[heismykryptonite]

i dont like years i have time periods in my life defined by songs BH & BG was all about pink and sakira then BH but AG was worship songs and true acoustic folk and now im in AG AH i am really into paramore rise against and the acoustic stuff i like b4

[hyrulemusic]

High school was mostly "It's Goin' Down" by X-Ecutioners and also "Keep It Coming" by Nate Dogg. Those were the days I was just getting into hip hop, and those songs were two of my favorites.

Candy Shop is a great track, but I reckon Fifty could have done a bit better with the lyrics.

[anAbundanceOfAmys]

alsooo MIKA <3 and jason mraz :D

we've got identical music taste my dear

[anAbundanceOfAmys]

Pink went to my high school :) my choir director was the first person to tell her to sing. true story!! haha i LOVEEEE pink <3

[biggeek]

This year I have become obsessed by

Wizard Rock

[blackbird874]

they weren't lesbians, they had boyfriends, and i think it was just a publicity stunt.

[rnb8220]

so that last post was sort of the main favorite music of the majority of my teen years.

I like your songs but they're all too new to be really retrospective about imo.

[Silver1226]

I loved Pink's Misundaztood ^__^

Oh I love your year by yea, it is so perfect, I remember them all as they play ^__^

Okay, I was with you until 2004.

I love the video for Candy Shop, the scene where the girls whips his shirt off.. I just loved that.

Oh good, I frigging adore Mika. I am so kind of in love with him, and I love his new album.

Was the 2008 song Jason Mraz?

I think the Vloglovers song should be 2009.

[anadenna]

ah, mika. so many good memories to mika... and thirsty merc, actually, in 2007. my first year of uni, as well. and my first year in australia!

this year... it's not very mainstream, but for me, it has to be kate miller-heidke "can't shake it."

[creativemachine]

I was JUST getting into Grace Kelly and you STOPPED IT JUST BEFORE THE CHORUS!! How COULD you, Min? HOW COULD YOU!!?!

~dies~

[DragonflyNoir10]

[bigxminh]

if we get married we can combine our cd collections and rule the world...just throwing that out there <3

[officialravenzoe]

That's true <333

[leahfly1]

1. ... so many

2. Something Lady Gaga

3. Lean On Me (because living on a prayer was taken by the year before.

[dctcool]

For me the song of 2009 would have to be "like it like that" by Guy Sebastian it's such a feel good entertaining song.

[LadyEinin]

One of your best videos yet :)

2005 (year 10) for me was the year I discovered boys and Green Day, so just about any song off the American Idiot album or an earlier Green Day one brings back those memories.

[DragonflyNoir10]

1. The year 1998 Too Deep by Ivana Santilli, changed my life.

2. No sure about this years song.

3. I was class of 1998 but the song that really stuck with me was from my first year at college in 99 "Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen." The Perfect song for someone who's just entering adulthood.

[TheProfessor109]

"Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen" That is the best Graduation song anyone will ever hear!

[mrpiggyfans]

this summer was completely i got a feelin.

and for some reason i remember my second grade year.. like 2001 being kryptonite by three doors down.. lol

[PurplePiratePixie]

This year your song should be "Geeks in love" ....the intro to vloglovers =)

[rappstack]

This year is my last year of high school. :)

So the answers to all the questions seem to muster up : I Gotta Feelin by BEP

[proudveggie]

I've Gotta Feeling by the Black Eyed Peas will always be the song of Summer 2009 for me :)

[lysmeanslily]

graduation-graduation day by head automatica i listened to it when we were changing

this year i'm not so sure but probably ATL because even though i'm not desperatly homesick it's my first year at uni and i miss my mom and my friends even my job. Even though i hate Cleveland Ohio with a bloody passion

[NinLor]

I actually have only one song that defines exactly one year... all the others I can't place

suprisingly the year is 2009... ;)

the song is 'Seasons of Love' and pretty much the rest of the rent album *lol* =) !

[AccioCrr]

umm...so I don't usually relate periods of times to songs but my year was all about You Don't Know Me by Ben Folds and Regina Spektor, Durmstrang Boy by the Parselmouths and recently I've got nothing WHICH YOU SHOULD GO BUY NOW even thought it doesn't count anymore haha xD

[robotnic]

I remember every one of these!

1. Mr Brightside, Dontcha, & Gold Digger remind me of 2005, 1st year at uni: major freshers week tunes!

2. This year is probably Paper Planes for the start, Kids by MGMT for the middle, and You Don't Know Me by Ben Folds & Regina for the end.

3. They played Loch Lomond, which when you're from Scotland gets played as the last song at ALL major events. There was also lots of 90s cheese like No Limit and Boom Boom Boom, so it's hard to define my graduation!

