from back in the day that you either loved, or hated, or hated to love. All those great songs that'll get stuck in your head and make you wish you had an ice pick to dig out your ear drums and curse my name until the end of days. OH YEAH!

Enjoy!


10. The Bloodhound Gang - The bad Touch

Everyone loved this song. It's funny, it's perverted and they jump around in monkey suits. Come on! This was an epic time in life. Remember, smile and laugh. Song along too. You remember the words.


9. Wheatus - Teenage Dirtbag

The hit song for all those guys who had a girl way out of his league and she wouldn't get with him. Well, really, you were chubby, smelled bad, didn't ahve a car, who can blame her?! What? That was only me? You never went through that? Shit...


8. No Doubt - Just a Girl

No one can deny this song.  It is a classic. Not to mention no one can deny the fact that Gwen looks EXACTLY the same now as she did in 1996... Now that proves to me that she sleeps in a giant tupperware container. Just saying...


7. Alanis Morsette - Ironic

Yes, the battle still rages on if this song is really ironic or just coincidental, but really it doesn't matter. It's a catchy tune. So shut up, sit back and watch. Damn haters.


6. Oasis - Wonderwall

Not ONLY a great song, not ONLY a classic that everyone knows, but has to be one of the top 5 best karaoke songs OF ALL TIME. 'Nuff said. ChittyB out.


5. The verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony

One of the first songs I really remember getting totally overplayed on the radio. It's a great tune, but gets stuck in your head so damn fast it's crazy. Also, I used to get The Verve and The Verve Pipe confused all the time. That sucked.


4. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication

They had a ton of catchy tunes back in the day, I just dig the video game-esque feel of this video. Nerd for life ya know? Great tune, catchy, yup fits the list.


3. Prodigy - Breathe

Oh yes, this song kicks ass and needs to be on this list. On a personal note, this song taught me the word psychosomatic. I asked my mom what it meant. Never forgot that. See? Music teaches me smart like.


2. Crazytown - Butterfly

The reason why so many people went out and got two star tattoos done. The reason why so much happened the reason why this gets stuck in my head so much, I'll never know. Damn song...


1. Hampton the Hampster - The Hampster Dance

I'm not even going to say anything about this one. Just gonna let it sit in your head and fester like a sore. SUCKERS!!


Thanks again for tuning in, I hope you enjoyed the list as much as I did. Come back next week for more great lists and have a great week!

Flux Top 10: Songs you wouldn't expect I like



Time to dive into the odd strange mind that is Chitty. Usually I`m a metal head, hard rocker etc, but these 10 songs are songs that I never really admit to liking but I dig. A lot. So bare with me, don't laugh too much and enjoy!


10. Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me

I think I really started digging this song after hearing the Collegehumor.com parody song called 'Hover Hands' at least that's my excuse. Either way, it's a catchy tune and I refuse to admit that out loud. Well, minus here.


9. Lady Gaga feat. Beyoncé - Telephone

I really don't understand this one. Your guess is as good as mine, but it's addictive. Shut up. Leave me alone. Don't judge me.


8. Flo Rida - Whistle

Seriously do not understand this one. I mean, the undertone of the song makers me chuckle. Ok, really makes me chuckle. But half the time I can't stand the song, and still find myself singing along. BASTARDS! Ah, ok I feel better.


7. Nicki Minaj - Starships

So, while filming this I realized I HATE the Nicki Minaj version of this song. Maybe it's just the video, but I hate it. This version seen above, I can't get enough of it's awesome and fun. So yeah. There we have it.


6. Train - 50 Ways to Say Goodbye

It could just be Mr. Hasselhoff in the video but I find this song epic. Well played. not that I'll ever admit to it...
I also got a soft spot for a mariachi band. #justsaying


5. Culture Beat - Mr. Vain

OK, not that I`m actually ashamed of this song or the dance music of the 90`s. Actually I still love these tunes and rock them all the time. It might surprise you though, that I still dance around when no ones around. MUHAHA!


4. Robyn - Crash and Burn Girl

Again, I'm not ashamed that I love this artist, shes epic and puts out some catchy stuff. It's just the type of tune I skip when I'm crusin' down the road blasting my tunes. I get funny looks going from Machine Head to Robyn... Yea...


3. Nelly Furtado - Maneater

Ugh... maybe it's just the video I like, you know kinda sexy and stuff but I do enjoy this tune. Shut up. Moving on.

NO WAIT! I like it because she's Canadian! Yeah! That's it!


