So I'm making a GSW soundtrack, to accompany the area 3 soundtrack that Christian made us. It's either songs that I listened to a bunch while there, sang a bunch while there or had some significant meaning. And to give some insight into my experience and such, I thought I'd post the list and explain some of them! Yay fun!

1-Time of My Life (Dirty Dancing)~Aside from being a general theme for GSW, Dirty Dancing was one of the movies that Emily, Neda and I watched during our late-night film series.
2-Mrs. Potter (Counting Crows)~I listened to this song endlessly for the first 2 weeks. I also based a lot of my area 2 truths and falsehoods on this song.
3-Smells Like Teen Spirit (Nirvana)~First of all, Emily broke her foot moshing to this song at the formal. Sad, but really funny stuff! Also, Emily and I think Kurt Cobain was one cool guy.
4-Jupiter (Gustav Holst)~Favorite orchestra piece of the summer and Neda programmed the melody part as her ringtone. We hummed it a lot.
5-Baby Got Back (Sir Mix-a-lot)~It was played at all 3 dances and we also briefly joked about singing it to the Gramley boys.
6-These Three Remain (Eric Peters)~After receiving the cd from Christiana, I played this song endlessly 'til break. It was also my beautiful thing for area 2
7-If I Wrote You (Dar Williams)~Ali and I decided that we love Dar Williams and 3 days later the dancers used this song in their concert.
8-You've Got A Friend (James Taylor)~The first time I talked to Hannah, she asked me to play this song. We sang it a bunch. It's another sorts general GSW theme.
9-Cover Man (Rob Seals)~Rob led a songwriting workshop and talked about how he wrote this song. Then he played it at his concert that night. Rob's another cool guy.
10-Circle of Life (Lion King)~This was the first song sung across dorms (Gramley to Babcock) and was later sung by 2nd floor Gramley both in the refectory and at open mic night, with the monkey mask and all!
11-Devil Went Down to GA (Charlie Daniels)~Rob the violinist played this at the second open mic night, a day or 2 before he had to leave. We missed Rob.
12-Pina Coladas (Jimmy Buffet)~David French's song de la semaine for week 5. There's nothing like watching David sing and dance a Jimmy Buffet song (yes, I do know that Buffet remade it, but the Buffettness is essential to the GSW aspect of it)!
13-Come Away With Me (Norah Jones)~My contribution to the area 3 soundtrack. Neda and I sang it (badly) a lot.
14-I'll Be (Edwin McCain)~Sarah's contribution to the area 3 cd, which I proceeded to sing endlessly for the last 2 days. Also, it's loosely a theme.
15-One Song Glory (Rent)~The song that Christian finally sang for us in area 3 the last day. It was well worth the wait!
16-Can You Feel the Love Tonight (Lion King)~It originated as a possibility to sing to Gramley. It ended up a part of Jacob and Graham and crew's group hug act. The act consisted of a group of 7 or 8 guys running up to a random person (usually a faculty member) and group bear hugging them and swaying as a group and singing CYFTLT without knowing half the words (and thus humming them). Good stuff!
17-Time of Your Life (Green Day)~ The ultimate GSW theme.
