You guys. I am going to go ahead and call for my own intervention. I can’t stop listening to Hamilton. Trust me, I have tried. There were a few days where I listened to Lemonade on repeat just to remind myself there is other music out there. But it didn’t last. I mean, look atContinue reading “Wherein I learn a lot about history and once again consider my dreams of being in a musical”

Just because…
…I love it. And I love you! Enjoy. It’s a Katy Perry song, by Darren Criss. The only other combination that good is chocolate and peanut butter.
The Mraz hasn’t failed me yet
I. love. him. And every song he sings. Related: I want someone to write me a letter. Thanks.
Rap superstar
I am the reason my sister knew all the words to Busta’s “Break Yo Neck” in high school. I still got all the words to Mo’ Money Mo’ Problems up in the ol’ noggin’ and rap along just fine when it comes on 100.5. Then there was that whole couple of years in my lifeContinue reading “Rap superstar”
Press play. Listen. Be amazed. Repeat.
What’s better than one Adele song? Two put together. And done amazingly. And downloaded onto my iPod so I can listen to it whenever I want. Yes it’s Glee. But forget that for a minute if you’re not a fan – in which case, really? Have you heard ANY of the music from it? –Continue reading “Press play. Listen. Be amazed. Repeat.”

Want me to list some of them? ‘Cause you know I will… Puppies, Neil Patrick Harris, amazon.com, sending Emoji icons to my family in text messages, 70-degree weather, baby laughs and days I get to sleep in. But they’re looking for a song here, I believe. And I gotContinue reading “day 21 – a song that you listen to when you’re happy”
A singer since birth…almost
During a Sunday afternoon car ride with the pastor’s kids – ages 11 and 7… Aidan, 11: Sarah has a singing problem. Me: What’s that mean? Aidan: It means when she hears a song she knows she can’t help but sing. Me: That’s a good problem to have. Sarah: Yeah there’s this one song andContinue reading “A singer since birth…almost”
Idea for a career change that comes up everytime I see a new musical
I am by no means an awesome singer. I can read music. I can match pitch. I can carry a tune. And given the right song to work with, I can harmonize like a champ. The extent of my singing includes that time I was in choir at church when I was like, 5 –Continue reading “Idea for a career change that comes up everytime I see a new musical”
11. Madrigal dinners
When she was a sophomore, my youngest sister joined choir at her school. So last year and this year, we’ve attended the chorus program’s madrigal dinner program. And I love it. If you’ve never been, it’s like dinner theater. It’s got a storyline – usually a funny one and the singers perform a bunch ofContinue reading “11. Madrigal dinners”
We interrupt this list already in progress…
to remind you that, hey, I think the Muppets are cool. I know I’ve never told you that before, right? (See here and here.) But seriously. Saw this a few days ago and it made me smile. If it doesn’t do the same for you, well, then, you are a robot.
