There are more than 10 songs that describe myself but here are 10 that I probably listen to on a daily basis.

She Will Be Loved – Maroon 5 – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIjVuRTm-dc
Other than this song being catchy and simply beautiful, this song is always a reminder to me that you deserve the best. I was once the “she” in the song that was with the wrong person and didn’t realize that there was some one else out there the whole time. All though I am not with the person that saved me from that caused me problems “with myself”, it made me learn more about myself and that I should always look around.

Livin’ On A Prayer – Bon Jovi – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDK9QqIzhwk
Although I do not really relate to this song, it is inspirational and I can not help but sing my lungs out when I hear this. Some quotes that I really enjoy from here is ” it doesn’t really matter if we make it or not” and ” Oh, we’ve gotta hold on ready or not you live for the fight when that’s all that you’ve got”. It basically reminds me to keep fighting for what I want and to never give up.

Imagine – John Lennon – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCX3ZNDZAwY                                                                                                                      This song nearly brings me to tears every time I listen to it. John Lennon has always has always been a huge inspiration of mine and it is so hard for me to know that he is no longer around to give the world more wise and inspirational thoughts. To me, this man is a musical and lyrical genius and he will always be cherished.

Hey Jude – The Beatles – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDdI7GhZSQA                                                                                                                           Written by another lyrical genius, a man who’s voice is heard on half my iPod, Paul McCartney wrote this song for John Lennon’s son Julian. The Beatles are my favorite band undoubtedly, and this song never gets old. I find it very interesting that Paul wrote this song for John Lennon’s son. Paul was apparently a huge father figure in Julian’s life and this song was written for him to cheer him up during the hard tie he was having with his parents splitting up.

Bye Bye Bye – N’sync – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo-KmOd3i7s                                                                                                                                 N’sync is definitely not as deep as the previous artists I have listed but they can really bring a girl back to when everything was simple. Every time I listen to this song, I look back and remember putting on “shows” for my grandparents and performing this song with a fake microphone and going all out. This song brings me back to when I had not a care in the world and I was free to do anything that came to min and eat ice cream several times a day and not worry about my figure.

Feeling Good – Michael Buble –  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Edwsf-8F3sI                                                                                                                                                                                                                             This man’s voice just makes me melt at his feet just by him speaking, let alone singing. This song does not only have amazing vocals, but it has an amazing instrumental section with a lot o heavy brass which brings me back to when I played in a huge symphonic band.

Good Riddance – Green Day – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnQ8N1KacJc                                                                                                                      Graduating High School last year, this was basically the theme and tone of the year. I remember tearing up, listening to this song in the back of my friend’s car the night before she had to go away for college. This song will forever remain close to my heart.

Lose Yourself – Eminem – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TADyXC2K0g                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Half of my iPOD is consumed with Eminem music. I chose lose yourself as one out of many Eminem songs because not only is it one that everyone knows, but it conveys a message that I like to go by. This song tells us to just let go, and to live our lives and not care what society has to say for it.

Someone Like You – Adele -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLQl3WQQoQ0                                                                                                                Man does this woman have a voice. If I am ever feeling down, all I need is some chocolate and Adele serenading to get me back up. at the age of 22, her voice is already so strong and talented. I relate to a lot of what Adele sings about and I can’t help but sing along to all of her songs like an idiot.

Reverie – Claude Debussy – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5QAKup4jxM                                                                                                                 This is probably one of the only songs without any words that can put tears to my eyes. The sweet and soft sounds of the piano can just serenade me into such a serene mood. There is nothing wrong with this song and it is a personal lullaby for myself.
