Elementary School-7th grade: I have no idea what i listened to. I pretty much listened to the radio, mainly the local oldies stations in the car with my dad, and Radio Disney in the car with my mom. Concerts I saw with my parents include: Journey, The Dave Matthews Band, and Leann Rhymes.

2006: This is the year I fell back in love with music. This year started my transformation to who I am today. It started later in the summer with cabin fever. I was browsing youtube.com and came across the video for A Million Ways by OK Go and immediately went out and bought Oh No. Somewhere around here I bought the Self-titled Three Days Grace album and fell in love. This is also the year I became connected (more like addicted) to myspace.com. While browsing the music section for "band" i came across Bandcamp; a band i fell completely in love with. I purchased their album Wanna Dance? Myspace also introduced me to another band: Marianas Trench. I still listen to their album Fix Me frequently.

2007: Myspace greatly influenced my listening habits in 2007. I thought I was obsessed with Forever The Sickest Kids until a close friend pointed out my obsession with Mayday Parade. All I know is they were my two main bands of 07. FTSK starting in January, and MP around June. 2007 was also the year i went to my first concert without the rents. The bands that performed on November 17th[?] were: Alesana, The Number 12 Looks Like You, and Drop Dead, Gorgeous

2008: I have yet to figure this year out. My library EXPLODED [kaboom] with new artists, thanks to free legal downloads off of myspace and purevolume. :) i attended many concerts, and probably became one of those teenage tycoons that EVERYONE hates. :) hehh oops]]> http://www.last.fm/user/taylorade/journal/2008/12/31/2d7pvk_its_about_a_man_whore_who_wants_a_certain_girl%3F_%5Bmusic_shuffle%5D Wed, 31 Dec 2008 18:15:54 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/taylorade/journal/2008/12/31/2d7pvk_its_about_a_man_whore_who_wants_a_certain_girl%3F_%5Bmusic_shuffle%5D Here's how it goes:

1. Put your iTunes on shuffle and write down the first 25 songs you get.

2. Take the first line from the first song, the second line from the second song, third line from the third song, etc. and put them in order below to make your scrambled song.

3. If the song doesn't have enough lines, loop back to the beginning; like if you need the 22nd line but the song only has 15 lines, you start counting again with the first line and use line 7.

1.linkin park – faint
2.escape the fate- friends and alibis
3.home grown-keep your distance
4.bright eyes-i will be grateful for this day
5.the hoodies-all i want for christmas is you
6.someday never-dear regina
7.holiday unheard of- golden strand
8.three days grace-drown
9.the arrival-locked and loaded
10.jet-get what you need

12.meriwether-fight back
13.settle the sky-cheyenne
14.seether-fallen
15.robot love story-north by northwest
16.atreyu-bleeding mascara
17.avenged sevenfold-afterlfe
18.downtown fiction-living proof
19.hollywood undead- no 5
20.the doors-people are strange
21.the lives of famous men-annie taylor
22.ok go-a good idea at the time
23.rookie of the year-any longer
24.saosin-bury your head
25.fourteen years from forever-frustration


The lyrics:

I am a little bit of loneliness a little bit of disregard
Yes, it is true
It's getting complicated and it's getting old.
and play the music loud
I just want you for my own

So save your breath or at least what’s left
reminders of the past.
If I needed someone to hold me down
Take it out on

You're gonna get what you need (you're gonna get what you need)
if i move to the right will they shift side to side
And I realize the strength my errors bring.
Why can't we be alone now?

I believe in the callin'
even when you're not around I've got some memories
like a withering rose
No pain or sign of time (I'm much too young to fall)

Sweat falls down, my stomach starts the sinking
Girls give me props and there on my jock
When you're strange
and you’ll perform your exit for the masses.

Now what you gonna do about it?
more than you'd know
They went back on us,
i fake]]>
