September List- Wedding & Love Mix.


Feels LIke Home- Chantal Kreviazuk *Loved this song since I heard it in "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days."
Lucky (feat. Colbie Caillat)- Jason Mraz *I think that I used this song on the alphabet mix, but I just love it so much and it makes me happy whenever I hear it. 
Let's Stay Together- Al Green
St. Patrick's Day- John Mayer
This Will Be- Natalie Cole *Great classic song. 
The Promise- Tracy Chapman *This is me and Ben's song. We danced to it in outside of his car in the snow when we first started dating. It was absolutely adorable, I swear.
My Girl- The Temptations *Cute father-daughter song. My song with my dad was "Roy Rogers" by Elton John... not a father-daughter song at all, but it was always "our song" since I was little. 
Crazy Love- Michael Bublé
Love Will Keep Us Together- Captain & Tennille
Wonderful Tonight- Eric Clapton *This song was played at our wedding reception... but I don't think that I was dancing with Ben to this song. Can't remember who I danced with... wedding reception was kind of a blur and I wasn't even tipsy.
Love of My Life-  Dave Matthews and Carlos Santana *Not really a wedding song, but it was on our wedding cd and I've always liked it. 
Crazy in Love-Beyoncé
Be Be Your Love- Rachael Yamagata
Divide Me- Kalai
To Make You Feel My Love- Garth Brooks *I know that Nicki will hate this one, but I've always loved it since I heard it in "Hope Floats."

OCTOBER mix - covers and collaborations

for october i am excited to announce that we will be doing covers and collaborations. rules:

1. 12 songs
2. only 1 song can be from "glee"
3. no "live" version of the song can be considered a cover. like if an artist is singing their own song live - but it is slightly different than their radio/album version. doesn't count. however, if someone ELSE is covering the song live, that is fine.

ok. have fun. can't wait. hopefully we can get together for some witches brew to discuss.

september mix list by allison

here is the list to my LOVE mix. it has been hard to get together as a group, so i thought i could explain via the blog:

1. by your side - sade. this is in place of the song that i "danced" with my hubs to on our wedding day. since that didn't happen. this is sort of our song and i walked down the aisle to it. i love this song so much and will never get sick of hearing it.

2. marry you - bruno mars. i first heard this song on a glee episode. i think it's fun.

3. is this love - bob marley. such a love peace and happiness song. it just makes me think of people so in love that they wouldn't care that they were living in a dirt shack as long as they were together.

4. glitter in the air - pink. great poetry. and i wish someone would call me "sugar".

5. cry to me - solomon burke. ok so this is a little unrequited, but it reminds me of dirty dancing and the naughty sex scene. so i always think of love when i hear this song.

6. i will be waiting - d cru. sorry nicki, but this song is ridiculously cheesy and just ridiculous. but i love it so much. i don't know why. just do.

7. please forgive me - david gray. again david gray. because i love him. and because this is the most amazeballs line that anyone has ever said "feels like lightening running through my veins, every time i look at you" can i date you david gray?

8. songbird - eva cassidy. again a glee thing. however, whilst searching for one last song for this mix, i found this version and find it angelic and i fell in love.

9. love song - 311. sorry again nicki. but this is mca's and my song. had to put it on here.

10. annie's song - john denver. one of my favorite love songs of all time.

11. fade into you - mazzy starr. love this.

12. my love - jt. needed a little bumpin' on this mix. and i would like to walk with my toes in the sand with my lover.

13. bonus track. can't help falling in love - elvis presley. this is the daddy daughter song. but i also danced to this song at my wedding with my dad. mca was horrified and didn't want to participate.

14. hidden track. S&M - rihanna. not really hidden, but if i could that would be amazeballs. this is just for fun. cuz you know we all like it dirty sometimes :)

90s mix tape review

that was so fun to get together. i loved seeing you guys. can't wait for our next date on the 3rd tuesday of every month. which lands on september 20. 7 pm. location unknown. it was really fun to talk and discuss music and i just loved it. here is my review. congrats angie on your wedded bliss...

my mix:

1. nothing compares 2 u. just as nicki put it. it slays me. everytime. love that song
2. what's up? seriously though. what is up? linda perry is amazeballs.

3. could have totally done without the 311 song. but, just reminds me so much of that time in my life...

nicki's:

1. lightening crashes. OMG. i love this entire album by LIVE. and this song. so many memories.
2. who will save your soul. jewel. i totally forgot jewel on my mix. i was obsessed with that album. it broke in half and i had to buy another one that is how much i listened to it.

3. friday i'm in love. never have loved this song. that's all

christine's: you won for me as well. very 90s timeline. i really loved it.

1. uninvited. oh alanis. oh david coulier. oh rumors.
