100 Songs That Could Change Your Life

31 05 2009

headphonesI got this idea from Baddie’s awesome blog entry, and reading Ade’s version of it kinda clinched the deal. Granted, my musical taste (or the lack of it, depending on your point of view) seems somewhat boring and cheesy compared to most people but what the hell, I thought I’d take a crack at it. At the very least, I guess my future kids could say their Dad had a pretty diverse taste in music.

So without further ado, here is my own version of Baddie’s 100 Songs To Save Your Life:

  1. The Goo Goo Dolls – Name
  2. Smashing Pumpkins – Perfect
  3. Lifehouse – Sick Cycle Carousel
  4. Switchfoot – Learning To Breathe

  20. Jamiroquai – Love Foolosophy
  21. Eraserheads – Minsan
  22. Gary Valenciano – Each Passing Night
  23. Backstreet Boys – All I Have To Give
  24. Up Dharma Down – Taya
  25. Maroon 5 – Sunday Morning
  26. Fuel – Shimmer
  27. Sugarfree – Burnout
  28. Nine Days – If I Am
  29. Tonic – You Wanted More

IKR. I actually thought the hard part wuld be reaching a hundred. Before I stopped putting in songs and trimmed this down I had close to a hundred and fifty!

Since you have Maroon 5’s Sunday Morning on this list, I trust your taste in music. I’mma download the songs that still aren’t in my collection. High five!

This list is made up of awesome.

Also you don’t have “what? no [insert artist name]?” commenters here, unlike in my blog, thank god. If they don’t like the fact that I didn’t include their favorite artist, they should just make their own list.

Space Cowboy by Jamiroquai was the one that resonated with me. In fact of their work has been pretty good. I recently ran across some concert stuff on youtube. They are great LIVE!!!!

Hey! Quick question that’s entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My web site looks weird when viewing from my apple iphone. I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to resolve this issue. If you have any recommendations, please share. Appreciate it!

You could certainly see your skills in the work you write. The sector hopes for more passionate writers such as you who are not afraid to say how they believe. Always follow your heart.

Wow thats an awesome list. I know about 50% of them, but given what you’ve listed I’m going to listen to the others. Also, Tea and Sympathy is by Bernard Fanning. I’m not correcting you to be a b*tch, but just sayin that if you like that, I reckon you’ll dig the songs he sings with his band, Powderfinger. They have a greatest hits CD, but if you want singles you might want to start with some of these : Passengers, These Days, My Happiness, Living Type, Sunsets, All of the Dreamers.

I know this is an old post, hope you still reading replies…

Hi are using WordPress for your site platform? I’m new to the

blog world but I’m trying to get started and set up my own.
Do you require any coding

expertise to make your own blog? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it or

something. I think that you could do with some pics to
drive the message home a little bit, but

instead of that, this is great blog. A

fantastic read. I’ll certainly be back.

Hello this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if
you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have

no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with

experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
