Your Bright Eyes Are What the Time is, Twenty Five Past Eternity

Congratulations to Andrew Tuegel for correctly naming "Bartender" by the Dave Matthews Band as the Wednesday Song of the Day.

It is difficult for me to listen to music and not allow that song to take me back to a particular memory or period in my life. In 5th Grade it was listening to the album Cracked Rear View by Hootie and the Blowfish. I hate to admit this, but my sophomore year of high school I actually thought Creed was pretty good. I was young and foolish. Chastise me if you must. My junior and senior years I was practically obsessed with the Dave Matthews Band. It was difficult to ride with me without listening to Crash or Before These Crowded Streets. Once I arrived at ACU, I began to delve into the world of Phish. When I say delve, that means I did not go full-scale into the Phish sub-culture by growing dreads and smoking large amounts of ganja.

When I look back on this period at the beginning of law school, one album is probably going to stand out. That album is White Ladder by David Gray.
White Ladder is not Gray's most recent album, but for some reason the music connects with where I am at this point in my life. Gray deals with a lot of themes about what it means to be on your own, how that process can be painful, but how there is growth in continuing to press on.

What are the albums that you listen to and are immediately reminded of a certain phase in your life?
