Which songs/albums take you back to college?


Some of my most vivid memories are from my college years and certain albums/songs really transport me back in time. Just curious what those may be for you.

1. Pearl Jam - Ten. Nothing defines my college experience more than this, nothing. Every song has a special meaning.

2. Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger. Lots of drinking happened to this album, memories a little fuzzy.

3. Gin Blossoms - Hey Jealousy. New romance.

4. Tool - Undertow. I'm really sick of college (esp electromagnetics) at this point and this album lets me rage.

Nrenter -

Looks like you and I were sweating the same classes at the same time, my nightmare occurred at NC State Univ however. :)

I remember buying Nevermind and not really liking it, probably because Teen Spirit was being played ALL THE TIME. It's funny because now Nirvana is one of my favorite bands.

I remembered a few others which somehow I left out of my initial list:

Alice in Chains - Facelift (I'd put that right up there with PJ's Ten... almost)

Metallica - and justice for all, as well as the black album

Vanilla Ice - yep, freshman year.

Paula Abdul was everywhere too

Lots of R&B/Hip-hop types like Bell Biv Devoe, Boyz 2 Men, etc my freshman year. I was never a fan but after getting them drilled into your head on the radio they have to be acknowledged for brain pollution.