[asimplecadence]

Ahaha, I do the same thing!! Yes, they were lesbians, Min, haha. OMG I LOVE MANEATER! Yesssssss! Mika? Oh yesssss. I love himmm :D

1. Cosy In The Rocket - PSAPP

2. Manhattan - Kings Of Leon

3. Our song for High School grade was Good Riddance - Green Day

[lysmeanslily]

i hate when people use good riddance for high school graduations. my school did it too. It's a break up song. the only way to make me more angry is using it for weddings.

[asimplecadence]

Yeah, I was a bit peeved, lol.

[bookeight]

Great video, Min :)

[sajethegirl]

1. "In the middle" by jimmy eat world was 2003/4, "Somebody told me" by the Killers was 2005.

2. "Boom" by Anjulie, at least in my life this song IT of this year.

3. Don't remember, probably "Good Riddance" by Green day... i hope you have the DIME of your life. :P

[WasItJustMe]

One song that always reminds me of tmy tenth grade year (I was in this outdoors program thing and we always sang it on our trips) is Hips don't lie. I seriously always think of tenth grade without fail whenever I hear that song.

I think my song for this year will be either Jai Ho remix by the pussycat dolls of I got a feeling by the black eyed peas. Both were pretty much around at the best parts of my year.

Grad song... don't remember.

[TicTacKitCat]

Im 15 at the moment so grew up listening to so much bad (yet brilliant) pop music. Basically between 98-2004.

This year my song is Mr Brightside by the killers - because it represents that I now listen to actual good music and have grown up tonnes this summer. But Ive got nothing should be it too because the gig was awesome :)

[xaouqinz]

they weren't lesbians, but they wrote their songs as if they were, whether for attention or for yucks, i don't know.

hmm this year's song is..."such great heights" the postal service.

at my graduation they only played the traditional "pomp and circumstance" and the star-spangled banner :-\ boring. but at my junior high "graduation" they played "Good Riddance" lol.

[iamguitarhero]

1. For me it is Slide Away - Oasis. Since I am a big fan of Oasis and after their break up I just like listening to my favourite song of theirs.

2. I really have no idea I don't listen to current music all that much. Maybe something by Kayne, since he is so great.... Kidding :P

3. As for graduation.... What could be the most fitting yet most unoriginal song ever! Oh you know it, Vitamin C and her famous song were kicking it at my graduation.

[BritFilmLover3]

Where Is The Love was DEFINITELY the song of 2003!

Although for me the song for 2002 was Cry Me A Riv.... WHY am i telling people this???

[arrowsforpens]

1) I'm sad to say that Cascada's "Everytime We Touch" is my 2006. We blasted it in my friend's convertible coming back from a field trip, and then they played it at my prom. Sigh. Then I heard "Hey There Delilah" every day during summer 2007. No escape at all.

2) Can it be "I've Got Nothing"? :D

3) Our graduation had a string quartet. At commencement, though, they played Queen's "We Are the Champions." The only problem there was that it wasn't followed by "Bicycle."

[moonagedreamer]

1) omg Mika totally defined my freshman year of high school. A senior and I became friends cause we both were obsessed with him (& Queen & Rufus Wainwright, but Mika at first) and I thought I was so cool having older friends :-P

2) The Killer's Spaceman will always remind me of this summer cause my friends and I went to go see them for my 17th birthday!! And it only just came out, but I feel like Bad Romance is gonna be my jam this year.

3) They don't play songs at our school's graduations...

[emerp2007]

1. The song This Is What Dreams Are Made Of from the Lizzie McGuire Movie reminds me of 2003 soo much and it was pretty much my song for about 2 years

2. Hmm I think this year for me will be 'I'm on a Boat' It's all about being happy and stoked to be where you are plus it was HUGE

3. I haven't graduated high school yet but my primary school one was 'A Better Way' which was this horrible church song :-/

[shelbieeex3]

Grace Kelly still makes me smile and dance around. I love Mika!

[weckiewicz0bunny]

TaTu <3333

and they weren't lesbians, it was a publicity stunt :o They both had hubbies

[charlequin952]

and if they would have been together, it would have been incest squared

[sillyme1915]

chasing cars was 2006.. could not turn on the radio without hearing that song

this years song should be single ladies... not so much played on the radio... but played on the hour at every single club without fail.... either that or "poker face"

at my grad we walked in to "its like that" by Run DMC

and we walked out to "times like these" by the foo fighters

[sillyme1915]

wait it totally was played on the radio all the time.. but i meant i chose it more coz of the clubs

[iamaseagull]

hahaha oh pink.

[RawrTwisted]

wondered when this was going to appear xD

[1GOD1JESUS]

awesome!
