Well this really isn't a band....but a person....and he has a band, does that count?!
ANYTHING by Toby Keith.
UGH this man and his DUMB songs. Really?! I feel bad cuz my dad really likes him. His music...pointless....his lyrics....pointless. I think he just annoys me. I really don't think there is to much more to say....just can't stand him.

Day 11 - A Song From Your Favorite Band
Well gee I have to pick only one?! haha...
This one goes too...Dave Matthew Band - Crash
This song is BEAUTIFUL....it is like the ulitmate love song. I love hearing it! This song just puts me in the best mood...Dave's wife is one lucky girl to have this song written about her...really. Nothing but love is from this song...and it is one and will always be my favorite.
"You've got your ball you've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you
You come crash into me..."

Day 10 – A Song That Makes You Fall Asleep
This one is SO easy….This song is by an artist that is SO under appreciated by radio, itunes, TV etc. My friend Kelly actually introduced me to him…and I am SO thankful for that!
Matt Nathanson!
He is incredible really!!! I love his voice, his lyrics, and his music.
One of His best songs to fall asleep too is Bulletproof Weeks. Man this is SO good. When I have a hard falling asleep I always grab my ipod and put this song on.
“So what happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms
What happened to feelin' cheap radio songs
What happened to thinking that the world was flat
Yea, what happened…”

Day 9 – A Song You Can Dance to
This one for me is a guilty pleasure really…haha.
The Time (Dirty Bit) – The Black Eyes Peas
This song does nothing but make me wanna dance. There has been many a time in my jeep or Michael’s truck…where I bust out in a dance. This song is just plain fun!
Check it out!

Day 8 – Song You Know All the Words to
Well that would be a lot of songs now wouldn’t it?! Haha My friends call me the lyric and music queen….cuz I know so much. I think that this a great thing and I wish that they still had the game show “Name That Tune” cuz I would ROCK! So I thought to myself what can I do for this? Well I am going to go with a person who I think is great lyrically. I would like to say Taylor Swift. She writes from her heart, and you can feel this in her lyrics and her songs. I have never related so much to one person and song than I have to her three CDs that she has put out. These CDs and music just get better and better. Her last CD Speak Now…she wrote all the songs and lyrics….um AWESOME. For girls she is very relatable and I feel that she is one person that has been in my head and in my thoughts without even knowing me. She has said in her lyrics what I would kill to tell some people. One of my favorites songs by her is on her latest CD gee this is hard…haha but is Dear John. Suppose to be about John Mayer…well if you knew the story around John…well John….this song is for you. You can hear her emotions in the song…and has had enough…Ugh. I love it…haha.
Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you.
Counting my footsteps praying the floor won't fall through... again.
My mother accused me of losing my mind,but I swore... I was fine.
You paint me a blue sky and go back and turn it to rain.
And I lived in your chess game but you changed the rules every day
Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone... tonight.
Well I stopped picking up and this song is to let you know why.
Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone.
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress cried the whole, way, home.I shoulda known.
Well maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame.
Or maybe it’s you and your sick need to give love then take it away
And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors who don't, understand.
And I'll look back in regret oh I ignored when they said, "Run as fast as you can"
Dear John,I see it all now that you're gone.
Don't you think i was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress cried the whole, way, home.
Dear John,I see it all now it was wrong.
Don't you think 19 is too young to be played by your dark twisted games when I loved you so?
I shoulda known.
You are an expert at sorry and keeping lines blurry
and never impressed by me acing your tests.
All the girls that you run dry have tired,
lifeless eyes cause you burned them out.
But I took your matches before fire could catch me so don't look now
I'm shining like fireworks over your sad empty town
Dear John,I see it all now that you're gone.
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress cried the whole way home.
I see it all now that you're gone.
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress wrote you a song.
You shoulda known.

Day 7- A Song That Reminds Me of a Certian Event
It is hard to pick one event...but this one...really important to me :)
My song is .... "I Got You" - Train
Michael and I went and saw them last year. I was really surprised cuz they put on a GREAT show. They are coming with Maroon 5 in August....Linz , Michael and I are going...well I hope too :) But last year at that time...Michael and I were going through a really blah spot in our friendship...it is a long story for another date but...this was the event where I knew I loved Michael. He is my best friend, he lets me be me like no one has ever before. He loves me like no one has ever. I am so blessed to have Him in my life, and I just really couldnt imagine life without him. ( Sara again thank you for introducing us...my life will never ever be the same...you and Jordan get your own table at the wedding :) hehe..) Don't you just wanna puke...haha...sorry but really I hear Train and I think about Michael and just how much I love him.
"Gimme lazy days with nothing better to do than singin oh black water keep on rolling while I wait for you I don't care if it rains, I'll be just fine, I'm leaving the ghosts behind until I Got You I got you you're the sun through my window, warming my skin Oh you,I got you ..."

