Musica

Music is a big part of me. I sometimes think it pulsates in my blood stream. It's so hard to explain it. I love that I can turn on my iPod and escape. Last night, I caught an old episode of Grey's Anatomy. I noticed one of my favorite songs was featured. "Keep Breathing" by Ingrid Michaelson. In the same episode "Beautiful Mess" by Jason Mraz was featured. It got me thinking, if had to devote a playlist to a TV show, it would have to be Grey's. The music on that series is absolutely amazing. I then googl'd the playlist of season 5 and look

at the list! It's amazing! I think I have about 90% of those on my iPod and even about half of them are in my playlist of favorites! I have created a playlist of music that just fits me and I can never ever get sick of. It's only about 359 songs but I could never get sick of them. I would say over half of them have been used on Grey's. I do have all the seasons and being the nerd I am, I still watch them over and over. I am now noticing the music selections used in the background and for certain moods! One of my all time favorites is Ingrid Michaelson "Turn to Stone". I was watching an episode at 1am on Saturday and never realized it was used for a pretty emotional scene. Makes me cry every time. I try to show my girly side every once and a while.

My most recent download was a very random selection. I got the Vancouver: Winter Hits of the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. I am glad to say, it's upbeat, keeps me interested and something different. Good $6.99 sale on iTunes for 40 songs. They are remakes but it's interesting to hear the differences! Sometimes a little more techno. Need some "uns uns uns uns"...sorry, that is my Mike F impersonation.

Confession time. I have a new guilty pleasure song. I should have known the second I heard it that it would be a downfall for me. I'm a sucker for the ballads. I think that is another reason why Rachel from Glee and I have so much in common. It is sadly, Miley Cyrus. I heard the song a few weeks ago and just set it on the back burner. Being home yesterday, I checked it out. I think I listened to it 3 times before just going to download it. Ugh, I'm hopeless! Not only is the music not so bad, but the lyrics hit close to me personally.
