30 day song challenge: day 12

hate is a strong word, but i distinctly remember having an aversion to these guys back when they were popular.

nautilus atc

30 day song challenge: day 11

day 11 of the song challenge: a song by your favorite band

30 day song challenge: day 10

day 10 of the 30 day song challenge: a song that you can fall asleep to

i chose iron & wine's "upward over the mountain". this song definitely doesn't put me to sleep because it bores me, but it relaxes me. i remember listening to it a lot while flying and it would calm me so i could try to fall asleep. i LOVE iron & wine.

wow, still behind! 30 day song challenge: day 9

i just got back from a little vacay back home in hawaii and i'm STILL behind in the challenge, so i'm going to do 4 in a row so that i can catch up.

this one is day 9's song challenge: a song you can dance to.

got to see these guys in concert and we all definitely danced to this song.

30 day song challenge: day 8

oh no! i'm behind in the song challenge! so i will do two songs today to catch up. yesterday's category: a song you know all the words to.

i love the rx bandits so, so much and when i heard this song i made it a point to learn all the words to it. i still remember all of them!

they're currently on a west coast tour, so they better be on their way to seattle!
