Rascal Flatts New Album..

New favorite song..

Nothing Like This

"There's nothing in my life,
I'd say I regret,
But there's something in your eyes that makes me forget,
The times that I believed that love was good as love could be,
I had it all, but I was wrong.

Thought I'd been touched,
Thought I'd been kissed,
Thought I'd been loved,
But it was nothing like this.

You can't describe the sea,
Unless you been there before.
It's just a mystery,
Until your standing on the shore,
And moved by every wave
Taking your breath away like you do,
To me.

Thought I'd been touched,
Thought I'd been kissed,
Thought I'd been loved,
But it was nothing nothing like this.

It's like another life,
Like I haven't felt a thing, until you.

Thought I'd been touched,
Thought I'd been kissed,
Thought I'd been loved,
But it was nothing like this.

Ohhhhh hooo
It was nothing like this

Ohhhhhh ohhhhhhh ohh

Nothing like, nothing like this.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh"

Music in Rememberance to Abby

Starting off my week was actually good to write in this blog. This week will be a huge rememberance to my good friend Abby Cockrill who was killed in a drunk driving accident on August 22 of this year. It really shook me inside because she was the first good friend of mine in my 23 years that I have lost. In relating this post and her to music there is some songs that really make me think of her and her life. "Defying Gravity" from the musical Wicked is a song that always makes me remember her because she and I loved that musical so much.

"I'm through accepting limits
''cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity"

Another song that reminds me of her is a song that came out in country music right at the time of her death. It was like she was trying to tell us something. It is called, "If I Die Young" by The Band Perry.

"A penny for my thoughts, oh no I’ll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I’m a gonner
And maybe then you’ll hear the words I been singin’
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin’"

Songs can really help a person cope and mourn over a lost friend or relative. I know music has helped me cope with her loss and this week being her bell ringing and her 22nd birthday on Friday. This week is a week of rememberance to her life and how much I truly miss her.

Music in Sports

As I was watching the Chiefs game I heard music playing in the background of the stadium. My roommates and I were talking about how music can help sports teams as well. Music is everywhere and within sports it can really help players get pumped. I know in high school all of our varsity seniors got to pick a song that they ran out into in almost every sport. A song whether its upbeat or even slow can help a player get their head into the game. Also the crowd can get more in to the game as well. I know at the Chiefs game for kickoffs and touchdowns we have the same music played and the crowd looks forward to it every game. Music can make traditions at sports events doesn't matter the sport.
