So Music selection is big with me! Other people may not be interested much in the music I like, but well we all have our own tastes. But last night I finally loaded the 50 dollar gift card my dad got me and went into a late night frenzy! Before having enough music to nod off to I had downloaded quite a few Dido songs. Including Sand in My Shoes, White Flag, Stoned, Who Makes You Feel, Mary's in India, Life For Rent, Don't Leave Home and of course Thank You, Here With Me and No Angel! These songs were not enough to still my heart! Along with Dido I also sought out Evanescence's Open Door album. This album brought me to four songs by none other than Sarah McLachlan! These four being Elsewhere, Dear God, I Will Remember You and a song I have fallen in love with is her rendition of Rainbow Connection. Going with the flow of melodic tunes I went for the cover songs of Boyce Avenue. Songs that they cover I find have added a beautiful flow that makes these covers vastly different from the originals, for the most part. The covers I purchased were: No One/Tattoo/Where is the Love Medley (Alicia Keys, Jordin Sparks, Black Eyed Peas), Disturbia (Rihanna), Circus/Just Dance (Britney Spears, Lady Gaga), Love Lockdown (was it Kanye?), Everything (Vertical Horizon). And to bring back two of the greatest songs of the late 90's I had to download Closing TIme (Semisonic) and Sex and Candy (Marcy Playground)! These songs provided a nice sleep mix! And that is not where my iTunes splurge ends! Upon waking up I proceeded to buy Lisa Loeb's Stay, and Mercy and Stop by Duffy as I love songs that are quite reminiscent of the burlesque era! Now that I am near the last bit of money left on my iTunes I am now nearing the most up to date music purchase... Not many people I know listen to her but I fell in love with Alexz Johnson's music during her years starring in the Canadian tv series 'Instant Star"! And waaaay back in March she released a new album called Voodoo... How it has taken me THIS long to have downloaded it and give it a listen. I knew I would love it, so it was an impulse purchase that I had to take! And so far I am not disappointed! The songs are slightly different than all her other songs previously released, So far, it is also appealing to that light feeling I have associated with the burlesque era. Can I say HAPPY! This day is going GREAT!
