Hey, I'm Charlie Bartlett and this is my blog about teen movies, music, videos, personal rants. Feel free to make a request or ask advice and dont forget to register!
Since I’m still in a Nirvana mood right now I thought I’d share their episode of Classic Albums. It goes into detail about the stories behind each one of the songs on their classic CD Nevermind- which STILL happens to be my favorite album of all time. You can also download the dvdrip version of it from rapidshare below and it’s much better quality and includes extras.

This was the last song recorded by Kurt Cobain before he died. It’s really haunting and the lyrics are intense. There will always be people that suspect foul play in his suicide, but to me it’s obvious he killed himself. Just listen to the lyrics, he wasn’t happy and this song proves it. The compilation of Nirvana’s stage footage goes great with this song, it just goes to show you how much they really did rock. CLICK HERE to download the DVDrip…
I’ve been feeling a bit old lately…no joke. I know I’m only 20 and all but, shit, all of my younger friends just can’t relate with all of my responsibilities now. Most of them have never had a job in their life and never lived a week without mommy doing their dishes and cooking for them. I remember being lazy too, but damn, was I really THAT lazy?
Uhh, I have no idea why I just typed that. I was gonna talk about the song, but o well.
I don’t usually share new movies, but for this one I’m making an exception. It has to be one of the best romance movies I’ve seen in a while (and trust me, I HATE 99% of cheesy romance movies). Basically, the plot centers around this kid that deals weed out of an ice cream cart and to people at his high school. But, unlike in cliche hollywood movies, this kid is NOT cool. He has the hardest time getting girls (and even friends for that matter) yet he has a mission to get laid over the summer.
Basically guys, if you ever were/are a so called “friendless loser with no girlfriend” you can relate to this movie. Hell, since I was obsessed with playing video games and listening to music on my big ass headphones in 9th grade he kinda reminds me of myself. The best part is that it’s set in 1994 so they have references to Biggie and Kurt Cobain. The entire soundtrack is old-school hip hop.
As promised, I will share the best and most popular Puddle Of Mudd album “Come Clean.” When Blurry hit the Top 40, you just knew they were gonna be big. They may not be original at all, but they still know how to rock. For God’s sake look at the damn cover. Read more…
Hands down My So-Called Life was one of the greatest teen shows of the 90s (if not THE best). I don’t even care if the main character was a girl, this show ROCKED! It was one of the greatest of it’s time because it was one of the first American shows to REALISTICALLY address things like drugs, sex, homosexuality, depression, etc. Sure, that gay-ass Degrassi show TRIED but, of course, it was cheesy as hell. Plus, this show was made back in 1994 so it’s AUTOMATICALLY cool. Unfortunately, there was never a second season, but you can download all of the first season below in HQ or watch it online if you’re a member. Download Full Episodes or Watch online…

Here’s a music video that really needs no introduction. How should I put this….uh…IT ROCKED THE WORLD!!!!! Just to give you an idea of how big this song was- before this song, the whole “Alternative” genre didn’t exist and Alt rock stations were non-existent. You can watch it above and download a higher quality version below on rapidshare. As for the lyrics, basically he’s making fun of how naive teenagers are in nature (they like to be entertained, metaphorically they think that ‘with the lights out it’s less dangerous,’ etc) Read more…
This is the album that started it all for me. Before this I was still listening to that top 40 crap my parents listened to on the radio. I can say with confidence that this is the only music album that I’ve ever heard that I thought/still think is perfect in every way. I’ll admit, when I first heard it in 9th grade I wasn’t accustomed to listening to alternative music. Since this is about as alternative as you can get I didn’t like the majority of the album, but for some reason, year after year, I kept going back to this album and found that I liked it more and more each time. Hopefully you will too.
