I started keeping a diary on October 26th, 1997. I was 14 and in 9th grade. I kept up until 2004, and every year, I made a ‚personal soundtrack‘ with songs that reflected last years‘ themes and storylines.
Here are 20 songs for ‚Season 17‘, October 2013 to October 2014.

- We are Twin: „Cold Stone Lips“
- Paula i Karol: „Calling“
- Amy Macdonald: „Slow it down (Acoustic)“
- Blind Pilot: „New York“
- David Gray: „Forgetting“
- The Tragically Hip: „Bobcaygeon“
- Wye Oak: „Civilian“
- Chris Garneau: „Hands on the Radio (Unplugged)“
