Prompt: "A song that you loved in high school and haven't thought about it in a while"
Selected by Maeve
"Chain Me Free"
The Matches
E. Von Dahl Killed the Locals, 2004
Did I pick this because I'm writing a day late and don't want to piggyback on Bridget's the Format choice? Maybe.
This song takes me back to such a time and a place, but to even remember what it was took some digging. I had a mixed CD that my friend Austin had made me that was adjacent to bands at either the 2004 or 2005 Warped Tour. I kinda sorta remembered the name of the band. I couldn't have told you the name of the song. I scrolled through their singles, this came on, and I knew every damn word. What a hit. It's so of the time, I almost expect it to start skipping as I listen.
