This one's for you Shannon!

(don't miss post I did prior to this one!)
Now, back to business.
I will admit I am not very good at following through with things like "tags" like the one Shannon did the other day.
I get overwhelmed easily :)
I am going to do this one because
a. I should do one every now and then
b. I do like reading other peoples tags
c. I don't have to work tomorrow
So, I agree with Shannon that picking only 8 songs is not easy, it's a real pain in fact. Since I had been thinking about it every time I was in the car and would hear a song I liked I would think "is this one of my 8 songs?" It was driving me nuts. I finally decided that no matter what I would get tired of those 8 songs so I am just not going to over think it.
Here's my list:
1. Good Life by One Republic
This is currently one of my favorites.
2. For Good from the musical WICKED
Need I say more, I just say this show and am obsessed with it. I love the words, I just love the song.
3. One Day More from Les Miserable
Now it wouldn't be fair to leave out my favorite musical of all time would it? I have several favorites and it is hard to pick one but I think in the end I picked this song because it is so inspiring.
4. Say by John Mayer
It's just a fun, upbeat song with a pretty good message.
5. Everything by Michael Buble
I love Michael Buble, he is a great artist and most of the songs I know of his are ones that when I hear em I instantly feel happy and they make you want to sing-a-long.
6. Called to Serve
Do I really have to explain this one? :)
7. The River by Garth Brooks
Garth is one of my all time favorite artists (sorry country music haters...) Have you heard this song, it's amazing.
8. Last Pick, this was tough!! I was debating something by ColdPlay, GooGoo Dolls and Tim McGraw. I think Tim won out. You absolutely cannot listen to his song BBQ stain and not sing at the top of your lungs, well at least we do in our car!

Next:
luxury item
hmmmmmm, I think it would be my TV with DVR hahahahahaha
my second choice would be a big jetted tub!

Book:
I thought it was a series so I was all set to pick Harry Potter because I think I am the only person on the planet earth that has NOT read them. Yes, you heard me I haven't!
If I could only pick one book, jeez probably some church book that would inspire me to want to keep living given the fact that I was stuck on an island.
There, I'm done!

I like Michael Buble and Coldplay too. I had to go without any songs from musicals, because it was too hard to decide between them. Yours were good choices though.

Thanks you :) I didn't even think about musicals... that adds an entire new dimension!
