The Songs Which Have Shaped Me – Looking Back On The Songs Which Have Become My Own Life’s Soundtrack

This list of songs will inevitably grow by a metric fuck ton as I randomly procure the time to sit my ass down, listen to EVERYTHING in my mental playlist, and write about it to share my personal thoughts on all these songs which have shaped my personal perspective on a lot of things in my own life. Songs from my own life’s soundtrack based on who I grew up around and was exposed to. However brief some of these may be. Look, some of these Gen-Z kids have the attention span of a goldfish so I’ll be surprised some of them make it past song #3.
