Days 16 & 17

Day 16-- A song you like, but a friend hates.


Lady Antebellum- Downtown
I'm purely guessing here and hoping that I'm right. My good friend Krista has pretty good taste in music ;), but she doesn't like country... so it can't be THAT good (just kidding Krista!). Anyway, here's the song I picked and I'm just figuring that since it's a country song, she hates it. I'm probably right. I'm like, a psychic or something... haha.

Day 17-- A song from a movie.
But there's SO many movies, and songs. It's too hard to pick just one! Ok-- so I mentioned 'The Goonies' in an earlier post, and so why not a song from that movie!?


Cyndi Lauper-- 'The Goonies' Are Good Enough' This song is my childhood. Just listen to the awesome 80's-ness.

**Bonus song** I couldn't pick just one song from a movie so, here you go.


'Time Warp' from Rocky Horror Picture Show. If this song doesn't make you want to dance, you have no soul! P.S.-- Columbia is my favorite character in the movie. She's so melodramatic!
Enjoy! XO

Day 15. 100 Day Song Challenge

Day 15-- A song you hate.

This is going to be SO easy for me. The sad thing is that I probably wouldn't hate the song if they didn't play it 1 billion times a day on the radio... and the best part? I don't even listen to the radio that much, but I've heard this song the most lately.


Echosmith-- Cool Kids.  Cannot stand this song. It's just not very good. I can't say anything else about it, other than it's boring. To me. So-- enjoy, or if you're like me, then don't. Either way it's all good. XO

100 Day Song Challenge

Day 13-- A song with a good video...

When I was like 9-10 my mom recorded this video off of MTV and showed it to us. I didn't know who the group even was until my mom showed me the video and now I'm a fan for life. So-- think about that before you judge me... my mom introduced me to them. ;)



Backstreet Boys-- Everybody. We literally would rewind the tape and watch it over and over again. I remember watching the making of the video and even learning the dance moves with a friend of mine. Ah. Good times.

Bonus video***

Here's another great video just because.





Because who DOESN'T like Blink-182 and even if you don't like them... this video is genius.

Day 13/100 Day Song Challenge

Day 13-- Your favorite cover song.

Songs so good they had to be done twice... or sometimes three or four. Recently I discovered Alex Boye on YouTube and I LOVE his covers. He gives them a bit of an African Tribal flair and I'm a big fan. So-- without further adieu...



This is Alex Boye covering 'Ho Hey' by "The Lumineers" which I love in and of itself but I really love the way he covered it. Plus-- the music video is filmed in Downtown SLC (part of it anyway). I hope you enjoy this as much as I do. It's a real easy listen. XO

Day 12 song challenge

Day 12-- A song from an artist who has died.


There are, unfortunately so many to choose from but one of my absolute favorites has to be this lady. There's not much for me to say about this song. This is one of the first Janis songs I remember hearing, and it will forever always be a favorite of mine. Tragic that the world has lost so many talented artists well before their time. Sit back, give this a listen and just relax. xo

Day 11/100 Song Challenge

Day 11-- A song from an artist I'm attracted to. Hmmmm... Ok. You're all about to get a taste of the Utah in me with this one. I'd never listened to country music ever until I moved here and let me tell you-- there are some damn fine country boys making music out there. 


Luke Bryan- Play It Again. Luke Bryan... aaaah. Tall drink of water right there. I'd shake it for him if he asked me, and take a ride in his big, black, jacked up truck and I'd probably have fake babies with him, Peeta and Katniss style if he offered. Plus, who hasn't sat around all night waiting for their favorite song to come on the radio? Especially if you wanted to record it and make a mix tape? Ok-- maybe I'm showing my age with the mix tape reference but still. Even if you don't like country music Luke Bryan is beautiful.

Day 10/100 Song Challenge

Day 10. A song from one of your favorite albums. What is the album?

Well, shoot. This too, is complicated. But since you can never have too much awesome British Classic Rock love in your life, I'll share another song by The Who.

This song is called 'Pinball Wizard' off of the rock opera album 'Tommy'. The entire album is uh-mazing. This is one of my many favorite songs on the album-- and check the video, they're puppies and Keith Moon is by far the best part. He might just be my favorite drummer of all time. Ok-- basically he is. So- just sit back, relax and listen to the musical genius that is 'The Who'. You're welcome.
