people talk about pumped up kicks as the premiere "school shooting song that is really catchy" but they're fools because i don't like mondays by the boomtown rats is right there and has been for nearly fifty years.
#personal
#first of all it does give 'if i had a nickel for every time an insanely catchy and upbeat sounding song about a school shooting came out'
#'i'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird it's happened twice' because yeah foster the people and boomtown rats both doing it
#that's a coincidence
#(tho i think pumped up kicks is more speculative whereas i don't like mondays is literally about the cleveland elementary shooting)
#but second of all that song is so good i listen to it more than i should considering the subject matter
#and for anyone wondering 'hey amelie you were born in 1999 why are you so into songs from the seventies and eighties?'
#my father was the parent responsible for driving me around to school and various weekend activities and he was born in 1962
#my music tastes have been so indelibly marked by his old white guy from wisconsin vibes
#you wanna know my first exposure to the karate kid? wasn't from that gay netflix show
#it was because he played 'young hearts' by commuter a lot and i REALLY loved that song when i was ten
#and it happened to be in the soundtrack of the movie
#and yes you did hear me right at ten years old one of my alltime favorite songs was one that came out in 1984
#from what appears to be an incredibly obscure band
