Does anyone remember that song, Music Is My Boyfriend? (that video is ridiculous. Is that Portuguese at the end?) Probably one of my favorite songs to work out to. And Breanna and I may or may not have just made up our own lyrics to it too.
Um, so pretty much if fate decided to be my friend, and if it was actually possible, and if it wasn't against my religion, I would be married to music forever. I'm pretty sure we would be extremely happy together. Really though, as most people know, I am beyond obsessed with music. I don't think it's wrong, in fact I think it's right. So, you will come to find out that most of my posts will consist of me discussing music. (That's really all I care to discuss on a regular basis, in life or on the internet) So deal with it, and (hopefully) love it. (I love using parenthesis.)
So over the past little while I have been listening to mostly a ton of Led Zeppelin. The Lemon Song, are you kidding me? GENIUS. I might pass out, I seriously can't handle it. Also, tons of Brand New. Yeah that's right, that somewhat emo band I used to listen to all the time when I was 19. They are probably the only band from that genre that I still listen to on a regular basis, because I think they are freaking legit. And they are one of my favorite bands. His voice kind of makes me want to die. Example: "Bed" The last 20 seconds of that song also make me want to die, incredible. I understand why some people don't like this band, but at the same time I don't. Really, just listen to 5 of their songs and then try to tell me that you can't find anything you love about them. You won't be able to do it. Their drumming and guitar should win you over, plus their incredible use of silence. I love them. Maybe it's a little too screamy at times for you, but you have to give them credit for the way their music build and gets so intense! "You Stole" (5:32-5:46 personal favorite part) and "Limousine" (Most tragic song ever. Read this.) being perfect examples. The way they create emotion in their music blows my mind. Their song "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot" is one of the only songs that actually literally makes me cry almost every time, and I'm not a girl that cries over that many things (just dumb boys) so that is saying a lot. Also, this band always make me want to play Dr. Mario (I am always wanting to play Dr. Mario, so I guess that's not saying much) because I can't tell you how many hours Kelly H. and I used to spend during the cold Provo winter nights not doing our homework and instead listening to endless Brand New while playing Dr. Mario at Glenwood. Such dear memories.
Post Script: If you work out at all it's imperative that you check out some songs by Girl Talk. Some of the best mashups ever. Radiohead, Jay Z, Earth Wind and Fire, Mariah, The Police etc etc. Out of Control. I don't like some of the raps that are used, but I just skip those. Such good work out music!!
