Classic. You have to love this band. Although the opening of this song is a little too lengthy for me, the lyrics and music are awesome. Plus, a member of the band is married to Zooey Deschanel. I'm kind of jealous but whatever. Enjoy. 
P.S. - The album cover is awesome too.

Don't you love those songs that remind you of the summer? This one is one of my favorite, particularly because it brings me back to the beach and warm days. I love love love it and I badly wish I could learn this on the ukulele. Maybe one day. Enjoy.

I idolize this woman. Her voice is so powerful and simply ... majestic. I highly recommend her Pandora station; it's my favorite. This song has great lyrics and tells quite a story if you listen closely. Enjoy.

Classic band. The New Radicals are from the '90s and released a popular album titled Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too (an awesome album title, might I add). They have a distinctive style of music which seems to be influenced by rock music from the '70s. My three personal favorite songs by them are "Mother We Just Can't Get Enough," "You Get What You Give," and "Someday We'll Know." It's hard to decide on just one video to post but I figured this describes the New Radicals pretty well. Enjoy.

Mother We Just Can't Get Enough - New Radicals

This artist and song never gets old. John Butler is from Australia and his songs are always so heartwarming haha. This one specifically talks about his wife and his newborn child and I just love it. It never gets old. Enjoy. 

Peaches & Cream - John Butler Trio

one.

I've been madly in love with this song and band lately. Even though the lyrics have nothing to do with me, I feel like it describes myself. There's some connection with me and this song, so I found it appropriate to start off the year with this one. Enjoy. 

Seaside - The Kooks

you should know ...

So, I have a thing for music. One of my many new year's resolutions is to devote more time to music because it makes me happy. After all, happiness should be the ultimate resolution. So everyday for 365 days, I plan on posting a video of a song or a clip of me playing the ukulele, or anything music related. If I miss a day, i will make it up so in the end there will be 365 songs on my blog. ENJOY. :)
