Me to ThePreteen: Make good choices. ThePreteen: Make a better choice and stop watching #PitchPerfect *the chess match continues*

Pitch Perfect has been a staple in the house for quite some time. The first time viewing it, I was a blubbery mess, thinking that soon The Teen would be away at university, making friends and memories. Since then, I have a fondness for the movie, and can quote most of the lines. I lead a charmed and an envious existence (wink).
The PreTeen is highly annoyed that I spent time making this list. He claims he will have dreams about Pitch Perfect. Like that’s a bad thing!
The following are the songs that stuck out for me during the movie. This is a LONG loading post, but I think it’s worth the load time.
