Every once in awhile I come across some music that just makes my whole world feel better, no matter how eeyore of a day it is.  Since my nearly new Macbook has gotten sick and is currently checked into rehab (aka the Apple Genius Bar), blogging for the next few days may prove challenging.  I figured I’d share something happy to perk myself up.  My newest playlist obsession.

Nicknamed “Hart of Dixie” since a lot of the songs I first heard there ~ it consists of the following …

As Good As I Once Was 

~ Toby Keith (Honkytonk University)

I smile like a giddy child EVERY time this comes on (and on a short playlist like this, it comes on a lot!).  I then manage to belt out every work with a twang, still smiling and giggling like a little kid.  I love this song.

Run (feat. Sugarland)

~ Matt Nathanson (Modern Love)

This song gives me butterflies, and I love Jennifer Nettles’ harmonization on the chorus.  Plus, she’s got a kick*ss voice.

This Love

~FM Radio (Out of the Blue)

Just a sweet song ~ I feel like I should be driving a pick-up through the country on a sunny day with the windows rolled down every time I listen to it.  Heart, heart, heart.

A Woman Like You

~ Lee Brice (Hard 2 Love)

Speaking of driving a pick-up on a sunny day with the windows all the way down … the man and I first heard this song driving home from our Memorial Day weekend camping trip, and the lyrics just got me right.here.  I hope that the man feels about me the way Lee  Brice feels about his lady in this song.  Beautiful.

Touch

~Josh Abbott Band (Small Town Family Dream)

I just like this song.  And it was part of my fav ep of the season ~ had.to.have.it.

The Trouble with Girls

~ Scotty McCreery (Clear As Day)

Okay, so I don’t watch American Idol (which a lot of people find weird since I love to sing so much) buuuuut…  I never really got into it.  I first saw Scotty McCreery on Hart of Dixie and was blown away that a guy who looks like him has a voice like his.  Plus, this is just a really sweet song.

Yes, only six songs, but you may recall that I’m a repeater, so I quite enjoy listening to the same songs over … and over … and over again.  🙂 Hope you’re listening to something that perpetually makes you smile.
