♪ If music be the food of love ♫

Here are just a few songs and why I love them and can't stop listening to them lately! I tried to choose a few different genres but there a few songs that my husband is SO sick of right now because they are all I listen to! So here is my top 5 songs (all clean, all with great messages).



1- Both of Us by B.O.B. feat. Taylor Swift.
I love this song. I love her voice in it, it sounds desperate and lonely. And although I am not a fan of rap music I can pick out most of what he is saying without lyrics and they are so pure. He is saying that when the money is low and stress is high we can still make it if we look to God and stand strong. That's a really refreshing message in my opinion. Lyrics Highlight: "But we still stand tall with our shoulders up, And even though we're always against the odds, These are the things that've molded us" Here is a link to the lyrics!

2- Hidden Ones by Missy Higgins

Not only do I love all of Missy Higgins music but I love her voice. It is so passionate, and what can I say? I love singers with accents! Lyrics Highlight: "there is a choice, to follow the leader or use your voice" Here is a link to the lyrics!

3- Brave by Sara Bareilles

I love her voice, I love the beat of this song, I love the message! I am a big sara bareilles fan, but usually her songs are sassy and edgy. This one is fun and bold. It is pure sunlight bursting out of the speakers! And the music video? Incredible! Sara posted a video of her doing a dance on facebook and asked everyone to "be brave" and do this dance in a public place by themselves and video tape it and send it in to have the chance to be on the video! She choose her favorites and then invited them to lunch with her and they did a group number too! So all of these were unpaid people literally just breaking out into this crazy dance in public! Plus I love her pants! Lyrics Highlight: "Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live, Maybe one of these days you can let the light in, Show me how big your brave is" Here is a link to the lyrics!

4- Blessings by Mercy River 

This is an LDS group from Utah that I love. This song has been a wonderful inspiration to me and I always listen to it whenever I am feeling low, or blessed, or I need to be humbled. I love it. I just sit, close my eyes and reflect while it's on. I'm sorry the video is kind of weird, but it's the only one they had, and the music sounds great! Lyrics Highlight: "What if trials of this life, Are Your mercies in disguise?" Here is a link to the lyrics. 

p.s. upon writing those lyrics down, I may have cried a little.... I just love this song! 

5- Hold Me by Jamie Grace feat. Toby Mac

This is a Christian pop song, and it is SO CUTE! This song is the epitome of cute, bubbly, fun and happy! It is oozing with giggles and rainbows! I love it! Jamie Grace specializes in songs about God and Christ that could be about a friend or loved one too, which is fun! Lyrics Highlight: "I love you more than the words in my brain can express, I can't imagine even loving you less" Here is a link to the lyrics! 

Final Words ♥: Sing on ♪♫♪♫....
