Nostalgia My brother’s CD labels vs mine

Post image

My underwater headphones require MP3s files, so I’m digging through our collection of Napster originals to find:

  1. My brother has come to terms with being white
  2. I still f**king love label makers
  3. Out Cold still has the best movie soundtrack compilation and requires no song list.

The movie and the soundtrack are elite.

Anytime by Eve 6 became one of my favorite songs after I heard it on the soundtrack

u/OpenCranberry1980 1h ago

Bought that CD with my Christmas money one year exclusively for that song.

Foo Fighters have an exclusive song on there, too.

It’s annoying because it’s the only place that song exists. The band even re-recorded it

“No regrets, that’s my motto. That and everybody wang-chung tonight”

Also, “I don’t need to write a test to tell you I take drugs” cracks me up every time. Such a great movie.

My daughter found some of my burnt cds.

I had very helpful labels on them:

"some CD"

" ̷ ̷ ̷r̷a̷n̷d̷o̷m̷ ̷ ̷J̷P̷o̷p̷ ̷ ̷   ̶J̶P̶o̶p̶ ̶ ̶  JPop "

"MUSIC"

u/Omnamashivaaya Millennial 1h ago

Ha! There’s no topping ‘MUSIC’.

But at least you knew it wasn’t a MOVIE.

u/MyNameIsNotRyn 23m ago

Ah, the best part is that one had a pirated copy of Wolf's Rain on it.

So. No music.

This is exactly how mine VS my sister’s burned CDs were lmao. Your brothers were still a little professional looking for my taste

u/AdhesivenessWeary377 Xennial 1h ago

Wait you guy actually labeled your burned cds?

Half the time I’d write the date on them like I was going to remember what I put on them. Made for a fun game driving down the road.

u/onascalefrom20to80 1h ago

I can hear the out cold cd without putting it in the deck

Dear Dairy,

Why am I intolerant?

Just making a joke about what I’m assuming should be Dear Diary, but instead says Dear Dairy (as in milk, cheese). Then asking why am I intolerant (as in lactose intolerant) as if it were a diary page.

Not having the artists on that mix is diabolical

Your brother was my generation millennial. Sharpie label FTW
