Here’s a harsh realization. I’m at an age where I’m choosing to write about a book in my spare time, rather than for a homework assignment. [Quickly recites a poem memorized in high school to prove I’m not decrepit and I’ve still got it. In case you’re wondering, I’ve still got it. And in case you’re … Continue reading
A lot of my friends have songs with their dads. Popular among the crowd is Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle, Dance with my Father by Luther Vandross, Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison and the like. These are the songs that come on over the loudspeaker of a department store and elicit a cock of the … Continue reading
To those of you who are new to HauteThought.com, welcome. To those of you who are long lost friends…well, hello. Remember me? I used to come here to write and review new music and/or post the occasional fashion tidbit. I wouldn’t be surprised if you had a hard time remembering, as it’s been far too … Continue reading

The duo’s songwriting ability and lyrics in their debut album, Barton Hollow, hardly earned me the name … Continue reading
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 … Continue reading

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 … Continue reading
Unless you live under a rock bolted down by none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger, chances are you’ve heard about Justin Timberlake’s return to the music world. Yes, ladies and gents, it’s true. Last week, he took to Twitter to tease that he may be coming back. He then released a video announcing that he was … Continue reading
