As part of my ongoing celebration for my 30th birthday, I am highlighting some popular songs from throughout my years. Songs were picked based off of a list of Grammy award winners and Billboard Top 100. Then, I chose my favorites to highlight.
Year: 1999
Book: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling
Music Selections: Overall this year was really electic when it came to music. I went to see Korn and Rob Zombie in concert, but I also listened to stuff like Sarah McLachlan. I was all over the place musically!
- Dixie Chicks "Ready to Run" -- Most country I don't like, but for some reason I really got into the Dixie Chicks. I still listen to them every once in a while.
- Lenny Kravitz "American Woman" -- I can't help but see Heather Graham as Felicity Shagwell writhing around on a car for Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. Hee hee!
- Sarah McLachlan "I Will Remember You" -- Such a great song. I can't help but remember listening to this all the time.
- Santana and Rob Thomas "Smooth" -- Big hit of the summer. The perfect summer song to sing along to.
- The Offspring "The Kids aren't Alright" -- Love The Offspring. Smash was one permanent rotation in my car throughout most of the year. And then Americana was released and I had a whole new batch of songs. Including this amazing anthem. There's one particular reference in here that reminds me of one of my ex-boyfriends.
