Your ultimate middle school dance playlist for when you need to put on a tube top and turn up like it’s 2006

Everyone who went to school in America between 2004 and 2012 shares a very special culture. A culture of pop, lock and dropping our donks in our Apple Bottom jeans in front of the principal and chaperones.

Sit and let your mind float back to that sweaty ass gym where you danced the night away to Nickleback before running to the bathroom and putting on your Lipsmackers in case Johnny from math class tried to sneak a kiss behind the bleachers. Think of your old best friends who would swap Abercrombie shirts with you and tell you if your pink, studded belt was all turned around.

Sure, you might miss it. But think about it: we aren’t dependent on punch some skeezy eight grader spiked to turn the fuck up now. Here’s your playlist for when you and your pals need to party like twelve-year-old you only dreamed of:
