Crazy Life
The Holden Caulfield Playlist
I put together a playlist to go along with The Catcher in the Rye for an English project. If the novel was a film, what songs do you see playing throughout certain scenes? What lyrics describe Holden’s situation?
Here’s what I came up with:
1. I Don’t Want to Grow Up - The Ramones
2. The Only Living Boy in New York - Simon & Garfunkel
3. Between the Bars - Elliott Smith
4. How to Fight the Loneliness - Wilco
5. People C’mon - Delta Spirit
6. Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now - The Smiths
7. Mad World - Gary Jules
