the weight is a gift

kung fu fighting (remix) - fatboy slim, bus stop, carl douglas

that's my new motto right now... or at least a phrase i currently live by. the weight is a gift. i can't tell you how much comfort OTH (one tree hill) is for me... and even though peyton's been a bitch to haley lately, her podcasts still affect me a lot... this phrase actually came from her --- it's a title of a nada surf album... and they have a song that she apparently loves a lot: always love. you guessed it! i love it too. has a really great message and just over-all really good. i've known of nada surf maybe 3 years ago or so, because of roswell... and then the o.c. featured one of their songs again, if you leave; and now OTH... pretty much means they're an awesome band with something to say.

i'm feeling you - santana & the wreckers

another song that i'm completely obsessed with right now... it helps that santana had worked with half of the wreckers before (michelle branch) and the vibe is still there. they go well together i should say...

empty apartment - yellowcard

for some time i've been playing this really loud music for everyone to hear. i just think it's ingenius, the way the singer sounds so young, like a teenager and how earnest he is about being alone and sad...

so here we are - bloc party

i just love the music... i can barely understand the singer! ;) but it's all good... i remember nathan dribbling a ball when i hear thisÜ

son's gonna rise and sideways - citizen cope

this guy has an amazing voice. very distinct. the 1st song, i really liked coz it's was "glidy" and smooth and sexy and it was in really fun scenes in OTH... the 2nd song's a total contrast. very moody, dark, sad, broody, desperate, aching. the lyric: "these feelings won't go away, they be knocking me sideways"... gosh! is there anything more terrible? oh, and did i mention santana's in it too? made it even hotter! ;)

come on - ben jelen

hopeful and poignant. great kissing song. hehe!

lapdance - n.e.r.d.

pharell is da man! anything they punch out is great. this one's no exception. from the start, it's hot! real bad. i just remember nathan getting out of the car on this one. real appropriate for him, i think.

walking into the sun - dirty vegas

good song if you're in the mood for "change" or just being "alive". inspirational and gives resolution. fearless.

sugar, we're going down - fall out boy

even though it's a new, poppy song, it still has grit to it. the lyrics are insane. where have you heard "a loaded God complex, cock it and pull it"??? but it works!Ü the beat is "catchy"...

those so far are my fave songs from OTH and of late... my taste is basically changing from one to another... heavily influenced by this amazing show. i can't say enough great things about OTH. it's just the best show out there; in terms of drama, teen/young adult/even adult relationships are very well written and explored by the writers. plus the fact that they pick such fantastic music selections for every single episode! you can't help but fall madly in love!
