There are some songs that just call out to me to play at a high volume and sing along with. The singing usually only happens when I'm alone in the car--nobody wants to hear that, I promise. A song I like doesn't have to have a special meaning to me, but occasionally it will. Sometimes, I like it simply because it makes me happy.
Along with the two songs I mentioned on Monday, here are a few more that I thought of this week:
- Anything by Audioslave--seriously, this band rocks. Credit my hubby for introducing me to them. Sadly, the band has disbanded, but not before I saw them perform live.
- Wanted Dead or Alive--Bon Jovi classic; how can you not love this song?? Possibly my most favorite song ever in the history of songs.
- Harder to Breathe--Maroon 5; Oh, I don't even know what to say. Fun song, good lyrics, music is awesome turned up loud. Just try it!
- Good Directions--Billy Currington; it's just a good, happy country song.
- Shameless--the Garth Brooks version; just try not to sing along. I dare you.
- Gives You Hell--All-American Rejects; listen to the lyrics. Really, who doesn't feel this way about an ex?
I asked my readers to leave comments with some of their favorite "play it loud" or "driving fast" songs. Here's what they said--
- Sweet Child 'O Mine; GnR classic. Solid contribution, Adrienne.
- Always Something There to Remind Me; Naked Eyes. Totally reminds me of all the 80s movies I love. Good one, Jody.
Anyone else want to add to the list? I can come back and make edits. Maybe we can make a mix tape when we're finished...
