Nineties Revisited: Girl From Mars

Original video located here. Accessed 12th February 2016

Song title: Girl From Mars

Artist: Ash

Year: 1996

Why I like this song:

Punk rock and girls? An unbeatable formula. 
As long as there are teenagers there will be an interest in punk rock. And this band did indeed speak to me as a teenager as they a) were relatable as they were still teenagers themselves and b) talked about topics that I was trying to understand (girls). 
Funny how these guys reached me when Blink-182 did not...

Song title: M+Ms

Artist: blink-182

Year: 1994

Why I like this song:

I was never a fan of blink-182. It may be an unpopular opinion but I was less enthusiastic to their hits and more favourable towards their serious songs (I Miss You, Adam's Song, Stay Together for the Kids). 
Having said that however I still have soft spot for this: It was my first exposure to them and yes, it did speak to me as a teen. It was fun and kinda cute.
