Top Ten Tuesday: Songs I can't get enough of

Music defines my life and certain songs can change my mood, no-matter-what. Recently, I went to the gym without my MP3 player and I didn't actually realize how much music motivated me at the gym (and in life in general) until it wasn't there. Rarely are Aaron and I without music.

It got me thinking about specific songs that I could hear over and over without ever getting sick of them. Now, this is just 10 from my exhaustive list of favorites. I have linked youtube videos to each of them if you need a refresher (*** Note: If you're reading this via Facebook you won't get the links unless you visit my actual blog http://www.aaron-jessi-ispy.blogspot.com/) Try not to get caught up in the visuals of the video, as it isn't the point of what the music means to me.

Drum roll......... 10 songs I won't (or haven't) ever gotten sick of (in no particular order).

10. Soloman Burke- Cry to Me
9. Jason Mraz- I'm Yours (Our 1st Dance at our Wedding)
8. Credence Clearwater Revival- Up Around the Bend (those at our wedding remember this as the song that played when we kissed and walked down the aisle as "husband and wife." It was a surreal moment.)
7. Regina Spektor- Fidelity
6. Dexy's Midnight Runners- Come on Eileen (My dancing song! Bring me anywhere and play this song- I am compelled to dance. I also skip to this one on my MP3 when I think I have nothing left at the gym, LOL.)
5. Journey- Don't Stop Believing (My current ring back tone.)
4. Muse- Uprising
3. My Chemical Romance- Black Parade
2. 4 Non-Blondes- What's Up? (This song defines me in so many ways.)
1. Blue's Traveler- Hook (Quite possibly my favorite song, ever...)

I have a feeling this will be a list I continue every so often...

Both Sides Now- Joni Mitchell

Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds * that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As ev'ry fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
