Hey fabulous followers! This is the most random assortment of songs, from different years, singers, styles and genres. But, I adore them all the same. Enjoy!
1. “Black Tears” by Jason Aldean
Jason Aldean decided to be super generous and release his new album “Night Train” the day before my birthday! Yes, in case you were wondering, my birthday is tomorrow, so happy early birthday to me :) Still have to really fully listen to the whole album, but this song IMMEDIATELY jumped out at me. It’s been on repeat since about 10:00 AM today. If he doesn’t release this as a single, I’ll be utterly shocked. It’s about a stripper, and it’s dynamite. YouTube
2. “Dance With Me” by Debelah Morgan
As part of my birthday, I’m sharing with you one of my all time favorite songs. This latin/soul/r&b/dance/tango infusion song is set to the same music as “Hernando’s Hideaway”, but with a modern twist and different lyrics. Told you I like all different types of music! Music Video
3. “50 Ways to Say Goodbye” by Train
Okay, I’m just going to come out and say this, I can’t believe that a Train song made this list. One day I found myself channel surfing the XM radio stations and stopped at this song, without seeing who the artist was. It got excited because an element of the music is reminiscent of Phantom of the Opera. I like musicals, it’s whatever. WARNING: this song is stupidly catchy! Music Video
4. “The Only Way I Know” by Jason Aldean featuring Luke Bryan and Eric Church
Three of my FAVORITE country male singers COLLABO STYLE?! Clearly, it’s destined to make this list. YouTube
5. “Bounce” by Calvin Harris featuring Kelis
This techno/dance song was all over the pre-game mix this past weekend. Drink every time they say bounce. Music Video
6. “Keep On” by Eric Church
I’m obsessed with Eric Church, everyone knows this. And, since it’s my birthday tomorrow, I’m sharing another one of my favorites with you! The cutting, witty lyrics are just a prime example of why Eric is the most nominated artist for the CMA Awards this year. Music Video
7. “The Quest” by Bryn Christopher
Slower, alterna-rock and pensive. It’s a reflective song with a punching, hard-hitting cut to it. Interpret as you will. Music Video
