Elastic Heart- SIA
No matter the song, SIA will get stuck in your head. I dare you to listen and not find yourself singing it later.

The Party Line- Belle and Sebastian 

I Want To See You Dance- Avid Dancer

I can't place my finger on why I really like this song but I do. 

Beautiful Day- Joshua Radin

This song has recently been released with it featuring Sheryl Crowe. Not that The Sheryl Crowe version was bad, but this version is the winner for me. 

Immortal- Fall Out Boy

Sunday Sounds on a Monday

Sunday came and went.

Please forgive me and accept a Monday tune.

Maroon 5- Sex and Candy

ah, Marcy Playground. 

Maroon 5 covering Marcy Playground...I can barely handle this! 

so...true story.

In 1998 I was a 12 year old free-spirit who loved Marcy Playground and my disco ball. I can remember many nights I would listen to the self titled album with my disco ball spinning away. This is the era where my true love of music really began. I remember spending so many nights with music playing and staring at reflections from the disco ball endlessly spinning. Thank you mom, for the music and for the disco ball.

2014

2014 was an amazing year for me.

It started out with a bang!

 My best friend ask me to marry him on our anniversary!  

We added a new addition to our little family.

sweet..er..sometimes sweet Luna 

[Joey still loves his little sister]

somewhere this year, in what seems like the blink of an eye, our kitten became a cat

A Tornado hit my mom's house.  Now, this does not fall under the "this was amazing" file, but being able to see a community really come together and help was amazing. It definitely restored my faith in people. 

I'd also like to brag about having the best friends ever who also came and helped clean up.  

Many adventures took place this year.

Josh, Eric & I traveled to Atlanta for the weekend opening of Wish I Was Here

[oh, and geek out moment! Zach Braff favorited Josh's tweet!]

A HUGE dream of mine was marked off of my bucket list!

I was able to see Garth Brooks live!! 

I married my best friend. 

& had a kick-ass honey moon in Tennessee!

Bring it on, 2015.

This song is so infectious. I'd like to think that Meredith Grey would approve of this song for a thirty second dance party session.

The Mixed Tape- Jack's Mannequin
I woke up with this song in my head today.

"It's not always easy to do the right thing. Like putting somone else's feelings first for a change. Even if it goes against what you really want. Of course, there's always ramifications...Even if you do the right thing, there's no guarantee it'll turn out the right way."
