On a rainy day, I'm all about Ryan Star's "Eye of the Elephant" CD. <br /><br />As for the music of nature, I'm so with you. Nothing can make me smile like the mockingbird who has recently set up camp outside my front door!Words Done Writehttp://wordsdonewrite.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2031530258657685977.post-3002880545343478892012-04-14T07:58:27.047-07:002012-04-14T07:58:27.047-07:00Heavens to murgatroyd....how in the world did I mi...Heavens to murgatroyd....how in the world did I miss THIS!!! I am mortified. AND not only did you honor me with a mention, the post was about MUSIC...one of my favorite topics. *hanging head in shame*. First, Amber, let me tell you how much you are loved and appreciated...not only for your kindness, wit and compassion...but for your loyalty to friends. Thank you. <br />Okay...now let's get down to some music talk. You really "get it" Amber. Music is such an integral part of our daily life and yet, so often we don't even realize it's importance. Often when stressed, we turn to music for relief and if music can't be found, how many of us hum our way through stressful moments? (raising hand) In the post that you so kindly mentioned, I admit that I wake up with a soundtrack in my head already playing almost every morning. I never know why that song was "chosen" but, dang if it doesn't almost always seem to fit the day. Katrina and the Waves "Walking on Sunshine" is very often my "go to" song...it creates a sense of joy and exhilaration that just can't allow negativity to take hold. Music, like humans, has moods and can create a feeling. I love "spa/meditation" music when I need to regain peace or when I'm working on the computer. I love country when I need to sing. I love classical in the fall and winter (classical=cozy) I love rock in the summer and when driving with the windows down. And then, there is the music of nature...but that is for another discussion ;-)<br />You are the best Amber!!<br />xoxo<br />Claudiasocialmediaddsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2031530258657685977.post-79772679641210312362012-03-27T18:46:21.290-07:002012-03-27T18:46:21.290-07:00Oh, Kaarina, there are some great songs on the Top...Oh, Kaarina, there are some great songs on the Top Gun soundtrack, aren't there?

I certainly like your Journey and AC/DC choice; I want my song to have impact.<br /><br />I would say 'Walking on Sunshine' could be very appropriate for me but then people might accuse me of going to see Twilight movies too....:). <br /><br />Music is a great motivator and my themes would probably change daily. My iPod would probably scare you, especially since it's from my 26 yr old son's music file.....:). Oh well, nobody else can hear it.<br /><br />Have a great weekend.

I tell my girls that you've got to believe all of the time. I also loved Ally McBeal, and not just because I was a single woman lawyer when I watched it. The quirky characters were eerily familiar, somehow. So, what is your theme song, Amber?
