Audio nostalgia...

[faiththatbreathes]

I was looking through some of my older CDs the other day, and what do I find but the Newsboys' album Shine? Not having heard that CD for years, I (naturally) play it and the song Breakfast comes on. It was deja vu for three minutes straight. Eighth grade just came rushing back. OK, not ALL of eighth grade, just some of the better bits. (the most I could find online was the 30-second sample here http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00004ZDML/002-2508862-6332814?v=glance)

What song or CD brings it all back for you?

My older cds all have some significance for me ... well, not necessarily older. Whenever I listen to Now by Greg Long, I think of a two hour traffic jam in Chicago ... Switchfoot's song "Only Hope" reminds me of my ninth grade chorus concert ... and Do You Know This Man? by Al Denson reminds me of the long drive back after a day of hiking at a local state park. *thinks*

Listening to Third Day's Offerings 2 brings back to this awesome spring day when I bought their cd...and now the rest is history...

Stryper......1980 something or another.....I was listening to Iron Maiden,Motley Crue and the likes......and a friend played "yellow and Black attack".....and I was hooked until about 1990 or so.......I listen to their CD on my PC now ....and I'm like what in the world was I thinkin'.....oh well

Oh by the way I'm old!
just ask my teen age daughter......but she sez I rock (so I'm good)

The oldest 2 albums I still pop into the CD player are The Dingees -- 'Armageddon Massive' and Plankeye -- ' The One and Only'. They aren't anywhere close to my top records anymore, but when I remember how great I thought they were when I first got them and how important they were in shaping my taste (AM was my first punk record, and TOAO was my first rock record after being into hip-hop for months ).

As to what my first Christian CD ever was, well it's better if you don't know.

Definitely Shine. A friend lent it to me a couple weeks ago, and I felt like I was 12 again. Also, Fear of God, John Reuben's Are We There Yet?, and the songs Fast Car by Tracy Chapman and Yellow by Coldplay take me mback to grade 7. Ginny Owens makes me feel like I'm at camp

HHHmmmmmm....lets see you were born in 86' so..........Let me just say they are a great band and paved the way for CCM ( in some ways ) to go mainstream.......(I can still remember seeing " calling on you" video on MTV)
BUT, have you really taken a close LOOK at the clothes they wore.....very scary
.....What i'm trying to say is, if you were there in the 80's and had the mullet and leather jacket thing going as I did..........you wouldn't think it was so cool when you looked at your yearbook pic's........hehe
