Day 12 - A Song From a Band You Hate

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.
You shoulda known.
Don't you think I was too young?
You shoulda known.
