Music Selections: I realize that it is only September, but I’ve come to the end of my Music Mondays My Years posts. So I thought I would end them with some of my favorites for this year so far.
Florence + the Machine “What the Water Gave Me” — Such a beautiful song. This is hands down my favorite song on the album.
The Black Keys “Gold on the Ceiling” — Who doesn’t love The Black Keys? I would take them home any day.
Green Day “Oh Love” — While I wasn’t that excited about 21st Century Breakdown, I am loving this song…
David Guetta feat. Sia “Titanium” — This is my summer song.
The Shins “Simple Song” — Another favorite band. I love this song way too much and James Mercer’s voice is to die for…
Jack White “Sixteen Saltines” — I really must buy this album. I love everything Jack White does.
Santigold “Disparate Youth” — I’m not a huge fan of hers, but I love the music behind this one.
Mumford and Sons “I Will Wait” — I can’t wait until the new album. I already pre-ordered it on iTunes.
Alex Clare “Too Close” — A relatively new find for me. Love his voice.

Music Selections:
The Offspring “Americana” — I loved The Offpsring, all the old stuff. The new stuff just doesn’t have the same fun. I think this was their last record that liked. And I saw them in concert either 2000 or 2001. Great times.
Goo Goo Dolls “Iris” — One of my all time favorite songs. I’ve recently caught this song on Lithium multiple times. Can’t help but stop and sing along.
Matchbox Twenty “3 am” — Another high school favorite of mine. I hear they have a new song. Haven’t heard it yet, but I’m sure it won’t compete with 3 am.
Savage Garden “Truly Madly Deeply” — A gooey love song.
Barenaked Ladies “One Week” — I still can’t sing the entire song, but I love it anyway. Plus, it was on the soundtrack for 10 Things I Hate About You, which is one of my favorite high school era movies.

Music Selections:
Third Day “Wire” — I was obsessed with this band for awhile. And this is my favorite song of theirs.
Green Day “Holiday” — Green Day at the height of their creativity. Their current album just doesn’t compete to American Idiot.
Jason Mraz “You and I Both” — Love this song to pieces. I definitely don’t like everything Mraz does, but this song is just lovely.
