Since yesterday's post was negative about the song I hate the most right now, I thought I should counter that with the song I love the most right now.
It's Hallelujah, sung here by the Canadian Tenors. I've heard this song in a couple of other places - on Shrek and on General Hospital (don't judge my viewing habits, please). I love it. They played it as part of the In Memory part of the Emmy's a couple of weeks ago, and I thought it was great. I think it's lovely, beautiful, and all kinds of other warm and fuzzy adjectives.
Now, I just need to control how much I play it (obviously I downloaded it) so I don't get sick of it.
What's the song you love the most right now?

the song I hate the most... #1
Hate is a strong word. And maybe I don't hate this song, but I'm on the verge.
It sounds harmless enough - nice and upbeat music. But, the lyrics, on the other hand are about "the kids with the pumped up kicks who better run, better run, faster than my bullet." And that pretty much wrecked it for me... but, I did a little searching, and apparently the song is to "bring awareness to the issue of youth gun violence."
Even so, this is the song that is on the radio when I wake up. It's the one in my car when I leave for work. It's on when I get to work. And it's the song in my car on my way home from work... and probably by the time I get out of the car, as well. Rinse. Repeat. Day After Day. After. Day. After Day.
When I got in my car after work today, I had a headache. Then the first thing I heard was this on the radio.... Lovely.
And that is the song I hate the most -- today, anyway.
What's yours?

joy to the world
If you haven't caught on, yet, I'm totally in the holiday spirit right now. One of the things I love the most about the season is the music. It's hard to come up with favorites, but I'm going to give it a shot - in no particular order, here is my top 10:
So, what am I missing? Would love to hear your favorites!
- Christmas in Sarajevo - Trans-Siberian Orchestra
- Joy to the World
- This Christmas Day - Trans-Siberian Orchestra
- Baby it's Cold Outside - Dean Martin
- A Start to Follow - Trans-Siberian Orchestra
- Oh Come All Ye Faithful
- The Prince of Peace - Trans-Siberian Orchestra
- All I Want for Christmas is You - Mariah Carey version
- Promises to Keep - Trans-Siberian Orchestra
- Little Drummer Boy - Bob Seger version
Clearly I am a fan of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra - this is the CD that is currently in my car and will likely remain until New Years. Music is great. It can keep you occupied on long car rides by yourself, make you feel happier, and makes singing sound much nicer (at least mine). You can also do fun things - like this (below). Turn on your sound and enjoy.
So, what am I missing? Would love to hear your favorites!