2. Usher Feat. Ludicris & Lil' Jon - Yeah

Brings me back to the days of Playing tunes in the bar. All the girlies love this song. OH YEAH! ...And it's catchy as hell and gets stuck in my head. Haha


1. Nickelback - How You Remind Me

I justified this by saying I loved it before it got completely overplayed and ruined everything. All these years later I can still listen to it and enjoy it. BUT NEVER IN PUBLIC or around anyone!!


So there is my embarrassing list. Hope you all enjoyed my misery. What songs do you love and wont tell anyone? Hit me up on email, twitter, facebook and stay, check out the other lists and stuffs I got kicking around! Oh yea, check out my sponsors and advertisers on the side. they got some epic stuffs!

Flux Top 10: Songs that matter to me Pt. 2



So, I'm continuing on the list I started last week(Click here) and although I had one plan in mind, I changed it at the last moment to this version. Basically, I decided to go over the top 10 songs that have always mattered to me, and will always have a special place in my heart. Dated songs? Yes. Amazingly epic awesome songs? Hell yes.

Now, on a separate yet related note, it was mentioned to me in a not so subtle way that I should keep the format I have going on with Friday Top 5 (Click here) and include videos with the list and who am I to disagree with what people want.

If you just wanna skip the rambling I do here and just wanna see the videos, I have set up a playlist on my new Youtube channel (Which, dammit, go and subscribe now!) so click here is you want to just go there.
With all that plugging, here we go!


10. Korn Feat. Limp Bizkit - 'All in the Family'

Like it or hate it, this was the killer song my friends and I rocked this song before hitting up the bar. Hell my friend Cindy and I had this shit memorized with each of us having our own parts. (I got Fred Durst.. mainly cause Cindy wanted to bone Mr. Davis something BAD. Heh) At any rate, this is one of those awesome memory songs that I love to listen to.


9. Machine Head - 'From This Day' 

This was part of my metal induction. I saw this video way back in the day on Much Music's new music program and I fell in freakin' love. Seriously got me hooked. I got the album the next day and loved every song. thus creating a Machine Head fan boy for life. Then, I heard the live version from the 'Hellalive' CD and the quality of the recording alone blew me away. Completely gave me goosebumps. Yup. I really need to see them live. #Bucketlist


8. Disturbed - 'Voices'

Also saw this video on Much Music's new music program (I loved that show) and from the beginning of the song I was engrossed in Disturbed. I got to see them live way back in the day when they were touring Canada with Kittie and that was such an amazing concert that had some great moments that I will always remember. Also, on a side note, I want that shirt David is wearing in the video. I don't care how old this video is, that dudes got style. Just sayin'.


7. Spineshank - 'Beginning of the End'

Spineshank honestly introduced me to my beautiful lady. She had a dude, I had a lady, but the music was a great opening conversation in a small town. Now this song is one she told me she loved. So, being the kick ass DJ I'd throw it on for her every weekend she came in and got flack form all the Country music lovers there. Oh well, I was playing a killer song for a hot friend. Never had a shot back then, but several years later I gots her. Muhahaha music rules.




6. Sevendust - Waffle

Ok, I originally had one song here but then it was pointed out I doubled up from last week so I changed it to another amazing song that I love. Great song with deep lyrics that touch me. Now, listen and love or I will start singing the Barney 'I love you' Song. Really loud.


5. Slipknot - 'Spit it Out'

We got us a double song here! Not only did it enter my party songs on the way to bar singing it while walking (No drinking and driving back then!) but a great song to get all angry and hateful. Been there before, oooh yea. Such fun in so many ways. I will always love this song. Side note, the video is creepy awesome.


4. A Perfect Circle - '3 Libra's'

This just a deeply personal song to me. I don't know really how to explain it, but it strikes a cord deep inside and this song resonates there. Something in the lyrics, and sounds that hypnotize me. If you don't know the song, just listen. Don't do anything, just listen. :)


3. Stone Sour - 'Through Glass'

'OH MY GOD! Corey Taylor on the list again? Really Chitty??' I'm sure that's what you're saying right now, but yes. I am. My personal songs and this one hits me right there man, right in the heart type place. *sniff* Just one of those songs. We've all been there. We've all lived there. Just embrace it and let the music flow.


2. The Verve Pipe - 'Freshman'

Time to get serious here for one moment. Originally, I loved this song. it had a great sound, touching lyrics and it was awesome. but, one night way back in 2000 I was listening to it while I was at work when I got a call from my girlfriend at the time. She let me know that a really great friend of ours was struck and killed by a drunk driver not an hour earlier. Since that moment, this song reminds me of my friend. Always will. So this song needed to be on this list. RIP, you're never far from my thoughts.


