Awkward teenage music - your recollections

an odd theme I cam across for a party was “Teenage awkwardness and angst” and was going to be like a prom for adults. I know many users here are older than me and likely have a better idea of what awkward prom music from about a decade ago was and I also just wanted to ask:
what kind of music in your heart reminds you of the awkward and angsty teenage years?

Get Low- Lil John and the Easyside Boys is the only song that reminds me of prom for some reason. lol

Used to be obsessed with scouse house, and now I get somewhat embarrassed when I tell people I used to frequent the pleasure rooms. I think I still have a load of old scouse house CDs upstairs somewhere

“Put a donk on it”

Buying (and listening to) ‘Baker Street’ by Gerry Rafferty (on 7" vinyl aka ‘seven single’ format) because a babe said it was a good song. Then she dumped me.

(:open_mouth: maybe THAT’S why I center my posts :open_mouth:)

We didn’t really do ‘proms’ at my high school, but all this is making me think of primary school discos which in my mind I always associate with superman by black lace.

limp bizkit…and any sean paul at sweet 16s

12

:wink: hell I’m old - for me “Superman” has an “O” and means Laurie Anderson :wink:

13

oh man…i remember the most of them :expressionless:

14

Actually all it means is that you aren’t familiar with Black Lace (lucky you). There’s only a couple of years between the release of both records.

Limp Bizkit :disappointed: Though I did redeem myself by discovering (then) underground hip-hop.
