Soundtrack to My Life

A glimpse into my psyche is through my playlist on my ipod. I'm going to list a few here and share some awesome songs you should check out as well. ;) But also describe me and events in life. And here we go!


*Mirror- Barlow Girl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bn7jt6urSEg
           This song talks about not letting your image (looking in the mirror) define you. Letting God define you. Too many times we let others, including our own self image define us, and we need to see ourselves as God does. 


*You are Loved- Josh Groban:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMcGmhAcbuc   Josh Groban: could I even say more? Amazing amazing. But this song makes me cry. Its a reminder to me and to everyone that there IS someone that loves you.


*See Who I Am- Within Temptation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xHto4vAJ8o
        "We must be the change we wish to see" I love the whole message of this song. We need to see through others' eyes, change the world through love. 


*Rock Your Soul- Elisa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBO2d_mE1hY&feature=fvwrel
        Who doesn't want to make a difference in someone's life?


*Misfit- Lesley Roy:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI5xu8-Tm0A
         Because, yes . .. often I do feel like this.


*Stupid Girls- Pink:    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU1DChtdXk0
          Makes me giggle AND seriously . . . anybody else sick of the trend of women lately? Wear less, become cookie cutter barbie, trophy girls, plastic surgery . . . no thanks. 


*Soulmate- Natasha Bedingfield: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWQTpN0-L38
        Can't seem to find mine. This song makes me cry.


But then again: *The More Boys I Meet- Carrie Underwood: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diRt-24OaEE
        I love my dog . . . and love him more as I meet more boys. Yes . . . sorry . . true.


Along the same vein: *Atlantis- Jamie O'Neal   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBAPKBIGaao     "A girl trying to find herself a perfect man is like trying to find Atlantis"


*King of Anything- Sara Bareilles:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPk4_XfYhjg
      Pretty much describes my thoughts on EVERYTHING lately. SO tired of people trying to tell me what I'm supposed to do. Seriously . . this girl stole into my brain and stole my thoughts.


*Keep the Change- Hank Williams Jr.:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iRReHtq_dk
      Amen Brother . . . Amen


*On My Own- Ashes Remain: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPliIx5I1FU
       Yes, I do like Christian Rock. The message is so much better than "mainstream" and often they are better musicians. It talks about us not having to go through anything on our own . . we're not. The Lord atoned so we wouldn't have to. 


*Skyscraper- Demi Levato: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_8ydghbGSg
        One of my favorite songs. Bring it.


*Shake it Out- Florence + the Machine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCWnVznnWcs
        I belt this song out in the car. It helps me shake depression. 


*My Kindness Shall Not Depart from Thee- Rob Gardner http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irX0E4-mc9U
    I cannot listen to this in the car. I bawl and can't see. It is an ABSOLUTELY amazing song. This is from Joseph Smith the Prophet, written SO beautifully by Rob Gardner. This is what the Lord responded to Joseph when he felt abandoned. It is the same message to us. <3 I'm crying even now. Beautiful. I got to play in this when we performed it here. Rob- you are one amazing composer.


*503- Hans Zimmer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMyT-Zuuy3w
     Oh my gosh, gorgeous! Epic! As is all Hans Zimmer. I pull this out on my ipod and play with it <3


*The Lark Ascending- Ralph Vaughan Williams: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWwBh0dzgi4
     My favoritest violin piece I've ever played 


*Flight- Sutton Foster & Megan Mcginnis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBLVGD1vtd8
      This is my "freedom" song. Basically . . I'd love to fly. Just get away every once in a while. 


*If you can Dream- disney artists:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmL6R5S_Wq4
       For the Disney princess in me. I've always loved Disney and wanted to be a voice for one of the characters, or animate . . or be one. 


*Dreamer- Elizaveta:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhN-dZT6_SE
        The romantic/ dreamer in me. <3 LOVE this song. 


*Jump Rope- Blue October:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj4mI4Jfmpo
        This song makes me happy, and TOTALLY describes life. 


*Believe- Britt Nicole: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB9wANk7NVQ
          Another theme song . . . big time. 


*Stronger- Kelly Clarkson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRpGYN7C0qk
         Describes this past two years: "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" And relationships with peeps. Kelly has a lot of songs that resonate with me. Same with Lesley Roy who's song is up a bit. *points*


Hope this wasn't boring as heck, but here's just some of my theme songs lately. Enjoy and welcome to a bit of my brain. ;)
