Thirteen Candles by Mary Magpie

It’s become a tradition that each year, I create a playlist for my birthday party that represents me and my friends and all the times we’ve shared. The number of songs represent the number of years I have been on Earth. This task can sometimes be difficult, chosing songs that speak of a year gone by isnt really as easy as it seems. Add to this the diverse musical interests of me and my friends and you have a whole different approach. This year’s selections are:

1. Friends and Alibis by Escape The Fate.
2. Friends Don’t Let Friends Dial Drunk by The Plain White T’s.
3. If You Want To Sing Out, Sing Out by Cat Stevens.
4. This is for Real by Motion City Soundtrack.
5. Put Me Back Together by Weezer.
6. Here We Are by Mercy Mercedes.
7. Overtheyears by NeverShoutNever!.
8. Legends by Madina Lake.
9. Champagne for my Real Friends, Real Pain for my Sham Friends by Fall Out Boy(R.I.P.).
10. Coffee Break by Forever The Sickest Kids.
11. Growing Up by Fall Out Boy.
12. Almost Here by The Academy Is…
13. So, in this Hour by The Rocket Summer.

As you can see I have great memories of a year gone by I have shared it with some amazing people. As is tradition, this playlist will be made into a CD for each of my guests so they can relive it at any time, acting as a party favor. Only handed out to those who attend, these will eventually become collectible and will be sold on eBay. No autographs please.
