you know how certain songs seem to represent a year or phase of your life, as if you did nothing that whole time but listen to one song or one album on repeat for every waking minute?

and then when you hear it later, it takes you back. so I realized “Santeria” by Sublime has been a totally “Tucson”/my time in Tucson song for me (yeah 90s. they never die) and it made me decide which other ones are too. 

these are the songs that will always be Tucson-time for me:

Santeria- Sublime

The Jeep Song- Dresden Dolls

A Lo Cubano- Las Orishas

Diamonds and Gold- Langhorne Slim (this is the most important one.. this is my traveling song kinda)

Home- Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes

The Remedy- Jason Mraz

It’s a Wrap- Jean Grae

Irreversible- Grieves

I Against I- Planet & Jedi Mind

hmmmmmmm. oh and Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen. but that’s like, my life soundtrack.

sooooooo cheeseeeeeeee.
