Am 26. Oktober 1997 fing ich an, Tagebuch zu führen. Ich war 14 und in der 9. Klasse. Ich schrieb bis 2004, und machte jedes Jahr einen „Soundtrack“ mit 20 persönlichen Lieblingssongs. Heute, als schlichte Liste: Alle 380/400 songs von 1997 bis 2017.

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 all 380/400 songs from 1997 to 2017.
