Musings in Music

I'm going to take you on a little tour through my iTunes. This is something very special, near and dear to my heart, if you will. Music is kind of everything to me. And when I say kind of, well I guess I mean kind of. Of course I have other loves in life, but I do believe music was one of my firsts. Let's start from the beginning:

I had the biggest crush on Billy Ray Cyrus. Embarrassing? No way. I loved his mullet and ripped jeans and my grandma would always tease me saying, "If I ever meet him, I'm going to sew up those holes in his pants." I was a little obsessed with Achey Breaky Heart. Next, 

In the third grade I was in the talent show. I line danced to Be My Baby Tonight- John Michael Montgomery (By myself). For the finale, I did the splits... real show stopper. Next, 

In the sixth grade, I sang Graduation (Friends Forever)- Vitamin C. Let me tell you, the whole crowd was in tears! And then proceeded to cry for the rest of the day. Except for Molly, of course... she was always one tough cookie. She just laughed at us for looking like big babies. 

Long story short I have always loved music. I listen to almost anything. I love oldies, country, 80s rock, acoustic anything, top 40s... you name it! Here is what I've been listening to lately:

Country:

Crazy Girl- Eli Young Band

Without You- Keith Urban

I'd Love to be Your Last- Gretchen Wilson

Rap/ Hip Hop:

Power- Kanye West
The Show Goes On- Lupe Fiasco
Triple Double- Girl Talk (mashup)

Everything Else:
