It’s that time of year. The time when everyone angrily shoves each other out of the way to snag the last Tickle-Me-Elmo. The time when you have a plethora of holiday parties to attend and completely abandon your workout regime. The time…okay, I’m done being Scrooge now. While the stress of the holidays gets to [...]

Let’s see what fun. has lined up for me, shall we? (Before anyone asks…yes, they spell it “fun.” Lowercase with a period.) Harmonies? Check. Strong guitar? Check. An ability to hit the high notes? Check again. And then, “All the Pretty Girls” was named song of the day. I was sold from the acapella intro. [...]

Today’s song of the day was a pretty quick find. Since my life on Tuesdays at 7pm is dedicated to Glee, finding this song took absolutely no effort at all. I’d go so far as to say it fell into my lap. I didn’t have to dig, prod, click around or even touch my headphones. [...]

As much as we might like to base our view of love off of the countless chick flicks that we’ve all seen, finding love isn’t always as simple (or perfect) as Hollywood leads us to believe. Finding someone may not happen during the height of your happiness, while wearing your best outfit, surrounded by your [...]

I’ve had the title of this song written on a post-it stuck to my desk for about a month now. Without fail, it seemed to get covered up by pieces of paper, magazines, more post-its and whatever else weasels its way onto the gray green surface of my desk. Today, it was uncovered again and [...]

The signs are everywhere. You know that looming project you attack head on for a few weeks, and suddenly you just…fall off the face of the Earth? Progress stops, and the guilt begins almost immediately. That’s exactly what has happened here. My last song of the day was in August. I’ve been motivated. I’ve had [...]

I have a problem, and I’m ready to admit it. When I don’t completely “get” a musicians fame, I make it clear. (Sorry to all members of the Dave Matthews cult…no matter how hard you try, no matter how much you explain the experience, no matter how many sax solos you try to talk about, [...]

Just a short time ago, tragedy struck when the stage set for Sugarland collapsed in Indiana, killing five people. Today, a stage set for the Pukkelpop festival in Belgium has also collapsed, with four dead thus far. Initially, I wanted to feature a Smith Westerns song after I was told they were due to take [...]

The recently attacked Gavin DeGraw has been through a lot lately. Getting jumped in New York City resulted in the cancellation of some of his shows so he could properly recover. Luckily, I know just what he needs: a song of the day feature. Sure, I’ve heard this a time or two, and may have listened [...]
