30 Day Music Challenge: Day 03
September 6th, 2010 Posted 10:28 pm
A song that makes you happy: I have a ton of these. Two songs that really make me happy are actually from the television show The Backyardigans. First off, I really love the theme song. It instantly puts me in a good mood whenever I hear it. My favorite episode of the series is called “The Yeti” and in that episode there’s a song called the “Yeti Stomp” that’s pretty much filled with pure awesomeness. I can’t be sad when I watch that episode and hear that song. It’s the best!
30 Day Music Challenge: Day 02

Your least favorite song: I don’t really have one of these. There are songs that I hear and go “WTH”, but then I never bother listening to them again so they don’t really stick in my mind. If I dislike a song I avoid it at all costs. The only song that comes to my mind right now that I dislike is “It Kills Me” by Melanie Fiona. I really like her and she has a great voice, but that song is trash. And the funny thing is that when you first hear it you don’t know it’s trash because her voice is so great and the melody is nice. But once you start hearing the words you can see how lame it actually is.
I couldn’t imagine singing something so pathetic. Lyrics like “I know you messin’ around, but who the hell else is gonna hold me down” makes this song lame to me. Who sings about knowing a man is cheating on them but still wanting to have their babies. Smh. And if he’s cheating on you, is he really holding you down? Such a waste of talent. The song is catchy though!

Your favorite song: I don’t actually have one favorite song. There are songs that I really love and can listen to them over and over again, but I don’t know if I’d be able to choose one out of all of them. I also go through a lot of phases. A song will be my favorite for a few weeks and then I’ll move on. But my favorite song would probably be something by Mariah Carey. Last.fm says my most listened to song is “Touch My Body” by Mariah Carey, but that has never been a favorite. When it came out I was just so happy Mimi was back that I listened to it over 4,000 times. I really can’t stand it much now though. 
Some of my favorite songs of the moment are…
- Alicia Keys – Un-thinkable (I’m Ready)
- Sara Bareilles – King Of Anything
- Sara Bareilles – Hold My Heart
- Eminem – Love The Way You Lie (feat. Rihanna)
- Joel Auge – Miracle Love
- Corinne Bailey Rae – Enchantment
- Mariah Carey – Mine Again
- Lisa Lavie – Need You Now (feat. David Sides)
- Kathryn Scott – Come Back Home (feat. Brian Doerksen)
- Jazmine Sullivan – Holding You Down (Goin’ In Circles)

I’ve been thinking about doing one (or a few) of those 30 Day Challenges that they’re always posting on Tumblr. I don’t really use my Tumblr enough to be motivated to post stuff there, so I’m thinking about posting some stuff on my personal sites. The music and movie challenges are the two that I have my mind on for this site since I mostly post random and entertainment related stuff here. We’ll see though!
Oh, I was listening to Pandora and Michael Bublé’s version of “Feeling Good” came on and that made me want to listen to (almost) every other version of the song and I quite enjoyed doing that, so I’m posting my two favorite versions for your listening pleasure!
Nina Simone’s
Check out Muse’s version on YouTube since they disabled embedding. Smh!
