In true social media nerd enthusiast fashion, I’ve decided to participate in Throwback Thursday (or #tbt for all you savvy people out there) in the blogosphere. I present to you Kelly Clarkson’s Behind These Hazel Eyes. This song has been on my mind all week. Why, you ask? It’s simple. The weather forecast. It is presently mid-March […]

I’m very proud of my iPod’s ability to switch from Carrie Underwood to Linkin Park to Josh Groban to The Beach Boys to a choir piece to an embarrassingly high amount of Christmas music…all within a 6 song shuffle. Granted, it doesn’t help me in terms of being able to plug in and serve as […]

Songs of the day: “Come Over” and “Feel Like a Rockstar” (duet with Tim McGraw) by Kenny Chesney
To those who know me, my love and childlike impatience for the summer months can easily be categorized as old news. However, this year’s impatience is about five times as bad as it normally is. Why, you ask? The Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw “Brothers of the Sun” tour has a Chicago stop on July […]

I decided at a young age to be a non-conformist when it came to music. No, I’m not the type of person who used to like Death Cab before they were featured on The O.C. a billion times and then hate them with a hate so strong it can only be compared to that of […]

Generally speaking, I can determine whether or not I like the sound of a song after the intro. I determined that I enjoyed The Rat long before the vocals even began. Why? To be honest, aside from the drums, I can’t fully put my finger on it. However, once Leithauser chimed in with the vocals, […]

Every time a Monday rolls around, it takes every ounce of my being to refrain from posting Monday, Monday by The Mamas and The Papas. Nothing at all against the song. I love the song. I just think I might be the only person on Earth who would find it funny or ironic. Glad I […]

I spent a majority of yesterday’s work day listening to Band of Skulls after seeing their name on the 2012 Lollapalooza lineup. Out of that big, long list, why was I attracted to a group with such a morbid name? Because it sounded familiar. Do I know why? No, not a clue. Generally, I try […]

There are very few TV shows I get into. That’s not to say I can’t enjoy a rainy day on the couch flipping through the channels but, in terms of fully committing my precious time to a cast of characters, I’m a little stingy. Because of this stingy-ness, when I do find a show I […]
