Trumped

I have admitted that I have “radio ADD.”  Radio ADD is a self-diagnosed condition where one constantly feels the need to change the station when the song ends when in the car.  I am constantly changing the station when a song ends and I do not like the next one.  I have lifetime XM radio in my car  – the BEST present I gave myself when I was in grad school and got my overage check from my loan payout.  I have told my son that I “don’t listen to commercials; therefore I do not listen to FM radio any longer.”  My Mom can’t stand my “radio ADD” habits.  She HATES driving with me.  My son has adapted well (I think he may have it too).  I always need to scan ALL of my pre-set stations to see if there is a better song on a different station.  My son is aware of the necessity for me to do this.

However, some songs will automatically “trump” any other song.  U2 songs (ANY U2 song) will trump any other song on any other station ALL THE TIME because I LOVE THEM!!  I thought of this this morning on my way to work, there are now two other songs that I have given the “trumping” power to.  These two songs are songs that my Mom REALLY likes and dances to them whenever she hears them.  Whenever I hear these songs, I can see her dancing and it brings a smile to my face EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!  My Mom is 61 and I think it is the cutest thing to see!  Here are the two trump worthy songs:

“Poker Face”  Lady Gaga

“Somebody That I Used to Know”  Gotye
