I´m starting up a “new series” of posts – and I´m calling it Music Mondays. Ironically  enough I´m starting it today, on a wednesday, but whatever…

I got this idea straight out of The Post Family, but it fits in really well with one of my big interest – music – and the fact that I lack of things to write about, especially in the offseason.

First I´d like to say something that is really relevant to this post, and that´s why I love the timing of my birth and the places I´ve lived.

I love the fact that I was born in the middle of the 80´s (1986) because I grew up without internet and too much electronics – but started using it at around age 13, early enough for it to be a natural part of my life now. I had video games avaliable to me at around age 7, had an active childhood where I did sports every single day, and I started going to the mountain by myself at an really early age around age 7-8 if I´m not totally mistaking? Greenland is probably the reason why i was able to do this.

I feel like ALOT has happened and changed the way people live their lifes over the past couple of years, and I feel my age made it really easy to cope with it all. Do you remember how your cell-phone looked 5 years ago, or which cell-phone was your first? I do, and also remember what things were like before people got cell-phones. Kids 5 years younger then me probably don´t..? And I really appreciate knowing both sides of the ecuation.

I also remember my first CD and ghettoblaster. I got it for christmas. The CD was Ace of Base – Happy Nation and the blaster was a black sony with Radio, 1 CD player and 2 cassette players. I´m guessing kids now a days wont remember their first mp3 files, computer or cell-phone by the time they hit 20.

Another thing I love about growing up when I did was the cartoons my generation watched. I believe (correct me if I´m wrong) we grew up with more cartoon classics then any other generation before and after us, and this FINALLY brings me right into what I really wanted to share before en started babeling about my childhood…

Here are a few Disney movie songs I fell over to start things off – they are genius! The texts impress me alot now that I actually understand them!..

This is an ode to good music, good cartoons (which adults can actually watch) and everyone how grew up with these movies, and all the other great Disney Cartoons of the late 80´s and early 90´s.
