Song title: Burn Baby Burn
Artist: Ash
Year: 2001
Why I like this song:
Lately I've been rediscovering Ash.
This was a key band in my teens, largely through they ability to talk about things that would appeal to teenagers, whether it be girls, kung-fu movies, Star Wars or the confusion of adolescence.
Listening to their stuff now, it strikes me just immediate these songs are. Granted that is expected of the punk genre but they certainly hold up well and quality of song-writing is rock solid - which is more than can be said of some of other bands of the era.
Is it strange for a thirty-something to be hearing music for teens? Without a doubt but perhaps that's a testament for how good the songwriting is.
