A 45-mile daily commute is a good excuse to listen to music. The other day I just set my radio to scan through available stations and after a few searches, I heard a station playing this song. It usually takes me at least five listens to a song to like it, but I liked this song immediately. It's so bouncy and catchy!
Break me out tonight/I wanna see the sun rising anywhere but here
Come with me/Oh, this could be/The only chance we get/We gotta take it
Maroon 5's latest single - Misery - also falls into the bouncy and fun category. Quite antithetical to it's lyrics, Misery's melodic line is pop-y with a great hook -- exactly what I love about Maroon 5's music. I've heard some criticism in regard to this song being nothing more than stereotypical Maroon 5, but why fix something that works? A new song to groove to in the car is always appreciated.
I am in misery/There ain't no other/Who can comfort me
Why won't you answer me/Your silence is slowly killing me
Why won't you answer me/Your silence is slowly killing me
Doves - There Goes the Fear
Hall & Oates - You Make My Dreams
The first time I saw 500 Days of Summer, I didn't like it. After seeing Inception twice, I decided that my love for Joseph Gordon Levitt was great enough to warrant a second chance. I'm really glad I did because not only is the movie excellent, it is full of great music!
I heard Hall & Oates - You Make My Dreams come true on the radio and I couldn't suppress the image of JGL doing that happy dance through the park after he "gets" the girl. I love how music can do that; how it can be so linked to a memory or an important moment in life.
