Today's music list

Top 11 Songs


1. Northern Downpour-Panic! At the Disco
 "you clicked your heels and wished for me."
I love sweet songs.


2. Rescued - Jack's Mannequin
    "Say you'll miss me one last time and I'll be strong. Whatever you do, please don't get me rescued cuz I'm thinking I just might need to be near you."
   It's a slow, sweet song. It's one I day dream to.

3. Not Now-Blink182
   I can't explain this song. Listen to it.

4. Watercolors in the rain - Roxette
 "Seems like I've been running all my life, like watercolours in the rain".
I'm a big fan of roxette. They're an old band from sweden or something, not terribly well known but my dad's always listened to them. Check them out. They're my hippy music.

5. Breakeven - The Script
All these songs so far are slowish. This is a song that just snaps me out of a haze.

6. The climb - Miley Cyrus
I don't like her performance, which just makes me love singing that song all the more, i feel like i do a good job. It's a catchy song and I like the words.

7. Tenderness on the block - Warren Zevon
 I don't know why I just love this song.

8. Folkin' Around - Panic! At the Disco
You've never been so divine in accepting your defeat, and I've never been more scared to be alone.

9. It's all your fault - P!nk
 The entire CD of funhouse is arguably the best thing for me when I'm upset. It's very emotionally raw and listening to it is healing. I'll get into it later.

10. Peacemaker - Green day
Again, I really like this CD in general. This is one of the songs I hadn't listened to much until just now so I'm into it atm.

11. For Good - Kristin Chenoweth, Idina Menzel
This song makes me think of my close friends. If I ever write a book, I'm going to have a part of this song and a short list of names. You don't have to listen to it, but I would encourage you to just at least look up the words.


So much of me is made of what I've learned from you. You'll be with me, like a handprint on my heart. And now whatever way our stories end, I know you have re-written mine by being my friend. Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you, I have been changed for good.

Albums.

1. Funhouse - Pink
 Like I said this CD is fantastic. I would tend to think it would only seem so fantastic and healing to women, she wrote it while she was in the process of divorcing her husband (i'm not sure what happened but they're together now.) So some of the stuff is very much about that and some general frustration toward men. This CD is wonderful because it has bitter songs like It's all your fault, sad songs like crystal ball and glitter in the air, and angry songs like So what?

2. Pretty. Odd. - Panic! At the Disco.
I loved their first cd, and this one is miles and miles above it. They cranked up everything great in the first one (Clever lyrics, Brendon Urie's voice), and toned down things I didn't like so much (Crudeness and some of the editing stuff). I've heard some people think this CD sounds like the beatles. From what I can tell I agree, but I haven't listened to that much beatles. This cd is 99.999% Family friendly (he says damn in one song) and really musically wonderful. If you like Panic for his voice and the lyrics you will love this cd. It surprised me how talented they all are, this album showcases that really well.

3.Everything in transit - Jack's Mannequin
One of my all-time favorite bands. I like their second CD, but not as much. This one is the best. When I finally owned it and got to listen to it I had this incredible feeling of ecstasy like I've rarely felt. I just love it. The music and lyrics are fantastic. It's a great CD with wonderful songs that make me want to live in California. They actually have several songs about california on both albums and I have never been to cali but this music makes me want to live there.

4.Church Music - Crowder
I'm in awe of this CD. I always forget how much I love it until I listen to it again.

5. Hymns - Page CXVI
They do the best covers of old hymns that I've ever heard. Their version of Joy is wonderful it shows the frustration in life and the calm God gives. A halfhearted I've got the joy joy joy, "And I can't understand, and I can't pretend, that everything will be alright in the end.", and finally "when peace like a river attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows roll. Whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say 'It is well, it is well with my soul.'". Brilliant.

6. 21st Century breakdown - Green Day
I love this CD, Green day makes me happy. This doesn't make it into my top five but I do like it, it's a good cd.

7.Wicked: The original Broadway cast recording, or something.
This is a great CD with great performances of great songs. I love the book, I love the musical. Wicked is one of my favorite stories and the musical I have no way to explain it. No one mourns the wicked is one of the best songs ever made, I have to say. Seeing Wicked live was like nothing else.

8.How to save a life - The fray
I don't have a lot to say. I really like this cd and less than the love I feel for some other CDs i just feel like it's one everyone should have.

9. Rebel - Lecrae
He is a fantastic rapper. This CD has great theology, great music.

10. The Fame - Lady GaGa
Did you really think I could leave this out :) It's a great dance CD. P-p-p-pokerface, boys boys boys, paparazzi, the only gaga song i love that's not on here is speechless, which is better acoustic than the cd version anyway, so is paparazzi. Anyhoozle.


I also like david bowie, queen, Ozzy (duh), Cake, coldplay, flight of the conchords, and a bunch more. But I'm done with this post.
