Playlist Thursday – Epic

12 Sep

Let’s break out the big songs. The epic ones that will live on forever (good or bad). The anthems, the songs that go down in history as “the song of your generation.”

The rules:

Something Old: Songs that are at least 5 years old. (I know that isn’t too long to be considered old, but music turnover happens quickly.)
Something Current: Songs that have been released within the past year.
Something to Consider: This is the wild card category. Feel free to list any song: old, current, guilty pleasure, underground, whatever.

Something Old:

Artist: Baz Luhrmann

Title: Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen)

Side Note: This song was really popular when I was in high school – as much as we hated it – it was an anthem we rolled to.

Quotable: “Don’t worry about the future”

CLICK HERE

Something Current:

Artist: Tim McGraw

Title: If You’re Reading This

Side Note: My husband is military and most of my “family” is too. I can’t hear this song and not cry.  It is the anthem that we never want to play.

Quotable: “I won’t be able to see the birth of our little girl”  This was a legitimate fear I had.

BTW – I am in tears just writing this and I bet you will be too if wait to see the end of the video.

Playlist Thursday – Most Appearances

We are creatures of habit and when we find an artist that we like, chances are they make a repeat appearance on the playlist. What artist appears the most on your playlist? We can bend the rules a bit, list one of their oldest and one of their newest ON YOUR PLAYLIST and let the “consider” be a random song or your favorite.

**Is anyone else having problems linking YouTube???**

Something Current:

Artist: Timbaland & Justin Timberlake

Playlist Thursday – Local Flavor

16 Aug

So I am going to go with Texas local as it is a local band that is just awesome! They are the only real “local” band that I listen to and I love the,. They remind me of my friend Tiffany in Texas and my one of my dearest friends Jesse Ray. Please give them a listen and as always – please hop over to Pavement Runner’s Page that is the main listing of those playing along!

Without Further Delay – Here is the Casey Donahew Band!

Something Old: These will be songs that are at least 5 years old

Title: Stockyards

Side Note: They do not really have video’s because they are really just  local band and which in Texas is still big 🙂

Quotable: “I drank my first beer, I cried my first tears on the corner of North and Main”

Something Current: These will be songs that have been released within the past year – and they actually got their very first video on CMT within the last year!

Title: Double-Wide Dream

Side Note: This was done on their land and I believe it was at a family member’s trailer. His wife is the blonde in here and from my friend Jesse Ray – she is a feisty girl….

Quotable: “She’s the welcome mat to my home, sweet home”

Something to Consider: These will be songs that are not typically heard on the radio and may be by artists you’ve never heard of or considered running to. This is the wild card category, can be old or current.

Title: Stay

Side Note: This is totally something to listen to…so good and of course what is a country band that doesn’t have an awesome sad song?

Quotable: “There’s a secret on the telephone tonight”

As I did a couple weeks ago – I have some extra credit because I sincerely love this band….I really wish I could see them live once….just once…so until then I will listen to them on iTunes and YouTube…. *sigh*

Title: White-Trash Story

Side Note: If our #3 is a boy Nick wants to have a Jr – and then call him Deuce….just listen…

Quotable: “You know those had to be – the coolest things I’d seen”

Playlist Thursday – POP

9 Aug

Okay – with a theme of POP how can you do anything other than:

I am so sad that my kids won’t know him except through what I show them. I still think he could sing and dance like no one else.

Alright – Here it is again – Playlist Thursday brought to us by Pavement Runner

Here is the format:
