  2. "Thirteen" is a song by the American rock band #BigStar. #RollingStone describes it "one of rock's most beautiful celebrations of adolescence", and rated it #396 on their list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. It was written by #AlexChilton and #ChrisBell. #BillJanovitz of #BuffaloTom writes in his #AllMusic review of the song, "There are few songs that capture the aching innocence of adolescence as well" and calls it a "perfect melancholy ballad".

  5. Songs about coming of age and Jesus (and the tangled connections between) delivered as exquisitely recorded perfect power pop gems.

    There’d be no Matthew Sweet without Big Star. But then again, Big Star never was as great as Matthew Sweet.
