What is the Song of the Day?
The short answer...
Ever had a song that just won't get the heck out of your head (good or bad)? Well that is what I present to you on a (almost) daily basis. Welcome to the songs lingering in my head.
The long answer...
It was many years ago when the original song of the day was created, on the front of my high school binder. Every day, a new song was added using the "Official Song of the Day Pen". Over the course of my freshman year I had a binder completely covered with songs. So I started a new one.
This habit faded away over time (probably for the best), but it's neat to go back and look at what songs were popular back in the day, many of which I barely remember were even songs. I soon hope to have all the old songs of the day featured on this website as a permanent archive of the Song of the Day.
Now I'm hoping to archive my current "mental song list" for all to enjoy. I hope you can find some cool bands and songs here to get stuck in your head.
