I had the sudden urge to listen to Thirty-Three while I was at work today.
And so when I came home, I put it on, and it was just as great as I remembered it.
This album reminds of being in Grade 9. It reminds me of sunny days, and good friends, and just, a time when things were, different. Not good, not bad, just different.
It reminds me of long walks, and farewell and goodnights, and losing people, and meeting people.
This album meant a lot to me, it meant so much back then, it still means a lot.
I love Mellon Collie days - which is funny, because my Mellon Collie days are never very mellon collie.
I'm glad I've fallen in love with it again.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness was a great CD I cant wait for them to finish in the studio. I like this band so much and Zwan as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwan

I definitely dig Mellon Collie, listened to it a lot in middle and high school with my (ex) boyfriend. Though listening to it now, it sort of annoys me how much fluff is on the album. I like Siamese Dream and Gish best.

I was seriously addicted to that cd when I bought it. It was my first SP cd. "Bullet w/Butterfly Wings" was the main reason I bought it but fell in love w/the entire work. Awesome cd & now you've inspired me to listen to it again cause I've not heard it for a very long time.
