YOu have a great playlist here!
Everyone should make a list like this! We all have songs that stop and make us weep, for whatever reason. I am so thankful for music in my life! Thanks for posting.
This was a great idea...I may just have to steal it from you!!
I am off to itunes too! Have a blessed day.
I love how music can evoke such strong emotions...over and over again!! One of the many reasons I love all kinds of music!
The Promise makes me sad, too, but I don't think it's because of a specific memory. It's just sad in and of itself, I think!
However there are plenty of songs that totally evoke certain memories and feelings.
Cool post. :)
this is a great list. I especially like the ones on your smile list.
I love how a song you hear brings back memories of that time.
:~D
Boy am I feeling old! I don't know most of these songs!
It is a rare occasion that I meet a fellow fan of Beautiful South. Love it!
As for Suzanne Vega, I so want to email you about this. There's a very funny story about a Suzanne Vega concert I want to share with you, it it's not too awkward. (You know what I mean?)
I have songs that I love but I can never remember what they are until I hear them...does that make sense??
Great list!
I have so many songs that take me back that I need to buy. If only I had millions of dollars ;)
Good Post. :)
I am a HUGE HUGE music lover. I associate music to almost everything. This is a GREAT post!!
That's awesome! Don't you love it when those songs with special meaning come on the radio? Maybe I'll go to iTunes too!
I love music. I wish I had a sound track to my life. The iPod helps that, but sometimes I'll hear a song on the radio and think "this needs to be on my soundtrack." I rarely go buy it, though. I've thought about carrying around a notebook, so that I can jot down the songs that I want to live my life to. Then maybe I could make a master playlist.
Really, everyone SHOULD have a life playlist! Love your taste in music.
I like this idea. Music is such an amazing thing. The way it works with our brains and emotions. My list would look entirely different. I think maybe I'll give it a looksy.
What an awesome list!! I will have to sit down and write mine down. love them!
I love this post. It really shows how much you love music and how much a part of your life it is.
Great songs - I swear the soundtrack to my life is pretty freakin sweet.
I am one of those people that associate major life events with music. And hearing a certain song will take me right back to a place!
Love it :)
