30 Day Music Challange - Day 7

Happy Easter dear blog readers! I hope everyone is enjoying their day, don't eat too many peeps!

Day 7 of the 30 day music challenge is a song that reminds you of an event. This is another that I could go on and on with but I'll keep it to just 2 for today. Enjoy!

Set it Off by Audioslave
This song reminds me of a very interesting night when I was in college. I was in the barracks on the base where my husband (fiance at the time) was living.  I am not going to go into detail because well...I'm not sure I want to air my dirty laundry on here yet. Let's just say it involved me, a couple very large Marines, a 2 story beer bong and trouble unfolded from there... ;)


The Dynamo of Volition by Jason Mraz
This song reminds me of my first day of culinary school. I was nervous and excited and I listened to this the whole morning while I was getting ready and driving there.

30 Day Music Challange - Day 6

Day 6 is a song that reminds you of somewhere.

Hang Me Up to Dry by Cold War Kids
This song reminds me of the beach in San Diego. Oh how I miss that place!

Stellar by Incubus
This one reminds me of the barracks on MCAS Miramar. I used to live in my hubby's barracks room (WAY against the rules) before we got married. We had some really good times and some really good friends.

Blister in the Sun by The Violent Femmes
This song reminds of one of my high school jobs. I worked in a sandwich shop called Roly Poly. We used to play this in the kitchen after the boss left!
This was the picture on the tee shirts that we had to wear!

30 Day Music Challange - Day 5

Day 5 of the 30 day music challenge is a song that reminds you of someone. There are so many songs that remind me of so many people. I'll share a few.

Rockin' the Suburbs by Ben Folds
This song reminds of a good friend from high school. We used to get in her tiny little white Geo Tracker and drive all the back roads with the top off, drinking coffee, singing and just hanging out. We would drive out to this cliff where you could watch the stars at night (like a make out point, if you will) but during the day it wasn just a nice place to hang out.

Summertime by Kenny Chesney
This song reminds me of my BFF. We would drive out to the lake with our feet hanging out the car windows.

Faith by George Michael
This song reminds me of my mom. One morning before school she turned it on in our living room and we danced around in our jammies. I think that was when I really realized that my mom was really cool!

Last one...I promise
If I had a Milion Dollars by Barenaked Ladies
This one reminds me of a few people. My husband and my BFF and a sweet little boy who means the world to me.

Sorry, that was a lot of songs.

30 Day Music Challange - Day 4

I am slowly making my way through this music challenge and I am enjoying it mostly because I am music junkie and I love sitting here and listening to good music trying to decide which song to include. So, Day 4 of the 30 day music challenge is a song that makes you sad.

Brick by Ben Folds Five...it's sad, it makes me sad...enough said


Another song that makes me sad is Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton

30 Day Music Challange - Day 3

Day 3 of the 30 day music challenge is a song that makes you happy. I am not sure why, but this song always makes me smile and it brightens my day.


Also, the song Sex Therapy by Robin Thicke makes me terribly happy. :)

30 Day Music Challange - Day 2

Day 2 is my least favorite song. I have never really thought about this before, I mean...if I don't like the song, I don't listen to it and I don't usually give it another thought. I am not sure that I truly hate a song, but this one annoys me and makes me giggle. The lyrics just make me cringe a little.

Brad Paisley - Check you for ticks


I couldn't find the real music video so this will have to do.
