My Playlist

I got to noticing that everyone had these playlists on their blogs, and I thought I probably shouldn't put one on mine because I do sorta listen to some strange music. I didn't want to subject anyone who was reading my blog to my odd songs. Then I decided to go ahead. I didn't choose anything too awful but I did spend a lot of time choosing my songs. Each and every one of my songs is a representation of who I am. These songs are Julie. Some such as "Against the wind" by the great Bob Seger and "Love song" by Tori Amos are songs that I can just close my eyes and feel so connected to as I listen to them that I get chills. You know those songs, I think everyone has them. I have been a Bob Seger fan since I was a small child and I always think of my dad when I listen to him. " Love song" was originally by The Cure and played as I walked down the isle at my wedding. It is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. " If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough" by Roger Alan Wade reminds me of Tony. He says it is his theme song, and if you know Tony, you know he despises country music ,but loves this guy. Roger Wade is the cousin of Johnny Knoxville from the Jackass show. If you are ever in the mood for some kinda crude, sorta country, funny ass songs, look this guy up. "It's been awhile" by Staind, "Square One" by the awesome Tom Petty, "Joy" by Against Me, and "Down so long" by Jewel remind me of the obstacles I have overcome in my life. Anyone who knows me well enough knows what I am referring to. "The moon" by the Flobots just gets me bobbing my head along to the music and is my recently new found favorite band. I love to sit on the deck at night after the kids have gone to bed and look at the moon. I just sit out there almost every night and thank God for what I have and think about how grateful I am to still be in this moment in time in my life. " The moon" just captures that serenity for me. Finally, I have " We live" by Rehab. This songs reminds me to let go of my regrets and live for today. Well, I hope none of you find these songs completely awful and that maybe you will take the time to listen to my life if it was a musical.
