There are two songs that Pandora played for me recently that remind me of MSCL in different ways.
1) Vertical Horizon - Everything You Want
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZoD8JEFjAE&ob=av2e
"He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why"
At first I thought "Ok, so this song is about Angela and Brian." But then I realized it's not exactly like that cause Brian doesn't really say the right things at the right time (nor does anyone in this show, I guess
) And realistically speaking, IMHO Brian isn't what Angela wants, however deep inside her we may look.
2) The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVNAp1C8LIw
"I can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place
...
For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen"
I have no idea why it reminds me of MSCL! It's not related to MSCL in terms of plot or theme, but it seems like MSCL could deal with an issue like that. The song is about this guy's girlfriend who had an abortion and then killed herself. I'm not sure MSCL would deal with suicide, but the abortion part I can see being explored.
I guess the "I can't be held responsible" part vaguely reminds me of Jordan's attitude too, in general (not sure about the specific hypothetical context where he gets his girlfriend pregnant).
