Saved by the Bells


I just received a text message from my sister saying:


'The carillon on campus is playing "Danny Boy" right now but all I can hear in my head is Jesse Spano singing "Oh, Arty Boy" at Slater's lizard's funeral.'


I laughed till I cried, literally, because anytime I hear that song I think the exact same thing.


Other songs that for the rest of my life will only be associated with Saturday morning television on NBC:


"I'm So Excited" (natch)


"How am I Supposed to Live Without You" (Jesse and Slater preforming during the oh so moving Zach/Kelly break-up scene at prom)


What other songs have been forever marked in this way?

  2. I still prefer the Chipmunks versions of "Uptown Girl" and "Beat It."
