Turn Up the Volume!
I spent my Saturday running errands with my mom. It was nice spending time with her. Only thing is, my mom is a social butterfly! She loves to talk. How are things going with this or that? Did you hear so and so quit her job, went entrepreneurial, and is now making THIS much a month? This politician says this and people are doing that (in reference to her home country).
Really, mom? I’ve never been in her home country! As you can imagine, she chatted continuously in the car about many topics of interest to her. I wouldn’t mind on normal days but lately, I just want some peace and quiet.
So what did I do? Turned the volume up on the stereo system for my peace & quiet!
On typical days, I’m still listening to songs by Calum Scott and Ed Sheeran. Those songs are TOO slow to drown out the conversation, so I had to turn to some songs of the past.
So again, here is my music list as of today! An eclectic mix of alternative and trance songs I used to listen to very loudly back in the days to drown out the noise of the world. It will probably change tomorrow, but I will enjoy these songs today.
NOTE: Any music lovers out there interested in sharing your love of music, 
Linkin Park – In the End
I am sure everyone has heard of Linkin Park from back in the days. There is just something with all this beat and rhythm, and then to have the lead singer come out with his amazing vocal piece in the middle. I can listen to that 15 seconds solo over and over again.
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know...
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
4 Strings – Take Me Away
No video for this one, simply listen to the beat and vocal to carry you away.
Take me away
Million miles away from here
Take me away
Find the place for you and me
You're taking me higher
High as I could be
You take me away
Forever you and me
DHT - Listen To Your Heart
I like the unplugged version of this song by the same artist more so than this remix, but again, I had to go for a more upbeat song. No video again.
Listen to your heart when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going and I don't know why,
But listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye.
Gigi – I’ll Fly With You (L'amour Toujours)
I was told there is only the male singer in here. The female voice is 'tweaked' with an editing program, but who cares. I still like this song. No video, just lyrics.
I still believe in your eyes
I just don't care what you've done in your life
Baby, I'll always be here by your side
Don't leave me waiting too long, please come by
Vertical Horizon - Everything You Want
Reminds me of the nice guys out there. Everything a girl may want, but just something missing. 😉
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why
The Calling – Wherever You Will Go
Another alternative I don't mind blasting the volume up.
So lately, been wondering
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone you'll need love to light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone, could you make it on your own
Linkin Park – Leave Out All The Rest
I normally wouldn't add the same musician twice on the same post. Well, this isn't my usual post. Chester Bennington's voice is simply amazing. Such a tragic loss with his death.
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Thank you for stopping by! Have a BEE-ATIFIC day!
