The magic of music

January 27, 2011

I love music. I love listening to it, making it and dancing to it. My tastes run from one end of the spectrum to the other (except for non-melodic jazz). I can listen to Aerosmith on day and Josh Groban the next. I can always find music to either fit the mood I’m in or elevate my mood when I’m feeling down.

Lately I’ve been listening to one song that instantly inspires a dance party. It makes me so happy every time I hear it! It’s by an Australian band called Jet and the song is “Are you gonna be my girl”. (I'm listening to it right now as a matter of fact!) This song has shown up in movies and commercials and for good reason. One of my favorite scenes in the movie “The Holiday” is when Kate Winslet wakes up and starts jamming on her air guitar to this song.

Sometimes we get so busy that we can lose touch with the simple things that make us happy. I’m sure you have some sort of music that you enjoy listening to. How long has it been since you had a spontaneous dance party of your own?

What sort of music do you like to listen to? When was the last time you indulged in it?
