Sunny Sunday - YAY!

Another sing-a-song-a-Sunday!

Today has been sunny and warm and on days like this the world seems bright. So whilst messing around in the garden, trying to get my cat and the neighbours cat to like each (that was never going to happen!), doing a tonne of washing, tidying the kitchen and hoovering (do you see why I'm not a major fan of Sundays?) I've had a good mix of sunny songs!

I think I went with 15 of my favourites (from the deepest depths of my Ipod) last week so I'll do the same again on numbers.

1. Summer Jam - UDP (also on last weeks list!)
2. Fade (Grant Nelson Mix) - Kimblee (to skip the intro start at 1:25)
3. Flowers - SFA
4. Feel It - Black Eyed Peas (starts at 15s)
5. All Night - Damian & Stephen Marley
6. Lollipop - Mika
7. Voodoo Child - Rogue Traders
8. Heartbreaker - Will.i.am
9. Where the Party At - Jagged Edge
10. No, No, No - Eve ft Damian & Stephen Marley
11. Two Steps - Jimmy Cozier
12. Do It - Nelly Furtado
13. Straight Up - Chante Moore
14. TwentyFourSeven - Artful Dodger
15. Freak Like Me - Adina Howard

In a week or two we'll get on to what I'm actually listening to at the moment!!

Of note also, I had a major breakthrough on the sleep front last night! I didn't get to sleep until 3am...but didn't wake up until 12:30!!! Yup, I got up in time for lunch. I'm hoping my daylight saving jet lag is now over and I'm be spunky and on form from now on. No promises though.

Sing-Along-a-Sunday

As nothing much seems to happen in the blogosphere on a Sunday, but I still like to post every day, I'm going to start myself another little topical day! On a Sunday from now on I will be living my life through lyrics...sort of!

Sunday is always a bit of a nothing day, with the dread of working creeping over and the depressing duties of making sure I have work-suitable clothes clean and pressed, tidying and cleaning to be done, I ALWAYS ensure I have some great music to accompany the day!

This was scuppered a little when YouTube blocked access to premium music videos all because they couldn't reach an agreement with PRS. My opinion on this would be the same as many other music fans and contain a lot of bad language!!! Seriously YouTube. Pull yourself together!

Anyway, this has meant I've been delving into the archives of my Ipod / Itunes - which contains 6,528 tracks! Some classic, some horrendous, some mementos and a lot of funk! I'm a music junkie! I'd love to compile a soundtrack to my life - but there are way too many songs!

BTW, I cannot sing for anything! I can hum a decent tune and will quite happily belt out Elton's Benny and the Jets if I'm alone and I know the neighbours are out...but other than that all you will get from me is humming - and everyone seems to get this. Apparently it means I'm happy (I think I just pretend well)...I digress!

Anyway, I just thought I'd tell you a few of the little gems I have just discovered in a really dark cave-like place on my Ipod....hell yeah! I feel I need to get in the car and blast them out so everyone can hear them!

Be warned - I have a really ridiculously diverse taste in music!

First up was Damien Marly - Beautiful! I love heart Damien Marley muchly!!
2. Tiesto - Honey

3. Led Zeppelin - Babe I'm Gonna Leave You

4. Carly Simon - You're So Vain....I've never done karaoke but if I did this would be my song!!!

5. Lumidee - Uh Ooh (remix)

6. Linkin Park & Jay-Z - Numb / Encore

7. Basement Jaxx - Oh My Gosh

8. Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

9. Beverly Craven - Promise Me

10. Amerie - Take Control

11. Stunt - Raindrops

12. Youth Group - Forever Young

13. Candi Staton - You Got the Love

14 Justin Timberlake - Losing My Way

15. UDP - Summer Jam

I wonder what other little crackers are on there!! Role on next Sunday! x
