Of COURSE they have one for music!

Day 10- Songs you listen to when you’re Happy, Sad, Bored, Hyped, Mad


This one will be especially somewhat difficult, because I've loved music since I could like... make conscious decisions! Who knows when that started really... Ha.


I'm actually really excited to do this one though because I love music so much. However, this blog might be especially long.


So. Music I listen to when I'm happy. Well. Currently, I'm listening to some Michael Buble :) He has an incredible voice and his songs are so wonderful. Usually when I'm happy, I tend to listen to stuff like his--Frank Sinatra. Harry Connick, Jr. Dave Barnes. John Mayer. Jason Mraz. Sara Bareilles. Copeland. Coldplay. Jamie Cullum. Taylor Swift. Yes--I openly admit to listening to Taylor. She's tight. And I relate with her...Um. who else. Cartel. Paramore. Boys Like Girls. Jack's Mannequin....I dunno. Oh and lately I've really been diggin Justin Bieber's "U Smile". I KNOW it's Bieber...but it's so hard not to like that song!


Let's move on. Sad. Usually when I listen to sad songs, it's the same artists, just all their sad songs. A good example of the perfect sad song is "All By Myself" by my girl, Celine. Haha. It's seriously the epitome of sad. What else. "Split Screen Sadness" by John is pretty good. Copeland has some pretty good sad songs. And Coldplay too. Oh and Jack's Mannequin "Swim". It's such a good song, and I'm not sure it's meant to be sad, but when I'm sad I listen to it several times, cuz that song has ALWAYS got me out of bad emotional ruts. It's absolutely incredible.


So when I'm borrrred...I usually put on this new stuff I've been into. Well, it's new to me anyway. And it's not boring stuff, it's just...different I guess. But I LOVE it. It's like the dubstep, house, electronic (NOT techno) stuff people listen to lately. Like deadmau5, pretty lights (my personal favorite currently), bassnectar, 3OH!3, hoodie allen, umm... and pretty much anything else I like from this new sick blog I came across from my friend Crockett.


Being hyped is a completely different choice of genre for me. This usually entails the hip hop/r&b/rap portion of my itunes. Like Lil Wayne. Kid Cudi. T.I. B.o.B. Timbaland. Ciara. Rihanna. Chris Brown (especially his new song "Yeah 3x"!). Shwayze. And basically anything else that falls under that category. Some of it is really good, and fun, but other times it just plain old sucks and ruins the hype.


Mad. Sometimes, this is the most fun choice of artist! It's also kind of important to depending on how quick I want to get my rage out, ya know? Usually I'll pick a little evanescence, sometimes Jimmy Eat World, umm...Flyleaf. Such a good anger artist. My Chemical Romance. Sometimes I listen to Muse when I'm mad too. I also like to run to the things that I listen to when I'm mad. Sometimes it pushes me harder. 


Anyway, I HIGHLY recommend looking some of these up. If you're interested. :)
