Music = Life

Music is not a hobby, it's a lifestyle. Whether or not you care for the songs, the point is the same, share with those around you the music you love and spread the joy you feel with those you care about. I believe Jack's Mannequin put it best in their song "Swim"...swim for the music that saves you when you're not so sure you'll survive...Music can save us and set us free, and I hope these songs will help you just as they have helped me. Enjoy.

If you do like any songs or playlists, please comment or email me with your name and email address and I will gladly send you a copy of the playlist via email so you can place it on your iTunes.

This is one of my favorite playlists I ever made so I hope you do enjoy...and disc 2 (or part 2 in this case) will be coming out next week.

Hope you enjoy...if you get a chance to listen to the lyrics of Casimir Pulinski Day, In My Veins, and Make It Without you...great lyrics that will definetly stir a little emotion (see if you can see what Casimir Pulinski Day is about). Also make sure you listen to the end of the Matisyahu cover of Use Somebody because he does an awesome beatbox finishing touch to the song.
