Think back to your awkward middle-school days. The first kiss, Razr phones, braces, Hollister and Abercrombie t-shirts... you get the picture. I know I definitely didn't peak in middle school, but the music scene definitely did. Thinking back on music between the years of 2006 - 2009, I honestly can't think of a song that I don't still know most of the words to. These songs are the first songs we truly chose to listen to on our own and will be telling our grandchildren about, calling them "the oldies" and reminiscing about our childhood. These songs were the best for so many reasons, but I can guarantee most of you completely forgot about them, until now.
