The BEST Songs of All Time... Maybe

Sooo... there is no "BEST SONG OF ALL TIME." Everyone has different tastes in music... no one will ever agree on everything. But I bet a large amount of people would agree on at least one of these songs... They probably deserve to be in the top 5 of all time at least.... or you know... at least like one of these songs.

These are mostly Classic Rock songs... I feel like that's maybe a genre most people can kind of get on board with.

1) Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen 

Does anyone dislike this song? It's by Queen... how could anyone not like Queen? This is unlike any other song really... it's totally crazy and out there... every part of the song is a little bit different... so it doesn't really get boring or anything. It starts out slow but then it gets faster and better as it goes on. It is just an awesome song that everyone has probably heard in their life at some point or other... and the reaction is probably pretty positive. I'm alway happy to hear it on the radio.

2) Life on Mars by David Bowie 

I can't stop listening to this song right now! It's just a really great song. I'm not quite sure this is my favorite song ever... but it might be my second favorite song. My favorite song is also from Bowie. It's called Soul Love and it's beautiful. Anyway Life on Mars- awesome song... I feel like I love it as someone that writes and often feels uninspired... I don't like seeing the same thing 10 times or more- I want to see something new and different. It's just a really meaningful song to me right now... and I think it's pretty awesome!

3) Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper 

Even April Ludgate likes this song. If you don't like this song you might be dead inside or something.  I remember hearing this one time when I was in a cab... and I was happy because I had just seen my boyfriend at the time...and then I was like "awww this is a sad song." And... I guess that isn't a great story- but it is a great song and I still love it and it is what I have on my dating profile as "The song that makes you cry." And really there are a lot of songs with the potential to do that... but this song I thought would be the most relatable song to mention... so yeah!

4) Welcome to The Jungle by Guns and Roses 

I just watched the new Jumanji movie... which is called Jumanji: Welcome to The Jungle- and obviously they play this song at the end because why wouldn't they... but this song in general just makes everything kind of better and it just makes the movie as a whole work really well. Great song. I feel like I don't know any other Guns and Roses songs... and I'm not sure if I would like any others... but this is a great one.

5) Superstition By Stevie Wonder 

One time my friend and I were blasting this song in her car because we weren't really sure what song we wanted to listen to and I think she said "Soul" and I was like "Stevie Wonder!" So we ended up blasting this and someone waiting for a bus yelled "Yes! I'm feeling this music right now." And that was the best thing that anyone has ever shouted at me... lol. And it's because this is definitely a song so many people can relate to and love!

So I think that's all I have to say. The David Bowie Exhibit really made me think of music on a deeper level and I thought it'd be fun to tell my stories with it.

Bye!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
