I’m on a Queen kick of late, especially the soundtrack from Highlander. Princes of the Universe and One Vision gets the blood pumping!

I love Queen too - also Journey, Def Leopard, AC/DC - all those good old hair bands!

I am a HUGE Collective Soul fan...I love December, any of their newer stuff....I dance on that treadmill, pretend that I am in the front row (don’t worry, I don’t throw anything up on stage, save that for backstage lol)

I am a HUGE Collective Soul fan

They were playing a couple hours away like two years back. Some friends went. I would definitely go to them because I’ve always liked them.

Another song that gives me a huge rush, if I haven’t already mentioned it, is “Where The Streets Have No Name” by U2. And “Makes Me Wonder” by Maroon 5(I just picked up that album - really interesting direction, and mark my words, “Won’t Go Home Without You” will be a huge hit one day when they decide to release it!).

Mine today is

J’aime la bourgeoisie (vive le rock) by Numero#
It’s a French Canadian song, but it has a great beat to it.

Scott kind of inspired me with last week’s MTM Show #99.

I haven’t walked or run with it yet. But I’m sure it would be a good one to listen to while outdoors.

Brandon---Collective Soul is touring along with the Counting Crows this summer....they will be in my area in July...I own the “Home” dvd of their live performance in Atlanta and it is fantasic.  they are a band that sounds just as great live as they do on their albums.  Anxiously awaiting their new album!!!!!

"Everything Changes"-Staind(This song just reminds me of issues I’ve had with my mother, and how I feel taking ownership of my mistakes.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCPRPQpwvFU&mode;=related&search;=

“Epiphany"-Staind(This song, though interpreted in different ways by different people, is like my depression anthem, it is perfect in every way.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pm9KBabovmc&mode;=related&search;=

“Right Here"-Staind(The personal interpretation I put onto the song was that it’s about my relationship with my oldest brother, for the most part the lyrics fit amazingly well - it blows me away.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPvReKAjlbI

These songs draw out my feelings, and make me feel lighter afterwards. And that’s why they are power songs for me. The next day I can get up and get healthy, because I feel somehow validated and like I’m being totally honest with myself. The beauty of art is that everyone can find their own meaning in it.

RAF! I am STILL humming that “Walk 500 Miles” song.....I think it took up a dwelling in my brain.

And for the Record, U2 is my #1 band of ALL time, I saw their Elevation Tour and it rocked, well worth the $100 per ticket price!!!!!  They sound just as good if not better live-and that Bono, phew, what a smart cookie!!!  (I swear the guy next to me was brought to tears during the show.....)

Oh man, we were cleaning out the garage today and my mom found my Electrical Storm single from all those years ago, and I loaded it onto itunes and it has “Where The Streets Have No Name” LIVE!!!!!!!

That was a very nice surprise, since it’s one of my power songs.