1. Roadrunner United - 'Army of the Sun'

Back to the fun side of the list, the number one song I have had as a number one before. (Most romantic metal songs)  Also, beyond all that, the song is just freakin' epic!!!!!!


All done for another week, don't forget to sub up, follow me on twitter, facebook, youtube, umm.. uhhh email. Send presents. I like gifts. I hope you have an awesome long weekend and let me know what you thought of the list. Do you prefer the addition of videos? Is it distracting? I know I don't mind it. Well, except it means I gotta do more work. Oh yea! Don't forget to check out some of my sponsors on the side --->
They got some kick ass deals and download the free iTunes song of the week too!

Happy Hunting!

Flux Top 10: Songs that matter to me


This weeks Top 10 is going to hit a little closer to home. My Top 10 songs. personal, Top 10. Well, ok, i can do way more then 10 but this is a good start anyways. As usual, I'm going to give you all the information in as little time as possible, and I hope you enjoy. Don't forget to check out last weeks list Top 10 Pre-Party Songs


10. Dope - 'Sing' (Group Therapy Album)

Starting off the list is thins fantastic song by Dope. It has a beautiful feel and message to it. Sometimes, you gotta just sing. For whatever reason, sing just to let it all go. I can relate to this. Also helps cheer me up when I get down some.


9. Fair To Midland - 'Amarillo Sleeps on my Pillow' (Arrows & Anchors Album)

Fair To Midland is a band that blows me away. Every aspect of this band is amazing. The range of the vocals are ridiculous. this was the first released song from Arrows & Anchors and they teased it out early. I listened, I heard and I fell in love. Didn't even breath until the song ended. Love it.


8. Black Eyed Peas Feat. Papa Roach - 'Anxiety' (Elephunk Album) 

One of those songs I came across back in the day during my teenage angst days where I needed something to help pull me through and this song had a little something in it that reminded me what it means to fight. Why you should never back down.


 7. All That Remains - 'Faithless' (For We Are Many Album)

If you don't like this song, then you hate music. There. I said it. Booya. Just listen and feel the lyrics, it's one of those songs that resonates through your bones. Such an awesome song.


6. Times of Grace - 'Forgotten One' (The Hymn of a Broken Man Album)

OK, the opening riff I love, I mean, it sounds amazing and kinda reminds me of the opening to Firefly TV series, which, I absolutely love. then you get into the song and magically you are transformed into it. If you cannot relate to this song, or have a moment in your life where it's true, then I'm fairly sure you are an alien. Or a robot.


5. Demon Hunter - 'One Thousand Apologies' (The Triptych Album)

Another one like 'Forgotten One'. This song just reminds me of so many times in my life. Thinking back, I'm positive it's songs like this that helped em through my most difficult days. Must have song, by a must have band.


4. Taproot - 'Poem' (Welcome Album)

If you heard this song, you either love it, or you really love it. Taproot is an amazing band who hit a personal note with song. The chorus grabs you, holds you and forces you to remember that you live life for yourself. Sometimes, you just need to write a poem to yourself. For yourself.


3. Bobby Gaylor - 'Suicide'  (Fuzzationic Scream)

At the lowest point on my life this song broke me down. Something about Bobby's way of talking,h is words, his ideas and thoughts hit me like a ton of bricks and my life seemed a little brighter. things made a little more sense. Of course, i'm also a wuss but yea. One of the greatest songs I know.


2. Dust Brothers - 'This is Your Life' (Fight Club Soundtrack)

Around the same time as the last song there was this one. Given, it's really only taking quotes from the movie, but the messages of that movie, short of when Tyler goes a little too far, holds true. You can't let the things you own in life, own you. You are not the things you own, you are not your wallet, you are not you effin khakis.


1. Tool - 'Parabola' (Lateralus Album)

The number one spot, goes to the number one song. So much has happened around this song, so many memories good and bad. This one is shared by my long time friend Cindy. This is her song. her struggles and her will to move on, to succeed and to stay positive. Greatest song by the greatest band.



So there we have it. A beautiful list. I like this one. Anyways, stay tuned for more great lists and stuff, hopefully a new band profile coming up soon, don't forget to check out my profile on Katie Rox she is doing an amazing fundraiser and there is still time to help out!

Happy hunting,