Day 5 - A Song The Reminds You of Someone
There are so many songs that reminds me of SO many people...It was really hard to come up with a song...but after many song choices for this day, I picked.
The Only Exception- Paramore. and it reminds me of my love Michael <3. hehe.
When listening to this song I always think about Mihael...i'm thinking gee this is how i feel about him...and he tells me and this is how i feel about you :) - it is LOVE folks...hehe... i love him so. When we hear the song we just look at each other and smile :)
"Maybe I know somewhere
deep in my soul that love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways
to make it alone.
Or keep a straight face.
And I've always lived like this
keeping a comfortable distance.
And up until now I've sworn to myself
that I'm content with loneliness.
Because none of it was ever worth the risk.
Well you are the only exception..."

Day 4 - Song That Makes You Sad
It isnt like I seek out to listen to sad music, but somedays it is needed. The first song that came to mind was....
Broken - by Lifehouse.
These lyrics are crazy sad...and everytime I hear this song...I just wanna cry. It is a great song full of great emotion. I just love this song and this band.
"Broken"
The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time
I am here still waiting though i still have my doubts
I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain, there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
I'm barely holdin' on to you
The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead
I still see your reflection inside of my eyes
That are looking for a purpose, they're still looking for life
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
with a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain is there healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on , I'm holdin' on
I'm barely holdin' on to you
I'm hangin' on another day
Just to see what you throw my way
And I'm hanging on to the words you say
You said that I will be OK
The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone
I may have lost my way now, haven't forgotten my way home
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
with a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on I'm holdin' on , I'm holdin' on ,
I'm barely holdin' on to you
I'm holdin' on , I'm holdin' on , I'm holdin' on ,
I'm barely holdin' on to you

Day 3 - A Song That Makes Me Happy :)
This one was SO easy...really!! Call me old school or whatever...who doesn't love corny love songs?!
My choice for the Song that Makes me Happy....Silly Love Songs - Paul McCartney and Wings....
This song makes me SO happy! My family knows this so when this song comes on the radio ( yes they still play it...)they will call me to swtich the radio station and turn it on. I can't change the song when it comes on my ipod/iphone etc. I just love it...you should go and check it out too...
"You think that people would have had enough of silly love songs, I look around me and I see it isn't so..."

Day 2 - Your Least Favorite Song
This is hard one. I mean I love music...all kinda, shapes and forms. So when I was trying to find one song that I wasn't to fond of...only one song really came to my head...
Rockstar by Nickleback. ugh.
Yes we all deep down inside want to be rockstars but really I don't wanna hear a song about it. WHO CARES?! :) not this girl if I am a rockstar, it wont go like that.I would be SO much more classy than your "typical" rockstar. Come on who really needs 15 cars?! I can see like maybe 2 cars?! Who wants to live on the top of a hill?! Have you seen gas prices these days?! Who can aford that?! Even if you are a rockstar! I would be the same person I am today....but with an Outlet. One that I could use for the better and promote good things....So maybe I don't wanna be a rockstar now...im stressed out :) haha.
great now the song is in my head..."we all just wanna be big rockstars..."

Day One Song Challenge - Your favorite Song
Dear Blog, I am so sorry that I have not posted anything in sometime. I hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me. I will do better. Thanks so much. Love, Casey
Now that we have that out of the way, I see that two of my other friends are doing this "song challenge" thing....so why the heck not me? I love music like whoa...so lets do this...
Favorite Song - Um do you know how hard this is?! I like so many songs and listen to so much music I literally had to think about it, walk away from my desk, minimize my screen and come back to it. It isn't like I am getting graded for this...haha.
and the song is....Tripping Billies - Dave Matthews Band. It is the most random song, but i LOVE it! If you know me you know that I love Dave Matthews Band. Great songs, great lyrics, just a great time all around. The song was actually named by Dave Matthews wife ( well back then his girlfriend) he let her hear a recording of the song and she said..." that sounds like people are tripping...". She named my favorite song. I have seen Dave Matthew Band in concert more times than I can count, and they have only played this song once!
"So why would you care
To get out of this place
You and me and all our friends
Such a happy human race .... cuz were tripping billies."
