And now for a musical interlude...

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a fan of all things music. My tastes are all over the place and range from new to old, country to broadway and all things in between. Here now (since I'm a bit bored) are the songs my ipod tends to land on most frequently. If I were you (but I'm not) I'd take the time just to check them out if for no other reason than to kill some time.

Merry Happy - Kate Nash
This song, with it's doo doo da-doo doo's and talk of cheese on toast is just a happy lil diddy that makes me smile.

Crazy People - The Wreckers
Very distinct country twang and sweet harmonies. It's the perfect drunk chick country song about getting knocked up, knocked out and killing the sob's wife who did it...them him as well. It's all sung with a funny vibe and they just crack themselves up at the end of the song.

Ruby Blue - Roisin Murphy
Definite dance tunage. Makes you have an attitude, and you can't help but groove to the catchy beat and Austin Powers like vibe. Very Groooovy baby.

Gravity - Sara Bareilles
Yup, heard this song for the first time on So You Think You Can Dance and instantly fell in love with it. The melody is haunting and it makes you completely chill out. Of course, I see the dance that was done to it in my head, which just intensifies the meaning of the song. Look up Kayla & Kupono addiction on you tube to see the dance...no really...do it.

Very Busy People - The Limousines
Warning-explicit lyrics. Fun song though.."so come and knock upon our door, it's open whatchyou waitin for, we might be sprawled out on the floor, but we still make lovely company." Really? How can that not be a great song?

The Outsiders - Needtobreathe
I CAN NOT get enough of this song! And believe it or not, they sound just as incredible live and acoustic as they do on the single. They are a Christian group and their songs have fabulous lyrics and melodies. Just AMAZING...check it out NOW!

Pink Moon - Nick Drake
Can you say Mellow? I know I can.

Rainbow Connection - Draw Tippy
Yup, Kermit's song done up all punky...very cool!

Yesterday - Boyz II Men
A-Capella version of a classic song. Boyz II Men does a-capella like no one's business. Crazy good. No matter how many times I listen...I still get goosebumps every time.

Swing Life Away - Rise Against (acoustic version)
I've just always liked this song. "Sit on the front porch and swing life away..." Cool man...

Hide and Seek - Imogen Heap
This song was sampled in the current hit Whatcha Say by Jason Derulo. The sample does not do the original song justice. The melody is magical and flowing, and the lack of backing music makes the song incredible.

Mad - Ne-Yo
I loved this song way before Philip and Janeen danced it on SYTYCD. I love Ne-Yo's voice...smooth and velvety.

You and I - Ingrid Michaelson
Quirky and upbeat...two wonderful qualities to have in a song. Yay!


Oh I could go on and on. But I shall break for now and let you check out all the fab tunage listed on here. Feel free to let me know your faves...I'm always up for checking out new music!
