rememberances

i remember the first time i heard 'don't look back in anger' by oasis. i was standing in the middle of a disco in england, summer '96. i think i would give up my first born child to see oasis play that song live. it's weird how certain things trigger emotions. each time i hear that song, i'm transported back. and for that, the gallagher brothers will always have a special place in the soundtrack of my life.

turns out zach braff won a grammy for the garden state soundtrack. i heard someone describe that album as the big chill soundtrack for our generation. it's good, but damn. it's not that good. the big chill is like....well, for the lack of better terminology, it's the shit. but garden state is a close second - with extra props for the simon and garfunkel.

i just downloaded the ryan adams cover of wonderwall. i love covers. the HIM cover of 'wicked game' is most likely my favorite, but there are so many more. i think if i was a singer, i'd cover someone like ashlee simpson. i mean, who is going to argue that your version doesn't sound better? zing.

by the way, i love google image search.
