I'm supposed to list my seven favorite songs for this summer. This shouldn't be hard, as I LOVE music (as if it's not apparent when you visit my blog & here the tunes strike up as soon as my page loads).
What could be hard is narrowing that down to seven. But I'll give it a go!:
- You're Gonna Miss This -- Trace Atkins (not only the iTunes purchases proceeds benefit FEAST, our allergy group, but the words make my eyes water...our kids are growing up too fast!)
- Lose My Soul -- Tobymac (w/ KirkFranklin + Mandisa [remember her from Idol?]) This one can get you up dancing in your church shoes
- Ballad for My One True Love -- Mason Jennings (on my playyer, down there [insert down arrow here]) This song makes me feel like I'm sipping countrytime lemonade under a shade tree with Hot Hubs + our 2 cutes babes
- Quiet Town -- Josh Rouse (this song makes me wish I lived in the city. and props to anyone who whistles in their song.)
- Mercy -- Duffy. I'm sad that some tv show used this song to promote their new episodes coming this fall (not that I would know since we got rid of our tv), as I only like things (names, colors, styles, songs, etc) that aren't popular or 'over-used'. ANYWAY, what a fun song that makes me want to do the backstroke. It also makes me want to do that one thing like cat eyes that I once saw catwoman doing while dancing on the original batman & robin show back in the 60s (clearly a re-run I was watching, as I wasn't even a gleam in my parents' eyes in the 60s).
- Down to Earth -- Peter Gabriel. First of all, who doesn't love Peter? And who doesn't love his last name? I love it, so does Gabe. This song is from Wall*E. Which we saw w/ my nieces while they were home for a visit. And I miss them. So anything that makes me think of them is a winner.
- Anyone Else But You -- Moldy Peaches. This totally sounds like something I would make up which I'm known to do quite often, when I find myself singing something & don't know the words.
Just kidding.
How about, if you want to do this on your blog, you can! Sound fair? And if you decide to, why don't you comment here that
