You Make Me Want to Listen to Music Again

          I have been writing an essay for school for the past 2 hours and I needed a break. What did I do with that break? I looked up my blog to see if anyone commented on what I posted yesterday and I got a friend of mine wanting me to talk about the things I like about me and others. The things I like about myself will probably come at a later post when I am in a conceded mood. But what I like about others is all in the post The Reason Why I Smile.            

        Music has always been a favorite thing of mine. It is my refuge when I have had a bad day. It tantalizes my senses when I am thinking about my crushes. It sets the mood for a good movie; I dance in my car and sing at the top of my lungs listening to the right songs, and my favorite thing to do is have it playing in the background as I study or work. People who know me personally know that I do love music. A lot of them come to me when they want a particular song because chances are, I will have it.
          One day as I was singing along with Kelly Clarkson in my car I had a great idea; I would pair up my favorite artists or songs! This is the list I have come up with:
          Kelly Clarkson and P!nk. They both have unique voices, but together they would accent each other. Kelly is singing about failed relationships and P!nk is just an angry singer. So together they would have a perfect song singing/yelling at an ex-boyfriend. Does that not sound like a good idea? Two other singers I would pair up for an awesome duet would be Adam Lambert and Lady GaGa. Their music styles are similar, but with the diversity of Lady GaGa and the modern 80’s style of voice Adam has would probably be an ambrosial sound. I would LOVE to hear them do a duet. I am not a big fan of country music but I think Faith Hill and Taylor Swift would make a good fun song together. Another duet I wanted to do was Josh Groban with someone, this was hard to think about for a little bit. But after a free download on iTunes and a new love for a rising artist I decided that Elizavita will be perfect for the part. Their voices will totally accent each other. A nearly perfect duet in my opinion.

          I have many songs that I like, and pairing them up with other songs that I like would not be a bad idea. Let me explain this a little bit because it is kind of confusing. When I say I would pair up the songs, I mean the two artists coming together to write a song with a combination of the two mentioned. It will be easier to get as I go along. First I would put the song Unwinding Cable Car by Anberlin and the song You’re Not Alone by Saosin together. Not in a remix form, but I would love to have the two bands get together and write a duet with the musical accents of the two songs into one glorious mouthwatering display of musical instruments. Second is Something in the Water by Brooke Fraser and Sunrise by Norah Jones. Each has a nice playful sound and together I think the two artists could make something quite amazing! Third is Smile by Avril Lavigne and Give Your Heart a Break by Demi Lovato. I can’t explain why these two songs would have a great brain child but I think it would be worth listening to. Another would be Animal by Ke$ha and Hummingbird Heartbeat by Katy Perry. Each has elements that put me in a trance and I think those two together would not only bring out a great song, but it might push the boundaries of what is possible to see on a musical stage. Putting Katy Perry and Ke$ha together on stage is worse than Britney Spears and Madonna. But don’t think about that, it is the song I am lusting after. Now, together Kristina Maria’s song Play and Simon Curtis’ song Flesh would be an amazing artwork. Now keep in mind both of these songs have a lot of risqué lyrics, but it is the beat that I am talking about. I don’t get how I find the dirty songs, but somehow I find them, like them and about a month later I realize what the song is talking about. By then I am hooked. But that song would be one I would sing to in my car.

           Ok I think I have taken the idea of “song children” a little too far, but I LOVE music and I had to vocalize this a bit. I had to talk about it though because I do this a lot; these were just a few favorites that I have come up with!
