I decided to follow Lydia’s example and post some random songs I have been listening to. Of course my list is not nearly as organized as hers. I know some bloggers have a section in their blog that displays little album covers of their favorite albums. Unfortunately I’m not that creative or talented, hence this post. Feel free to insult my musical tastes in the comments section. Also, this is not organized or comprehensive, just some random songs I like.

  • Burn Out Bright -Switchfoot. This is a really good song. The beat is catchy, and the lyrics are good.
  • American Dream -Switchfoot. This song by Switchfoot has a catchy beat as well. And the lyrics are pretty good.
  • Momentum -Toby Mac. This song is a little heavy and it’s lyrics are weak, but is a catchy song.
  • Dare You to Move -Switchfoot. A classic.
  • Who I Am Hates Who I’ve Been -Relient K. I don’t have much Relient K, but this song is pretty good. The lyrics are interesting if you stop and anylize them.
  • Another One Bites the Dust -Queen. Yes they are a gay band. Yes they are an old band. This song is pretty good though. I don’t agree with the lyrics though. Of course you also have to listen to the Weird Al version “another one rides the bus” as well.
  • Message in a Bottle -The Police. Don’t make fun of me. They did write some good music. And I don’t usually listen to old stuff, only sometimes.
  • Barely Listening -Pilot Speed. I don’t know what to think of the lyrics, but the song is catchy. It’s an iTunes freebie, if you haven’t guessed.
  • Noticed -Mute Math. A pretty good song.
  • Dead Man (Carry Me) -Jars of Clay. The new Jars of Clay stuff is more rock type. I like it – I didn’t really like their old stuff.
  • Revolutionary -Chopin. This song is amazing. I wish I could play it on the piano.
  • Lifesong -Casting Crowns. The lyrics are good.
  • Elanor Rigby -The Beatles. This song is old, but pretty good. The lyrics are interesting to say the least.
  • Daloula -A random arabic artist. It’s an interesting song, you can listen to it on my box.net account. It is called something like “ta3la we 7a…”. Tell me what you think ;-) .

  1. Cool list! I like Revolutionary, a lot of Toby Mac, Another One Bites the Dust, and your arabic music. Do not be ashamed of the music you like. I’m not, and I like classical and country… :)

  2. I’m totally not ashamed :-P . I wouldn’t have posted it to my blog othewise :-) .

    The Arabic song is interesting song, I don’t listen to it all that much though, because it is so different. I do listen to it while doing my arabic homework though. So far I don’t think it has helped :-( .

    Classical is good. I have some really good Haydn music that I didn’t post here. I should post it to my Box.net sometime…

  3. Eleanor Rigby is a good song to be sure. But I can’t stand “Dare you to Move.” :-P

  5. Awesome! You imitate some pretty rockin’ people (and I oughta know!) ok, I’m just kidding. I like most of those, especially Dead Man (Carry Me) by Jars of Clay. That one is catchy and sticks in my head. :D

  6. Oh, and if you don’t mind me double-posting comments….

    I love a LOT of the old music. They put thought into it. XD

  7. Dead Man (Carry Me) is definitely one of my more favorite ones from that list, Lydia.
