Some days, I just can't.

Good Monday morning to ya! I am sooooo looking forward to the warming trend we'll have later in the week; it's been way too cold for me here lately. I just can't seem to get into the swing of things 'round here. I blame the cold, but it's also been an incredibly busy few weeks - celebrating birthdays, working, doing more in the house and trying to get more things lined up so that I can write the next chapter of my life, which promises to be challenging, exciting, and rewarding!

I've also been spending a lot of my down time with my new favorite tv couple, Zoe Hart and Wade Kinsella (at least, at the point in the show I'm at, they're sort of a couple.) and my favorite new literary couple, Perry and Dex (they're currently NOT a couple where I'm at in book #4, but they are destined to be together - so they will be eventually.) And OF COURSE, listening to as much music as I can!



This week? It's all about Sound City, a documentary film directed by Dave Grohl about the famous Sound City recording studio. The wannabe music journalist in me is so, so, so excited about both the film and accompanying soundtrack - so excited I just can't stand it! This documentary is definitely a must see for me (and currently downloadable) and it goes without saying that the soundtrack is a must-buy. Here is an amazing song from the soundtrack featuring some pretty impressive talent, as does the rest of the soundtrack:

From Can To Can't - Dave Grohl, Corey Taylor, Rick Nielsen and Scott Reeder



What music are YOU listening to this week?

    I hear you on it being "too cold". This weekend the highs hovered in the 30s. I want spring to get here now! From Can to Can't is a new tune to me. Not a bad sound at all. The guy singing reminds me of Chris Daughtry a wee bit. Love the introduction! Glad to have you dancing with us on Monday's Music Moves Me!

      Glad you liked it, Cathy! That's actually Corey Taylor of Slipknot - I know; totally different sound! It's actually not too different from his vocal style with Stone Sour, though.

      As always, it's a pleasure to have your company on Music Monday; thanks so much for stopping by!

    What a neat song. This week I will be listening to Japanese songs and watching Studio Ghibli - Japanese anime - children's cartoons.

      I never got into all that anime stuff, but my sons like it. What a great way to spend the week, though - that would be like discovering an entirely new world to me!

      Thanks for stopping by :)

      Thanks, Marie! I really enjoyed it as well. Those drums are courtesy of Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters/Nirvana/lots more), so you know they are fantastic!

      It was good to visit with you today!

      Nope, you can never go wrong with Dave Grohl. What I would love to see is a Jack White/Dave Grohl collaboration. (And if there already is one that I don't know about, then by all means, show me the way!)

      Thanks for coming by!

      I'm not even an island girl (though I wish I was!), and it is way too cold for me. Come on, Spring!

      You have a good week, too, and thanks for stopping by!

      I think you will love the books! I've found a few typographical errors/mistakes, but the books are otherwise well-written. The story is engaging and the characters are really easy to get attached to.

      Hope you liked the song selection as well. Thanks for visiting!
