I came across this tag over at Riddhi’s blog, Whispering Stories and have been wanting to do it for awhile! Maybe you will come across some new songs that you like!

Home Town Glory: The songs that remind you of home

My favorite song that always boosts my Texas roots is My Texas by the Josh Abbot Band featuring Pat Green. I have alot of great memories in life associated with the Josh Abbot Band.

If This Was a Movie: Favourite songs from movies/tv/broadway

I know everyone is talking about it, but I am digging the soundtrack from Encanto right now! Surface Pressure is my jam! I think alot of people can relate to the feeling of being weighed down by expectations and feeling the pressure. In case you’ve been living under a rock, you can watch it here.

It’s a Love Story: Your favourite songs about love

My favorite song about love is Falling In Love At A Coffee Shop by Landon Pigg. It’s so simple, sweet, and sincere!

Comfort Crowd: Songs that make you feel calm

My number one calm song would have to be Aqueous Transmission by Incubus. The mix of Brandon Boyd’s voice, the Chinese pipa, and other tranquil instruments always take me to a place of peace and serenity.

Always remember us this way: Songs that remind you of your childhood

There are so many that I could put here, so I’m just going to go with the one that immediately comes to mine which is Boot Scootin Boogie by Brooks and Dunn. I remember we had a line dancing class after school in elementary and my reading teacher taught us how to dance to this song! I don’t remember how to do it anymore, but it brings back fond memories of my young school days.

Let’s Get Down To Business: Songs that motivate you

Rap music is what usually gets me pumped up and gives me a confidence boost! I have a whole playlist of them to help me feel motivated. You can listen to my playlist here.

Old Town Road: Songs from the past (like really old ones) that you love

I have wide range of favorites from all decades. This one is so hard to choose. I’m gonna go with a song that reminds me of my grandpa (RIP). He was a huge Glenn Miller fan. My personal favorite song by Glenn Miller is Moonlight Serenade.

Cry with you: Songs to make you cry and cry

The song Creep by Radiohead always makes my heart ache in a really weird way (that doesn’t always make me cry) but I feel emotional pain. It usually comes up when I’m struggling with depression…

I think I’m in love: Your latest musical obsessions

I’ve been in a Latin pop music phase lately and I have alot of songs that I’m really into. Here’s a few.

Mon Amour – Remix by zzolio and Aitana

Tacones Rojos by Sebastian Yatra

999 – Selena Gomez and Camilo

EL POETA by Humbe

Writer in the dark: Your favourite lyrics from songs

Sigh….I can’t wrap my head around this one right now.

Sign of the times: Songs in the charts that you love

I’m gonna go with Imagine Dragons x J.I.D – Enemy. It’s on the Today’s Top Hits list on Spotify.

More than a memory: Songs you have specific memories attached to

Ugh. So many! The first one that came to mind was Tootsie Roll by 69 Boyz. This song came out when I was in elementary and I remember we would dance to it at recess! 😆

Sing to me instead: Those songs you have to sing to

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen!! I’ve only sang karaoke once in my life and it was to that song.

I wasn’t expecting that : Songs you didn’t expect to love, but you do

There’s not really one I can think of for this question.

Favourite record: Name the albums you couldn’t live without

I don’t really listen to whole albums like I used to.

Video Games: Name your favourite music videos

I don’t really watch music videos anymore. But I here’s one that popped into my brain…

Shut Up and Dance: Songs you have to dance

September by Earth Wind and Fire is the song I ALWAYS dance to!
