A Mini Rant

You ever have a song for a special someone or even a best friend? I sure do. In fact, I have entire playlists for people. But one thing I hold sacred is THE song, the ONE song that all parties involved agree that "this is our jam, homes." I think it a cardinal rule to save those songs for people, even if you hate their guts years later. Because if you hear it, you instantly think of them. That song represents you and them and cannot be defiled by recycling to another person. For example, the following songs are forever ruined for me because of past relationships:

• Fall For You by Secondhand Serenade
• There For You by Flyleaf
• Nicest Thing by Kate Nash
• Thinking of You by Katy Perry
• I Miss You by Blink182
• Hummingbird by Nevershoutnever
• Together With the Sundown by Stephen Jerzak

Those songs I still really like and sing along to. But they're sacred and I won't re-use them for anybody. Just like I have specific hate songs for each person those previous songs used to belong to.

• Ex-Girlfriend by No Doubt
• BlahBlahBlah by Ke$ha
• 1930 by Gaslight Anthem
• Alligator Blood by BMTH

And now I have sacred songs for my boyfriend now. Which will always be his no matter what. Even if he doesn't know I actually have multiple songs for him...Yeah. But still. Sacred.

And I have songs for my friends like:

• Hey Ya! by Outkast
• The Twist by Frightened Rabbit
• Misery Business by Paramore
• Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes
• Dinosaur by Ke$ha
• My Darkest Hour by Scary Kids Scaring Kids

What are some of your sacred songs and do you feel the same as I do when people recycle your sacred songs for someone new? Yeah, I'm talking to you, ex-boyfriend who just wrote a blog using my song for some chick. I ranted thanks to you.
