Me Ol Bam Boo

Okay I won't lie. I have a deep love for the movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. If you havn't seen it....repent and go see it. :) The Dick van dyke version not the broadway version. There is a difference. When I was little this was my favorite movie in the whole world. This was one of my favorite songs from the movie along with Hushabye Mountain and You Two and Toot Sweets etc... This one is just so fun! Plus these songs were written by The Sherman Brothers and there has yet to be a song of theirs that I havn't LOVED!! Thank you Sherman Brothers for being so amazingly awesome! And before you all start thinking Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a Disney movie let me stop you right there..... It is NOT a Disney movie! The Sherman Brothers are just that good. :) Enjoy! Until tomorrow I am The Music Nerd.

Nolita Fairytale

So I looked up the word 'Nolita' in the dictionary and it said: Did you mean 'Nolt'? Which means sing or neat cattle. :) Neat cattle huh? Well now that we know that Nolita dosn't have a meaning we can officially call this song Fairytale or Nothing fairytale.... or if we want to get really crazy we could use the meaning of the suggested word Nolt and say Sing Fairytale or Neat Cattle Fairytale. :) I still think Nolita (meaningless as it is) sounds better. So here is Nolita Fairytale. Until tomorrow I am The Music Nerd.

Molly Smiles

I won't lie. Today's song was almost going to be two different songs by The Bangles. Manic Monday or Walk Like An Egyptian. But I then happened upon this song and I just couldn't not put this song as the song of the day. I love love love this song! Happy Monday everyone! Until tomorrow I am The Music Nerd.

Sorry

Sorry. My main computer broke and all my music went down the drain with it. So that is why the last couple of days have been musicless. Right now all I feel like doing is eating chocolate pudding. Which I am going to do. Right now. Tomorrow I will find a song to do this tragedy justice. Until tomorrow I am The Music Nerd.

Copperline

Ahhhh Copperline by James Taylor is such a wonderful song. Soothing to me and also brings back childhood memories. Yes, childhood memories, my mom introduced this song to me. I love it! I remember singing this song in the car with my mom on the way to school every morning.... okay not every morning. I hope you all like it too. Until tomorrow I am The Music Nerd.

Dog Days Are Over

Did you watch The Voice a few nights ago? I would say last night but that's because I dvr'd it and just got around to watching it last night. I love DVR! I also love The Voice! If you havn't seen it you should catch up on Hulu or Youtube. It is so good! I guessed who would get eliminated every time correctly and so I am pretty happy with the results so far. This girl did such a good job on this song! I am not kidding! Watch the video I love the drums in this performance!
(Side note) So you will notice that a good chunk of songs are gone from the Grooveshark on the right... this was not my choice. Well kind of was. I went to add the song yesterday and Grooveshark said it's widgets were getting phased out. Well not really the widget part of the site was but we could still make widgets. Sigh... So I had to go and re add all the songs... so I didn't end up adding all of them... that is A Lot of songs. Sorry for the cut in songs. Until tomorrow I am The Music Nerd.

4:35 A.M.

I think of this song everytime I get up way to early with my kids or if I, for some reason, have to drive really early in the morning. When these things happen this song fits the time and mood. I love it so very much. I had a hard time finding a video so I would just listen to it on the Grooveshark. But if you want to watch the video that is okay too. Somebody out there also felt it needed a place on YouTube. So thanks to that person and thanks for Gemma Hayes for singing this song. It is beautiful. Until tomorrow I am The Music Nerd.
