"Holiday" by "The Get Up Kids"

Song: Holiday
Artist: The Get Up Kids
Album: Something to Write Home About (1999)
Commentary: My brother bought me this album when I was in high school, a few years after it came out. If I remember correctly, I was dabbling in emo, pop punk, and screamo music, but OF COURSE the separatist Christian subgenres. So my brother said something along the lines of, "At least listen to good emo." and gave me this CD. I find it a pretty enjoyable album to this day. During my last summer of camp (2020) -- when I lived alone in the lower 100 acres among all the empty cabins in the woods -- I just left STWHA in the CD player of my minivan all summer, so everywhere I went for 3 months was soundtracked with this album picking right back up and looping around and around. "Summer's swallowed us whole" indeed.
