10 Albums You Loved As A Teen (But Should Never Listen To Again)
When teenage angst becomes grown-up embarrassment...
Nostalgia-fuelled listens to tunes of yesteryear can stir powerful feelings of sentimentality. Their catchy choruses can take you back to those summer holiday mornings spent browsing the net, chatting on MSN/AOL Messenger and sorting out plans with friends. Their melodies can whisk one away to treasured family trips abroad, or make you think of an old lover who has become a distant memory.
Or, in some cases, they can make you cringe hard and wonder what the hell you were thinking.
