My fellow Iowanite, Brian, tagged me:

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to.

Rise: American Hi-Fi’s best song on their The Art Of Losing album. To me these lyrics are saying that if you are in a place that basically sucks then its okay to leave to start a new life. Changes are good especially if you initiate them yourself.

I Hear Music: This Billie Holiday song reminds me of my High School days. I was part of the show choir. Yes, you can laugh. I’m secure with singing and dancing…! During my senior year we received a new instructor and she had everyone re-tryout for the choir. She selected 60 seconds of this song. We heard this song at least 1,000 or 2,000 times. After the tryouts and the rest of the semester passed people seemed to forget about the torture we went through. So I downloaded this version of the song and would play it back during a special moment. We had to meet at the school building at 5am the morning of one of the regional competitions to catch our bus. About an hour later my recording of the song started to play on my cd player at the highest level. I don’t think I made any friends that day… and might have lost a few!

Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous: Glenn Beck’s 2004 Theme song was based off of this song. I’m ashamed to say that I like the Good Charlotte version more than the one Glenn had!

Longhorn: This is the John Bradshaw Layfield theme song. He’s the WWE Smackdown Superstar by night and conservative/capitalist/radio show host by day. The song is very reminiscent to anything Aaron Copeland would have composed. There are no lyrics for me to link to.

Lonely Road of Faith: The first time I heard this song something clicked in my mind and I was different. The world was in turmoil, September 11th was a recent memory. This song brought it home that my life would forever change because of what happened and what is still to happen.

A Mighty Wind: Love the double entendres!

The Heart of Worship: It’s easy to forget, but at the end of the day It’s all about You, Jesus.

Now it’s my turn to tag someone..

Tyler!
