Musical Phases

Okay, so I go through little phases where I focus on a few old songs and that's all I listen to for a little while. Well, here's my "tops" list on my iPod right now (meaning the phase I'm going through right now).

1. Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley
2. There Goes My Life - Kenny Chesney
3. Are You Alright? - Lucinda Williams
4. Bless the Broken Road - Rascal Flatts
5. Patience - Guns N' Roses
6. Ain't That a Shame - Fats Domino
7. I'll Stand by You - Carrie Underwood (I remember when the Pretenders first came out with this song, I absolutely LOVED it, I was so excited when Gina Glocksen did it on Idol this year! Awesome song).
8. Don't Matter - Akon
9. One More Try - Timmy T (remember this one Linlee???)
10. Hide and Seek - Imogen Heap
11. Ooh Child - Beth Orton
12. I Tried - Bone Thugs-N-Harmony feat. Akon
13. Let's Get It On - Marvin Gaye
14. In My Mind - Heather Headley
15. Lips of an Angel - Hinder
16. Unfaithful - Rihanna
17. It's Your Love - Tim McGraw & Faith Hill
18. Photograph - Nickelback
19. Sleepwalk - Santo & Johnny
20. Far Away - Nickelback

Okay, before you say anything, I know these aren't ALL old songs, but these are the songs I've been listening to the most lately. Has anyone noticed the amount of songs I listen to lately that refer to cheating? Maybe now I just realize what they're about because I'm listening for it. I've never been one that's too much into lyrics, I'm more of a music girl.

I remember one of my music classes in college - the professor said that most people in the world listen to lyrics, while only a few listen to the actual music being played. I have to say - I have always listened to the music being played. That's why I like a lot of classical music - plus one of the songs on the list above doesn't have any lyrics. It was pretty neat - before she mentioned that, she played a series of songs and we had a quiz on what they were about. I honestly couldn't answer one question - I was the only one in the class. I thought I flunked big time. I felt like a complete heal - turns out, I was the only one that got an A.

Music is something I just feel.
