I’ve always been a playlist kind of person. I believe that music can completely affect the mood you’re in and even save your life. My dad says that every morning, before he wakes up and starts thinking about all the shit he has to do that day, he puts on a CD and cranks it as loud as the Bose will go. He says that he has all of the mixes I’ve made since the summer of 2005. Hearing that inspired me to make a new CD for him. I titled it “Sunshine of Your Love”. Here are the tracks:
America – Simon and Garfunkel
Overkill (Acoustic version) – Colin Hay
Blossom – Candlebox
Lucky Trumble – Nancy Wilson (from the Almost Famous soundtrack)
Thank You – Led Zeppelin
Lakeside Park – Rush
Around the Bend – Pearl Jam
Father and Daughter – Paul Simon
Wet Sand – Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sunshine of Your Love – Cream
Box of Rain – The Grateful Dead
Lightning Crashes – Live
Harvest Moon – Neil Young
Us and Them – Pink Floyd
Bohemian Rhapsody – Queen
Gimme Shelter – The Rolling Stones
Rivers of Babylon – Sublime
Yep, I agree with you whole heartedly.
Music can indeed save your life. Whenever I feel like shit, I sing, whenever I’m happy, I sing. That release just feels good, or makes your feel better anyways. No matter how awful your voice is. Music is definitely powerful and completely necessary.
Hope life is going well.
Also, Happy Birthday
also… I heart all those songs….
Bohemian Rhapsody has a special, emotional place in my heart for several reasons.
