I actually have a running list of favorite albums that I keep in my phone because usually when somebody asks me what my favorite of anything is, my mind goes completely blank and I forget any media I have ever consumed.
This is an easy answer for me though, because I often say that this album imprinted on my little 14 year old soul. In general, I do feel that music from our teenage years sticks with us more than any other time. Probably something to do with where our whole beings are at developmentally. Iβm sure someone has already looked into it.
This album is such a comfort to me, and feels so much like⦠me. I got to see the 20th anniversary tour of this album and the Postal Service with my sister and you best believe I cried the entire time.

1 of 2 albums I can think of at the top of my mind that I listened to in its entirety. This takes me back to that summer in 2013 when I was listening to this album non-stop along w some indie songs I discovered thru 8tracks (I donβt know if anyone else will know this site, it was a gem). Also it was the time of my life I was just getting to know freedom from being able to travel solo and/or w friends or just discovering life. Akin to a coming-of-age movie. π
I donβt know if I make sense.

This album was so important to me as a teen, listening to the covers is really stirring up a lot of feelings. Wild after all this time I can still remember exactly how it felt to be 16.

That feeling from finishing a day in high school and being autumn but still not winter. Like Vampire Weekend's S/T, Interpol, Deerhunter, The strokes..... Truly remembering what being 16/17s was like.... prob gonna make a playlist

Humans have always danced. It is part of who we are, yet we have been conditioned to be self conscious, to think that we do not move our bodies good enough. Dancing is beyond judgement. Dancing is not a skill, it is our soul moving through our bodies, expressed in movement. Dancing is healing. Dancing is bodily autonomy. Dancing is FUN! Any feeling you are feeling can be moved through with dance yet even alone, you fear looking foolish. Kill the judge in your mind, shut the fuck up, and MOVE π
