My favorite song of all time is "A Praise Chorus" by Jimmy Eat World. This song takes me back to right when i got home off of my Mission in the Summer of 2001. In fact, the song specifically brings to mind that stretch of road with the hill right before you enter Lincoln City and can see the ocean. Growing up listening to the oldies with my dad probably helped because it was the chorus of "Crimson and clover... over and over"" (from the song "Crimson and Clover"by Tommy James and the Shondells) that got the song stuck in my head.
Fun Fact: The Chorus of "A Praise Chorus" is literally praising 7 songs from bands ranging from Bad Company to They Might Be Giants.
1. A Praise Chorus - Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American (2001)
Hey, why don't you have one of those music things on here?? I don't even know most of these songs. Once I got married I sorta stopped listening to music. Weird. Especially now with kids, I will take whatever quiet time I can get!!
