I haven't updated in a WHILE.
With Twitter and Facebook, I think everyone knows whats on the go anyway! I figured I would check up on the blog and see what was up since I have some time on my hands right now.
I feel like I can say this here, because very few people if ANY people read this, so my chances of humiliation are less than if I posted it on facebook (which would cause about 75 of my music school friends to have a lesser opinion of me)!
I really don't like it when people judge others musical tastes. Its like tastebuds... you're just born with them. And why the HECK to you think there are all different types of music anyway? Sorry - that is one thing I will NOT miss about music school.
Here goes - I like the Jonas Brothers. Okay... like is an understatement. I'm loving them right now. I know their demographic is like... 13 year old girls, but I just love their music. Its so fun, and light hearted. I can listen to it and just have a good time. Most of their songs don't have a deep meaning, they're not talking about sex and drinking and Nick is only 16 (he writes most of their stuff) so he hasn't "lived" enough to write really deep things. Its the only music that I can listen to without thinking about something or someone. You have no idea how hard that is for me to do.
So there you have it. I love the Jonas Brothers. Judge all you want, but I think they're awesome.
Also, I've been into Demi Lovato. Yes, she's the girl from Camp Rock. But its the same with her. Exactly the same. I love the attitude they bring to the business these days. "I'm no supermodel, I still eat McDonalds". They're real people. Its FUN okay. I'm having FUN with it.
I appreciate good music. And insane talent. For instance - I own the new Dave Matthew Band CD - Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King. Its genius. So good!
I've always said that I have the biggest musical palate ever. Some recents:
Jonas Brothers
Demi Lovato
Dave Matthews Band
Taylor Swift
Mat Kearney
Snow Patrol
Chris Tomlin
And then you have my regulars:
Starfield
Amanda Falk
John Mayer
Josh Groban
Kelly Clarkson
Michael Buble
Nichole Nordeman
Rush of Fools
Backstreet Boys...
Just to name a few.
Like the music you want to... I won't judge.

As...
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rose buds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing we'll grow older every day
Just as all that's born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky, always
Until the ocean covers every mountain high, always
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea, always
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Did you know true love asks for nothing
And acceptance is the way we pay?
Did you know life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day?
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
Until the day is night and night becomes the day, always
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away, always
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4, always
Until the day that is the day that are no more
As today I know I'm living, but tomorrow
Could make me the past, but that I mustn't fear
For I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky, always
Until the ocean covers every mountain high, always
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea, always
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
We all know sometimes life's hates and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your life times that and twice its double
That God knew right where He wanted you to be placed
Until the day is night and night becomes the day, always
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away, always
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4, always
Until the day that is the day that are no more
And the rose buds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing we'll grow older every day
Just as all that's born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky, always
Until the ocean covers every mountain high, always
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea, always
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Did you know true love asks for nothing
And acceptance is the way we pay?
Did you know life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day?
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
Until the day is night and night becomes the day, always
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away, always
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4, always
Until the day that is the day that are no more
