Highlights from the soundtrack of my life.

November 2016 Faves

“Fresh Eyes”. Andy Grammer

i didn’t want to include the next one at first, but I CONSTANTLY heard it and by now, you know that I tend to have musical tastes of a teenage girl…

“Treat You Better”. Shawn Mendes

“Love Me Now”. John Legend

A couple throwbacks that I heard, almost forgot about, and ABSOLUTELY LOVE!:

“Better Man”. Pearl Jam

“My Own Worst Enemy”  Lit

I heard this song and laughed because it reminded me of Michael Rhoades and a paper he wrote in high school…

“Summer Girls“. LFO

September 2016 Faves

“This is What You Came For”.  Calvin Harris feat Rhianna

This song reminded me of Barwis and my Dad.  Now, I’ve NEVER heard this particular song at Barwis nor was it around when my Dad was alive but two places where country music is appreciated and I like this song.

“Humble and Kind”. Tim McGraw

“Pieces“. Rob Thomas

“I Go Through” O.A.R.

“Happiness”  NeedToBreathe

“Kids”  OneRepublic

Umm… Wow.  I didn’t know any of this before I saw the video…

“Won’t Stop Running”. A Great Big World

August 2016 Faves

So I recently saw the movie Burnt OnDemand.  (I have a thing for Bradley Cooper). I watched it 8 times in my 48 hour rental;  I really dug it even though they use the F-bomb a lot. (NOT that that bothers me!)  I wouldn’t exit the OnDemand screen until this song played that was in the end credits.

“Fire” Barns Courtney

I heard the next song on the radio by Blue October and it  floored me! When did we get old?! Singing about kids and family?! I remembered Blue October singing the 2nd song.

“Home“. Blue October

“Calling You”. Blue October

I heard Gavin talking about this song when it was debuted on the Pulse.  I love that man!

“She Sets the City on Fire“. Gavin DeGraw

My mom has seen The Legend of Tarzan in the movie theaters 5 times and counting. This song is in their end credits.  I could only watch it with her twice.

“Better Love“. Hozier

I heard these next two songs on “Train Tracks” which is Pat Monahan’s show on the Pulse.

“Got Your Number”  Serena Ryder

“Don’t Let Me Down“. The Chainsmokers ft. Daya

“Hell No”  Ingrid Michaelson

I forgot about this one but it’s right after high school serving at Lone Star when I could still walk way before my MS diagnosis.

“That’s the Way I remember it”  Chris Gaines (Garth Brooks)

 

July 2016 Faves

So, I know I have already posted this song but the version I posted was a lyric video. This video is different and I recently saw You Before Me this song was in the movie and I really dug that movie! So, forgive the redundancy but here it is again

“Unsteady“. X Ambassadors

“Not Today”. Imagine Dragons

“Can’t Stop the Feeling“. Justin Timberlake

I’ve been listening to this song when I fall asleep. It’s my “Seanie song.”  We’re going to dance to it at his wedding.  I cry EVERYTIME I hear it!

“To Zion“. Lauryn Hill

I’m binge watching Grey’s Anatomy right now.  This song was on it and I had completely forgot about it!

“Beautiful Dawn”. James Blunt

April 2016 Faves

This song has grown on me:

“Let It Go”. James Bay

i thought about posting this one for a couple of months but didn’t.  Now that is reminds me of Nyle and Peta’s first dance on DWTS (I really watch that now) because of Von Miller.

“Cake by the Ocean”. DNCE (EXPLICIT)

“Pride”  American Authors

“Unsteady” X Ambassadors

“Wild Things”  Alessia Cara

“Giants“. Matt Nathanson

“Something in the Way You Move“. Ellie Goulding

“Shots“. Imagine Dragons

March 2016 Faves

“Carter and Cash” Tor Miller

“Better Place”. Rachel Patten

“Brand New”. Ben Rector

“Fire and the Flood”  Vance Joy

My colleague burned this CD for me about five or six years ago and didn’t tell me who sang it.  I really liked this version of this song. The next day, she told me who it was by.  I dig it!

“Me and Bobby Magee”  Jennifer Love Hewitt

I recently read Sara Bareilles’ book and dug what she said about this song

“Gravity” Sara Bareilles
