Nineties Revisited: Don't Change Your Plans


Original video located here. Accessed 4th September 2021

Song title: Don't Change Your Plans

Artist: Ben Folds Five

Year: 1999

Why I like this song:

Back in 1999, this was my 'turn of the millennium' theme. And how could it not? Consider the situation: The 1900s were ending; the 90s were ending and my teens were ending. As such, this song represented the need to move on and embrace both adulthood and the future - "But destiny is calling/ And I told them when my time is up / I'm out of here"

For me, this song is effective as a goodbye/moving on song and one I have come back to many times since
