( I will post the 80's ,90's and 00's on separately because: a)it's like 1 am in the morning and I have school tomorrow; b) I spent my childhood in the 90's so I am really proud to be a 90's kid(I am repeating myself, aren't?); c)because there is too much info on one post).
Today's song: Sex pistols - God save the queen (because I am a social reject)
