After silence,
that which comes nearest to expressing
the inexpressible is music. – Aldous Huxley
Music has always been a great place to escape no matter what kind of mood I’m in. When you think about it, there is just about a song for every situation you run into while you go through life- happiness, heartache, anger, sadness, inspiration, rage, and so on. Music has definitely helped me get through hard times, sad times, fun times, and crazy times. So today I dedicate this post to songs that make me feel good. Hope you’ve all had a wonderful week full of happiness, joy, and most of all love.
YOUNG THE GIANT- Islands
His voice is like butter…and this acoustic version of this song on the beach makes it even more beautiful.
GROUPLOVE- Tongue Tied
This is the song that makes me want to just jump up and down and dance to where ever I may be 🙂
KITO FEAT. REIJA LEE- Sweet Talk
When this tune comes on while I’m at the gym, I definitely get into a groove.
THE BLACK KEYS- Gold on the Ceiling
I’ve loved The Black Keys for a long time. This song triggers something in me- not sure what it is but I FEEL IT!
DEVOTCHKA- The Winner Is
This song is from the movie Little Miss Sunshine- which is a fantastic movie with a great message. It’s all instrumental- which is a nice change once in a while in my music library.
ELLIE GOULDING- Your Song
Her cover of this classic song is unique and beautiful. Her voice is so different from anything I’ve ever heard..
JUST JACK- Starz In Their Eyes
Thought I’d leave you with this final song- it’s a toe tapper that I get excited when it comes on when I’m on a good high while working out. There’s something about English “rappers” that I like way better than American ones.
I know The Black Keys, Just Jack, Ellie Goulding and of course, Young The Giant. The rest will be next fillers in my CD wallet. 😀 Thanks for the awesome music recommendations!
You are welcome! Glad you already have great taste in music 😉
I loved the movie Little Miss Sunshine. It had me in tears!
Totally on the same boat as you 🙂 great film!!
Great tunes to kickstart my day in the office 😉
Thx
You are quite welcome- enjoy the tunes!
I’ll have to have a listen since I pretty much like all music genres. The only ones I really can’t stand are hip hop and rap, mainly because of the language in the so-called lyrics.
No worries- I’m not a huge rap/hip hop fan either. Let me know which video you liked best 🙂
