Lori, of Superfantastic fame, tagged me for this meme.  I know, 3 posts in one day, can you stand it???  The meme involves listing seven songs that you are into right now.  I listen to a lot of radio and a lot of variety on the radio, so eclectic will be a word I use just like Lori did.  The problem is that I know songs, I just can't remember what they're called half the time.

1. Mountain of God by Third Day - God and I had a great talk during this song at their concert in September.  GREAT song.

2. Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol - I'll agree with Lori here too: "It's trendy and all, but how am I not going to like a song that advocates both wasting time and just laying here?"

3. Wherever We Are by newsboys - This is one of the single greatest car dancing rock out songs ever.   EVER.

4. Crazy by Gnarles Barkley - although I haven't heard this in awhile, it ALWAYS makes me CRANK my radio as high as I can stand it.

5. Wholly Yours by David Crowder Band - they're fab.  'nuf said.

6. By His Wounds (?) with Mac Powell and a bunch of other guys. - There is just something about a whole group of fabulous male voices all singing in a perfect harmony.  dc Talk did this a bit too.  Almost gives me chills.

7. Born to Love by TobyMac - this one is like Crazy, it will always make me crank my radio.

:sigh:  Good, now I'm done.  I got to 4 and kinda got stuck for a minute.  That whole know the song but not what it's called or who sings it thing.  And now, I tag all of you.  You can post on your blog and leave the link in the comments or just put your answer in a comment.  There are, as ever, no actual rules around here, so do seven, do more or less...whatever.  Totally up to you. (I agree Lori, and I'm too lazy to try to rephrase something that should be obvious.)

So, I've joined the Rebecca St. James Street Team, which means I run around promoting her new album, If I Had One Chance To Tell You Something , which releases Nov 22.  Yeah!   Also, they need/want more people on the  street team to promote the album.  So, if you go to the link at the end here you can join me and tell people to listen, request, and maybe even buy her new album!!  Join me!!!  It'll be GREAT!!!  (Can you tell I like Exclamation points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)  If you want to check out more about her music and who she is, check out her website.

You’re probably wondering just why we need more peeps on this street team. Well, here’s the thing. Bec's new album will be coming out at on November 22 and to really get the word out about it (and how amazing it is!) we need tons of people willing to hit the streets to talk about it. We have some really really great projects that I’m dying to tell you about, but I have to keep under wraps until it’s time! But trust me, you’re gonna love them.

And for anyone that’s a real fan anyway, they’ll want to be the first to know, b/c yall will be the first to hear the new music, the first to see pics (including the cover, which is being worked on as we speak!), the first for everything Rebecca.

So start telling everyone. And you can direct them to this website to sign up… www.AliveCrew.com

So, I have Launchcast radio on Yahoo at work.  And today this song by Reba McIntire came on.  It's called Somebody.  It was good, very encouraging, made me smile.  You can look at the album and listen to a sample here.  You can also load it to play in Media player here.  Or, you can just read the lyrics here:

 

Somebody (Dave Berg/Sam Tate/Annie Tate)

At a diner down on Broadway they make small talk
When she brings his eggs and fills his coffee cup
He jokes about his love life
And tells her he's 'bout ready to give up
That's when she says,"I've been there before
But keep on lookin' 'cause maybe who you're lookin' for is..."

Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there is somebody

Across town in a crowded elevator
He can't forget the things that waitress said
He usually reads the paper
But today he reads a strangers face instead
It's that blue-eyed girl from two floors up
Maybe she's the one maybe he could fall in love with

Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there is somebody

Now they laugh about the moment that it happened
A moment they'd both missed until that day
When he saw his future in her eyes
Instead of just another friendly face
And he wonders why he searched so long
When she was always there at that diner waiting on

Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right on by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there is somebody
