U2ishness

Good morning, you people of the living persuasion. It's Thursday, and I just wanted to check in. I'm in a music mood today, and I'm going to get right to it. I'm inventing a new sound description in the category of rock. It's called 'U2ishness'. These are songs that you hear and, no matter how crappy you feel, they give you hope and make you feel like it's not so bad. Here's what I've come up with so far:
Where The Streets Have no Name by U2
Beautiful Day by U2
Valkyrie Missle by Angels and Airwaves
Do It for Me now by Angels and Airwaves
The Adventure by Angels and Airwaves
Hopopolli by Sigur Ros
Better Way by Ben Harper(not the best singer, but good music)
Clocks by Coldplay
God Put a Smile on your Face by Coldplay
Hey, Jude by the Beatles
Move Along by The All-American Rejects
My Humps by the Black-Eyed Peas
Okay, just kidding about that last one. But seriously. It's not necessarily the words to these songs, though with some of them it is. It's the music or the words combined with the emotion of either me when I listen, or the person singing. It's the passion and the energy. It's the crescendo. I'm all about the building up and tearing down and the building up again of a song. I think that's my favorite thing about music. The fact that the way something sounds can make my heart feel so good, that I can ride the music from a trot to a full gallop(not that I ride horses; wrong West family member). If you know what I'm talking about and know of some songs that do this or make you feel like this, let me know. Or if you have your own sound description, comment on it. I'll check in later with you guys. Also, go check out
Les's blog(shown in my links section) and check out the Halloween post. Pretty awesome. Aaaaand...I'm out.

And you people wonder why I want Japanese TV in the U.S....

Have a great weekend. Love and out to all...

Good afternoon, all. Boy have I got a treat for you today. One of the coolest videos ever. That's it. No really, I mean it. For sure. Love & out to all.

Wow. Long time no blog, eh? I finally missed this enough to change the not blogging. I was going to do an audioblog on the 26th from En Fuego, but the audioblogging thing wasn't working. Oh, well.
So. Who wants to have fun? Who wants to laugh? I do. So, I have an idea. Next week, do something that you like to do. Whatever you like to do, do it. Whatever it is, I mean it. Do it. Have some fun. I've had sort of a funky attitude lately. Not bad necessarily, just wierd. I realized that I've become somewhat of a cynic. I've decided that I don't want to be that way anymore. I want to have hope, joy, anticipation of good things. What I don't want is worry, fear, doubt, and depression. I've had too much of that. I want to smile more and laugh more, not frown and pout. So do something fun. If you live in the area, my Dad has a life group on Tuesday nights @ 7:00 where we play games or hang around and talk. It's awesome! You might even get owned at canasta by my grandmother! That's it for now. Love and out to all...
