If you watch the OC and One Tree Hill, don't you just love the songs that they play when the show is about to end? It would either be a slow song, if the show's ending scenes consists of mushy moments or an upbeat song, if the show's ending is either a fight or a party. Before, I wasn't really into the whole indie/emo genre of music, but now I'm totally hooked!
I can vividly recall the very first time I got hook on indie/emo music. It was after this episode of One Tree Hill played Howie Day's "Collide" at the end scenes of the show. That song instantly got me hooked and ever since then, I always listen to the "end scenes" music of One Tree Hill. The OC, on the other hand, got me hooked when they played Jem's "Maybe I'm Amazed" at the end of the last episode of Season 1.
After being hooked and now, being obsessed, I constantly find myself listening to the YAHOO messenger "Adult Alternative" channel on their radio or surfing the net for any "free to listen" to music by any artists songs that was played in either show. I also find myself surfing for the list of songs that were played in both shows. HAAA..... such a dork. HEHE.. But hey, this is a nice alternative for me. I'm tired of listening to the same old played-out songs that keeps playing over and over again on the radio, the same old songs that stored in my WMP and the same old songs in the CDs that I own. I'm happy that I have discovered a new "love" in music.
Now all I have to do is buy a Napster prepaid download card, so that I can download all the songs that I like from both shows. That way, I can play all of it over and over again until I find another new "love".
Here are "some" of the songs:
