Did you love that show on Vh1? I sure did. I watched it so much – my favorites were the Faith Hill, Shania Twain and Boy George episodes. Oh and I loved the Def Leppard one too. Funny I mention the two country singers and I’m not a huge country fan…
Anywho, I was sad when they quit airing the show but hey — Vh1 Classics still airs it. And I watched The Genesis episode. Very interesting. Also made me write down a few song titles so I could add them to my playlist.
For whatever reason, my brother hates Phil Collins. Which means my oldest son hates Phil Collins too. I don’t get it. Now there are some Phil Collins/Genesis songs that make me cringe but there are also a few songs that I really like. Like this one — which I forgot about.
The lyrics are good – I found them quite fitting for a book I’m going to continue working on here soon. Had that other project land in my lap that occupied me but I’m almost done. Then I must focus on end of school year stuff (stresses me right the heck out) and then…bring on summer!

Since it was my husband’s birthday we did something special. First we went out to dinner at one of our favorite restaurants. Then we went to a concert! We never go to concerts.
First up was this band:
They were good! Never heard of them before but I did recognize one of their songs – heard it on the radio before. Jeez, I’m getting old.
Next up was this band:
Oh, they were really good. I love Lifehouse! Though they didn’t sing my absolute favorite song of theirs, they’re forgiven. They write the best songs! They sound great live too.
Finally this band came on:
What a show! Three great bands, a sold out crowd. The place was packed and everyone was going nuts. Awesome light show, awesome music, we had such a great time! My husband said it was truly a memorable birthday. Can’t ask for more than that right?

I still heart Adam Lambert even if he did offend all of America with his antics on the AMA show. I felt his performance was a little over the top, like he wanted to scream at everyone, “IN YO’ FACE!” but I forgive him. The boy wants to shock and stay on everyone’s lips and he sure did that now didn’t he?
Here’s his sexxx-ay video for For Your Entertainment. This is not my favorite song on the album. It’s okay but it doesn’t make me go OMG that was HAWT. But the video’s fun and he’s pretty…
I stumbled upon his album today at Amazon for a super price of $3.99. I thought that was a deal. Considering I had a coupon code to save $3 on a MP3 download, I got his album for a mere 99 cents.
The coupon code is MP34FREE and it expires on Monday, November 30. A free $3 code – RUN to Amazon now, people. It’s just too awesome to pass up. I *heart* free.
Yeah, that’s awesome.

It’ll be announced Monday and let me tell you, it’s a good one. Like involving jewelry and we all love jewelry, right?? Come back Monday and check it out!
I’ll leave you with my latest favorite song. Oh, it’s an oldie but a goodie. I had no clue it was so old – like almost 30 years old! Damn it I’m getting old. I remember seeing this video on MTV waaaaaaay back in the day. Back when MTV actually played music videos and nothing else. That was a long time ago.
It’s by Split Enz – One Step Ahead. I stumbled upon it last weekend while searching for another song by Split Enz. I realized I liked this one way better. Enjoy! Don’t judge if you hate it. It’s pure 80s music and I’m sorry, but I’m a product of the 80s and proud of it. Ha!

I love this song so much by Kings of Leon. Just wanted to share.
The official video’s embedding has been disabled. Boo! But this is still a good version. Enjoy and happy weekend!

Back in the day when I worked outside the home, me and my friend/coworker Marisa would listen to some streaming “radio” station on the internetz in our office. It played super cool, mellow music with all sorts of songs I loved, loved, loved. And was never able to find. Sigh. This was back in like 2001/2002 when iTunes wasn’t making my life easier so I just dealt with it.
And thought of those songs off and on ever since. Stumbling upon one here and there throughout the years, last night I hit freaking paydirt. I snapped up at least ten songs and this one below is my absolute favorite:
There are four or five videos for this song on YouTube. Weird man, I have no clue which one is “official,” but this one has a Matrix type feel to it. I lurve this song. It’s six minutes but to me, well worth a listen.
I love when I get stuck on a song. I love finding lots of good songs. Music puts me in a good mood.
What’s your favorite song right now?
