Lets Boogy

   I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend with family and friends, munching on candy and goodies of the sort. Now lets take on this new week with a positive attitude and a hopeful heart. You know the drill, lets kick this monday off with some oldies, but goodies.


The Beatles- Here comes the sun

"Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
little darling,it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right."

   There really isn't much to this song, as far as lyrics go, but it's such a happy song. It's exciting after a long, cold winter, of jackets and shivering, for the sun to finally come out and warm the earth. It's the perfect introduction to summer, and this is of my favorite beatles songs.

Fleetwood Mac-The Chain 

"And if you don't love me now

You will never love me again

I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain."

   This band will forever have a special place in my heart. I'm appreciative for many things my parents have exposed me to, this introduction being one of my favorite. Stevie Nicks talent never ceases to amaze me, her lyrics and usage of a scarf on her microphone when she sings is so inspiring, i feel like a gypsy soul when I listen to them play. The rhythms and harmonies make my heart happy and reminds me of good times with my family.

Cracker-Low(Like being stoned)

You know, the song that goes "I'll be with you girl, 

like being low ,hey hey hey like being stoned."

 You don't have to partake, or have ever taken interest in drugs to know the feeling you get when being around certain people, that "friend high". I like how chill this song is, perfect for summer night bonfires.

Ryan Adams-Come Pick me up

"I wish you'd make up my bed 

so I could make up my mind. 

Try it for sleeping instead 

maybe you'll rest sometime 

I wish I could."

   I'm a sucker for harmonicas, but with that aside, Ryan Adams is a truly talented gentleman. His soulful lyrics and rock and roll voice box are very charming, as well as relatable and relaxing.

Alanis Morissette- One hand in my pocket

"What it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
'cause I've got one hand in my pocket
and the other one is giving the peace sign."

   My absolute favorite female artist. I grew up listening to Alanis Morissette, and appreciated her lyrics so much more when I was older and could relate to them. Jagged little pill will forever be one of my all time favorite albums, i don't think there is a song on the album that I don't like, or have got tired of. She's still at it too, her most recent C.D., Flavors of Entanglement, is a different type of style for her, but just as wonderful in lyrics and soul.

Beck- Que Onda Guero

"Dirty borracho says 'que putas!'
Andale, Joto, your popsicle's melting
Run better run, da doo run run." (LOL)

   Beck really interest me. First off, the music is extremely catchy, the lyrics are out there, and crack me up, and the beats are funky, but fun. Some of my other favorite Beck songs are Lost Cause and Go it alone. Oldies but goodies for sure!
