Remember These...


OK, so this is only a virtual cassette tape created here.

However, if Supernatural was around 10 years ago - long before MP3 players and iTunes, and all the cool kids had those things called Walkmans - I suspect I would have had at least one real, honest-to-God cassette tape which would have been labelled something like the above.

It never would have been a Scotch tape though. From experience, that brand sucked out loud. For me it was BASF or TDK all the way, dude. I had so many MIXED tapes I'd created myself... All of them choc-a-bloc with 1927, Southern Sons, John Farnham, Daryl Braithwaite, New Kids on the Block and Richard Marx. And I can always tell if I really, really liked a song because instead of having it on the tape just the one time, I had it on there, like, 5 times. Brings back memories of sitting in my room, listening to American Top 40 - with Kasey Kasem - on my cassette radio, finger hovering over the 'record' button, hoping to capture my fav songs of the time. Damn DJs, always talked over the beginning of the songs too. Man, that annoyed me.

I guess my taste in music has changed somewhat - Thank the gods! Which kind of brings be back, in a round-a-bout kind of way to my current obsession - All things SUPERNATURAL. Seriously, how cool is some of the music from that show. The soundtrack to my life is currently held in the PLAYLIST: "Supernatural Season 1 & 2" on my MP3 player and the 'Play Count' for Carry On My Wayward Son by Kansas - currently at 948 times and climbing - is a fair indication of how much I really do listen to them:
