Sunday Shuffle

July 19, 2009

1. Beautiful – Christina Aguilera: I loooove this song! I’ve always loved Christina and this song is just amazing. It’s inspiring and uplifting. And I love the melody.

2. As If – Blaque: I used to love this group! I think they were going for the TLC vibe. This song was for ‘Bring It On’ I think. And I loved that ‘N Sync had a part in the song too. ;)

3. Bethena – written by Scott Joplin, performed by Randy Kerber: I heard this first in ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ (it’s the song he learns on the piano). There are different interpretations to this song, both fast and slow, but I really like this one. It’s in the middle and emotion seems to really show in this one.

4. Just Around the Riverbend -Judy Kuhn: Ok. I will totally admit that I love my Disney movies. Both old and new, I’m still a big kid at heart. I prefer the older ones though because they seemed a little more focused on the music. They were actually part of the movie instead of just the background. The helped tell part of the story. This is one of my favs from ‘Pocahontas’. Judy Kuhn is just an amazing singer.

5. Apple Pie A La Mode – Destiny’s Child: Who does not love this song! :D Their melodies are amazing and the song is just so much fun! If I’m not mistaken all of the music is made by their voices, except for the percussion.

6. Long Distance – Brandy: This is from her latest album which I do love. I’ve missed her while she was on hiatus. And this song is a great one. I love that her voice is just so unique.

7. I’m Scared – Duffy: Duffy is just beyond awesome to me. I already had some of her songs from her album ‘Rockferry’ but I heard this one first in the ‘SatC’ movie. Her voice is just so unique but beautiful. And the emotion in this song is just amazing.

8. Hit the Road Jack – Ray Charles: I love this song! It’s the old school in me. It’s just so much fun to listen to and you can’t but sing along to the chorus. Or maybe it’s just me. lol

9. Exhale (Shoop, Shoop) – Whitney Houston: This is, of course, from the amazing movie ‘Waiting to Exhale’. This is while Whitney was still in her prime. I love the message in the song and her wonderful vocals.

10. Bye, Bye, Bye – ‘N Sync: And of course it’s not a Sunday Shuffle without our favorite boys. And I swear I’m doing this on purpose. It’s all them! :D

July 5, 2009

1. Just A Dream – Carrie Underwood: I love Carrie in general but this song is just amazing. The story behind is just so sad and compelling. I loved the video for this one. All of her songs are like that.

2. If You Seek Amy – Britney Spears: No matter what anyone says I will love Britney’s music. She may lose her mind occasionally but her music is always on point. It’s catchy and fun. :D This song is just so funny to listen to. I’m constantly amazed by what they will let play on the radio. lol

3. These Words (I Love You, I Love You) – Natasha Bedingfield: I love her! Her sound is just so unique and amazing! And this song is just so fun to listen to and sing along with.

4. Here for the Party – Gretchen Wilson: Gretchen is just so fun to listen to. I love the pace to this song and her lyrics are fun to sing along to. I love this one in the car. :D

5. Dirty Dancing – Black Eyed Peas: This one was from the ‘Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights” soundtrack. I love the Latin undertones to this song. Great song to dance to.

6. Leavin’ – Jesse McCartney: I love his music right now. His sound is much more mature of course. Great beats and lyrics. I like the R&B undertones in his music instead of the pure pop of his older stuff.

7. I Am Not My Hair – India Arie Feat Akon: I love the message behind this song. Being true to yourself and not letting the physical define you.

8. Confessions II – Usher: I loved this whole album from Usher. This song was just great especially with the video. I loved the beat and the fact that seemed a bit autobiographical considering his break up with Chili at the time.

9. Just Got Paid – ‘NSync: It’s ‘NSync, do I really need to say more? ;)

10. Complicated – Robin Thicke: I loooooove him! He is just too cute and his voice is just amazing! I love a man that plays piano. When I first bought this album I had this song on repeat all the time. :D

June 21, 2009

This is a new type of blog entry that I’m hoping will make a weekly appearance granted that I don’t get lazy or forget. Both of which are completely possible scenarios. lol Basically I’m going to push the shuffle button on my iPod and list the first ten songs that play for me, no matter how embarrassing. (BTW, sorry this was so late in the day. I thought I published it but apparently I only saved it as a draft. :/ But from now on I plan to post this earlier on Sundays.)

1. Bills, Bills, Bills – Destiny’s Child: This was during that big drama with changing members and kicking people out. But this album was awesome. :D Gotta love their harmonies. I miss the original group. I have nothing against Michelle but the original foursome was amazing. And this video was cute.

2. Glamorous – Fergie: I love Fergie! She is awesome both by herself and with the Black Eyed Peas. I love this song, both the lyrics and the beat. Perfect car riding music.

3. Low (feat. T. Pain) – Flo Rida: I love this song! Flo Rida is just great and T.Pain is always good with his collabs. Another great song to drive around to.

4. Tearin’ Up My Heart – ‘N Sync: I love ‘N Sync! Even if they aren’t together anymore. I love their old music and still listen to it. I loved them more than I liked the Backstreet Boys and totally stopped listening to the Backstreet Boys when I discovered ‘N Sync. :D They were so adorable! Especially JT.

5. Do Your Thing – ‘N Sync: Ditto. (And the fact that two songs by them came up back to back is really funny.)

6. Wouldn’t It Be Loverly (My Fair Lady) – Julie Andrews: This is my favorite song from the musical. As much as I like Audrey Hepburn I would have loved to have seen Julie Andrews in that movie. Her voice was just amazing and had such a great range.

7. Don’t Forget to Remember Me – Carrie Underwood: I’ve loved her since American Idol. I really wanted her to win from the beginning. Her voice is just so pure and strong. And her songs are great to listen to.

8. There’s Hope – India Arie: I loved this whole album by her. It’s very uplifting and inspiring to listen to. I like to listen to it when I’m feeling low.

9. Everybody’s Fool – Evanescence: Probably my favorite song by them. I just love Amy’s voice. Their videos were always great too.

10. Rehab – Rihanna: I’ve loved her from the beginning. This song is amazing and the video for this song is just so hot. JT needs to be in every music video. :D

Well, that’s my first list. As you can see my music is fairly eclectic. I like all different kinds. Also, I’m taking this as a time to take music recommendations as well. If there is something or someone you think I might like just let me know in comments. I’d love some new music to listen to.
