On a not-so-secret, secret patio on the College Strip, the conversation turned to this:
"Make a soundtrack of your life and give it to your friends. This soundtrack could be songs you like, songs you grew up on, songs that tell a story - and it doesn't have to be contained on one disk - it could be spread out across volumes..." (not an actual quote because, seriously, who talks like that?)
Thus, Vol. 1 was born.
I grew up on these tracks, but not by my own accord. These tracks were what my old man listened to; in the family rec room, on long road trips and everything in between. I remember listening to these long before I started purchasing my own tunes (I got a late start) and the tracks give way more insight into his personality, than mine.
But one things for certain: for my old man? He has a pretty solid taste in music...
(this is not a complete list in any way, shape or form - not even close.)
Money for Nothing - Dire Straits
Sweet Dreams - Eurythmics
Message in a Bottle - The Police
Billie Jean - Mike Jackson
Hungry Like the Wolf - Duran Duran
Like A Virgin - Madonna
Everybody Wants to Rule The World - Tears for Fears
Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel
