Day #1 – Your favorite song

OK, here we go. Favorite song... this is a tough one. I LOVE music and it's actually unusual to find me NOT listening to (or singing, albeit sometimes badly) music. So for me to pick just one song... that's a tall order. I have many songs that could qualify but if I have to pick one, and just one, I'm going to go with what I think is the sexiest song I've ever heard.

My pick: "Let's Stay Together" by Al Green.

Why do I love this song? So many reasons. Al Green's voice is divine, the whole vibe of this song is sexy, and it's just gorgeous. Did I mention that voice?! It's also one of my dad's favorite songs - and I spent a lot of time as as kid listening to records with my dad. So beautiful, sexy song + sentiment = favorite. Never get tired of it.

 

(Honorable mention goes to "Blood and Fire" by the Indigo Girls, "God Only Knows" by the Beach Boys and "I Wish It Would Rain" by the Temptations.)

30 Day Song Challenge - I'm always behind on this stuff...

OK, so I'm a little behind on this apparently but since I'm a complete music nerd... Well, why the heck not. I even follow Brooke White on Twitter so that's how much I've been offline lately that I missed it -- you can see her challenge here: http://brookiebabble.blogspot.com/2011/01/30-day-song-challenge.html .

Anyway, here's the challenge -- should be interesting to think about it (and see if my brain works at all). I'll make today day #1 - it IS February 1, after all, so it's perfect!
