Sunday Songs

I don't know if any of you have been watching Nashville but I'm really enjoying it.
Here's a Sunday Song from Nashville :)

Hope you're all well <3

Ultimate Feel Good Song

So whenever I am sad, I listen to Simon and Garfunkel. This doesn't always work to cheer me up because most of the time I just start crying at how completely perfect their voices and lyrics and just EVERYTHING is. But I have deemed this as the Ultimate Feel-Good Song. Because when you're happy, you need a song for it. And when you're sad, you need something to cheer you up. This song does the trick.

Coming Home

So no matter where I've lived, I still consider Abbotsford to be my "home". While Chilliwack is, I guess, my hometown, I've always felt more like Abbotsford is. It's probably just because of the friends I have, and all that home is where the heart is stuff. But for whatever reason, it's home. And I'm going to be home in five days (four if you count that it's technically Monday now).

I still need to make a Sunday video. Whatever. ANYWAYS. Along the theme of coming home, I have a Jason Mraz song.

I never used to listen to Jason Mraz because I was annoyed by him for some reason. And then, for no reason at all, I downloaded his new CD and started listening to it and it's amazing. This is one of my favorites:

see you soon

McFly and related things

So I'm guessing you know McFly.
 

Carrie is quite the singer herself. She was recently in Alex Day's Lady Godiva video, which was too weird to even watch or put here. If you're super invested, you can find it on Youtube. It's disturbing though. Because Alex is a disturbing person.

Anyways. Carrie is amazing. So naturally I've gone through all her videos and this one is my favorite:

Mostly because in the others she is super close to her computer and she has a bad mic and it sounds bad but also because I love this song and because her voice is perfect and GAH.

I think that's enough videos for today. Love you.

Party Songs (Anna don't read this one)

So the party is tomorrow and the playlist is made and the cake is being ordered, and all systems are go.

I thought I'd just share one of the many songs that will be played tomorrow night.

Also in honor of Shoshana's fairly sleepless night last night, I give you One Direction. This is why Anna can't read this one. I'm not allowed to talk to her about One Direction. Whatever.

Happy Friday (that will also be on the playlist) and Safe Partying (Safety Dance is on the playlist)

BYE (BYE BYE) is on the playlist. Stopping. Later.

double posting here

I just have a lot of feelings. And by feelings, I mean songs. And this one in particular has been PLAGUING ME.

In a good way. Not a bubonic way.

Okay, so this song. I feel like if anyone else had sung it, they might started off quietly with a whisper and barely-there-piano, and it would have RUINED the whole song. But THIS GUY. This guy starts off strong with solid piano and his voice all loud and crap and then the beat comes in and it's perfect and I just uhhhghghghghghg.

Also, my management prof said something to me (by which I mean our class) today that pretty much summed up all the problems that exist in our society. He said: Kids see skin color difference. They just don't care.

And then what happens is they grow up and their parents don't teach them properly and they grow into prejudiced people. But if everyone came at it from the angle that kids do, we could all get together and eat a cake made of rainbows and smiley faces and we'd all eat it and be happy.

ANYWAYS. The song.

BYEEEE.

Keep it up and don't give up

So because I have a problem (A Coldplay problem) I was searching the "Til Kingdom Come" tag on Tumblr and it led me to THIS SONG. Which is a great song.

It was one of those "if you like THIS song, you will like THIS song" and I'm not sure it always works that way, but in this case it did. So the song is All Will Be Well by Gabe Dixon Band.

I just really enjoy it. Also, I'm currently creating a party playlist for Saturday so if you have any recommendations, LET ME KNOW.

Hamish

In case you're looking for baby names.

Okay so this might be every day for a liiiiiiiittle while, just as I spew out all these wonderful songs I've been keeping to myself for so long.

Today's is brought to you by MARCH MADNESS. Because I realized it is ever encroaching and it just reminds me of Seminary and makes me miss it so gosh darn much. It also makes me miss YOU guys and all the games and competitions and the early mornings and just being around people who all shared a love for maybe not the early mornings but definitely for the message and the blessings and for Sister Collingridge because she is fabulous. Anyways.

It's Never Gonna Leave This Bed by Maroon 5. Because I'm pretty sure that's how we all felt at 5:30 am on those special weekday mornings.

Also Adam Levine is so gorgeous. I hate his face, it makes me angry.

HAVE A GREAT SUNDAY. Maybe don't listen to this song until Monday. LOVE YOU.

Here begins a new segment

I'm going to call this segment "I like this song and so should you".

So I know I kind of dropped like, seventeen balls there. But I'm back. Ish.

When I was writing every day, I kind of had to force myself to find a song and that got me stressed out - albeit on a tiny scale - and I ended up posting songs that I felt mediocre about. I've just decided to post songs when I really want you guys to hear it. Whether it's one you've heard, or one you haven't, or one that makes me laugh or cry or is just great to sing along to. I want to share that with you.

I'm going to start with Til Kingdom Come by Coldplay because I've been listening to it a lot. Now, I know this will killlll Alex but I'm not actually a huge Coldplay fan. I mean, I like all their recent singles and I definitely don't HATE them at all, but I also just don't listen to them all that much. Then I found this song, which was actually because I downloaded a playlist about how Ron Swanson feels about bacon.

And this does accurately sum up his relationship with bacon, as well as Alex's relationship with a male violinist who is actually straight, and Shoshana's relationship with a very large man who has a great beard and plays ukulele and/or sings really well. Also my relationship with my future cats.

At any rate, here it is:

With that, I hope you have a great day and that all your lives are going well and such.
