Beat Happening - Beat Happening


I've been deathly ill with the flu for the past few days and I was thinking about how it feels to be sick when you're a kid. Being sick at college is kind of like that. You get to skip class, you kind of drift towards "sick" foods like ginger ale (James Damon and I have agreed that ginger ale is a sick drink before) and soup. For me, I even get kind of whiny and act a bit like a child. So, in dedication of being able to feel like a kid again even if only through crippling illness I thought I'd include some songs that make me think of childhood. The album that i most associate with youthful ignorance is Beat Happening's 1985 Self-titled twee masterpiece on K Records.

Beat Happening - Youth
Beat Happening - Run Down the Stairs
