"I mention this not because I think most readers particularly care that I know all the words to every song on the Horrorscope album by Eve 6"

MILLENNIAL ROCK MENTIONED!!!!

Sorry but this was, in fact, the most interesting part of the post, for me!

lmao it just goes to show that I never know how a post is going to be recieved.

Horroscope was my go-to "wake up and get the blood pumping" album back in law school. Horroscope is unique because all of the songs are reasonably upbeat beat-wise but the lyrics are the opposite of saccharine or boring, so it fit my mood and kept my mind engage. I had a horrific commute -- up at 4am to take the Marc train from east Baltimore to Union Station, then the DC Metro up to Bethesda.

Ever since, Inside Out & Promise have been my go-to karaoke songs because people are always startled that I (as someone who has always had a pretty hardcore responsible-white-girl vibe, I *look* like I should be singing Strawberry Wine) can pull it off and know all the words. But the "Heart in a Blender" song is a favorite and Eve 6 is to this day the only band I've ever done the VIP early-access ticket thing for.
