Day 19 on the countdown is a song from my favorite album. My favorite album would by Forget and Not Slow Down by Relient K. It is their most recent album and obviously my favorite. The song I am picking from it is "If You Believe Me." I love every song on this cd, so this is not to say it's my favorite one on there (that would be Savannah), but that all the songs are great, and here's an example!

starlight
This one is a bit more fun. Day 18 is a song I wished I heard on the radio. I chose Starlight by Muse. It is a more mainstream sounding song, so it fits on the radio, and it's by Muse which I love. I wish more people knew about Muse and listened to them and how great they are! I do love this song and all the others this band plays!
I am having trouble finding a video of this song where the embedding hasn't been blocked. Here's a YouTube link to a good live version of Muse at Wembley Stadium, though. Click it!

Looks like someone posted a different live performance of the song that can be embedded! Yay!
"I just wanted to hold you in my arms"

rolling in the deep (2)
Speaking of bad music on the radio, day 17 is for a song I hear often on the radio. This is a short post, because I've already made a post about this song. It seems like every time I turn on the radio lately, I hear this God-awful song. I hate it so much, but it seems to haunt me. Of course, I'm talking about Rolling In the Deep by Adele. Ugh. Hate it.

where are we runnin'?
Day 16 is a song I used to like but now hate. I think in high school I went through a phase where I liked all bad pop music that was played on the radio. Now I only like some of it :) I'll keep Justin Bieber and 'N Sync, but I've since let go Destiny's Child, Christina Aguilera, Maroon 5, Lenny Kravitz and the like. For this post, I picked the song "Where Are We Runnin'?" by Lenny Kravitz. I have no idea why I liked that song, but it makes me cringe to hear pop up on iTunes now. I wonder if in ten years, I'll look back at what I listened to and have the same repulsion to what was on my iPhone playlists. Hope not. I really love Lady GaGa.

bad kids
Day 15 is a song that describes you. Alright, so I thought that last post took some thinking.... This one really does. You know, in interviews, sometimes the interviewer will ask you to describe yourself in three words or a sentence, or something? I was always bad at that. Like, really bad. So here we go.

Found it. I think the new Lady GaGa album is my anthem. I picked Bad Kids off her newest cd, Born This Way. You know, now that I think of it, several of these songs could describe me. For instance, Born This Way and Hair. I love this cd. That's it.
"I'm not that cool and you hate me"

won't back down
Day 14 is a song no one would expect me to love. I had to think about that one, because I first have to think about what types of songs people would expect me to love, and pick a song not like that. That takes some deliberation!
I ended up picking "Won't Back Down" by Eminem featuring P!nk. I don't know if that's unexpected or not, but gangster rap is not an obvious musical preference of mine. To be honest, I don't like a lot of rap, but I do like Eminem quite a lot. I think he's one of the best rappers to have ever made music. His tracks have lyrics that are relevant, and beats/music that are varied and interesting to listen to. So there. My unexpected song.
Here's an interesting recut of the song for a Call Of Duty: Black Ops commercial.
"you can fence in your yard, you can hold all the cards, but I won't back down"

never say never
I couldn't think of a song for day 12: a song from a band you hate, because I don't generally remember songs by bands I hate. I block them out of mind. Maybe I'll get back to that one at some point.
My guilty pleasure music is Justin Bieber. I picked "Never Say Never" as my day 13 guilty pleasure song. I listen to JBiebs on the sly when I'm by myself, so no one will make fun of me. I guess you know my secret now. Don't tell. :P
"I will fight until forever to make it right"
