Music Monday- Life Changes

Here is another Music Monday for yah! I always see these posted by Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek (also- I love that he has an alphabetical list of all the songs he has posted), so thank you Drew for exposing me to this awesome idea!

Today I have for you the newest song by beloved Thomas Rhett. In this song he hits on all the crazy things that have happened to him in his life in the last few years. I like how personal this song is, and yet most fans can acknowledge and know exactly what he is referring to throughout the song. Here is Life Changes:

Waking up in my college dorm
Yeah, my life, it was pretty normal
Looking for a date to the spring formal
Wasn’t worried ’bout nothing else, no
Majoring in undecided
Notebook full of bad songs I was writing
Never dreamed anyone else would like’em
Now they’re sitting on a Walmart shelf

Ain’t it funny how life changes
You wake up, ain’t nothing the same and life changes
You can’t stop it, just hop on the train and
You never know what’s gonna happen
You make your plans and you hear god laughing
Life changes, and I wouldn’t change it for the world, the world, oh no
And I wouldn’t change it for the world, the world, oh no

I bought a ring and she said “I do”
But everybody else said, “man, you’re twenty-two
“Whatcha trying to prove?”
“Hey why don’t you wait?”
‘Cause I’ve been waiting on her since the second grade yeah
And now she got her own set of fans
She got a blue check mark by her Instagram
And I wrote a little song about holding her hand and now everybody wanna die happy now

Ain’t it funny how life changes
You wake up ain’t nothing the same and life changes
You can’t stop it just hop on the train
You never know what’s gonna happen
You make your plans and you god laughing
Life changes (yes it does) and I wouldn’t change it for the world, the world, oh noAnd I wouldn’t change it for the world, the world, oh no

I remember the day I told my Daddy and Mama you’re gonna have a grandkid, yep

From Uganda, that’s right, we’re adopting
And she is the cutest little girl that you’ve ever seen
Well I was wrapping my head around being a dad
A bigger wrench got thrown in the plans we thought we’d had
Now Lauren’s showin’, got one on the way
Yeah that’s two under two, hey, what can I say?

Ain’t it funny how life changes
You wake up ain’t nothing the same and life changes
You can’t stop it just hop on the train and
You never know what’s gonna happen
You make your plans and you god laughing
Life changes (yes it does) and I wouldn’t change it for the world, the world, oh no
And I wouldn’t change it for the world, the world, oh no
The world, the world
The world, the world

Life Changes is from the album Life Changes (2017)

 

Music Monday- Lose It

Ayeee! So I mentioned last week that I have wanted to participate in Music Monday for a while, but keep forgetting to set up posts…well I have a few in mind, at least enough to get me through the rest of July!SO keep your eyes (and ears) out for those!

I always see these posted by Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek (also- I love that he has an alphabetical list of all the songs he has posted), so thank you Drew for exposing me to this awesome idea!

Today I have for you the newest single from an artist that I am obsessed with at the moment.

I cannot express to you how much I adore Kane Brown right now. His voice is sooooo unique and interesting and just flat out sexy that I instantly love anything that comes out of his mouth. Hes adorable, and I just want everyone to hear and understand why I love his voice so much. Anyway, this is his newest single, Lose It.

 

That little ringing buzzing good for nothing phone in your hands
The directions to the party that’s just started with that cover band
That old school radio station, let’s just drive until it’s faded
Girl, let’s lose it, tonight

Cause when you do that thing right there
Flipping your hair, baby, I swear

I don’t think you know what you’re doing to me, you got
My heart skip-skipping a beat tonight
Close enough so there’s space between
You and me, let’s lose it
The way you’re dancing, swaying to the music
Girl, that body and how you move it
Every time you cross my mind
Girl, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it

Let’s start with them Luccheses, baby, kick ’em to the floorboard
And bobby pins holding your hair up, girl, you don’t need ’em no more
That dress hanging off your shoulder as you move a little closer
Yeah, let’s lose it, tonight

I don’t think you know what you’re doing to me, you got
My heart skip-skipping a beat tonight
Close enough so there’s space between
You and me, let’s lose it
The way you’re dancing, swaying to the music
Girl, that body and how you move it
Every time you cross my mind
Girl, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it

Cause when you do that thing right there
Flipping your hair, baby, I swear

I don’t think you know what you’re doing to me, you got
My heart skip-skipping a beat tonight
Close enough so there’s space between
You and me, let’s lose it
The way you’re dancing, swaying to the music
Girl, that body and how you move it
Every time you cross my mind
Girl, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it
Girl, I lose it
Yeah, I lose it

Music Monday- I Don’t Think About You

Hey all! This is my first Music Monday post! I have wanted to participate for a while now, and somehow never remember to set it up. I always see these posted by Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek (also- I love that he has an alphabetical list of all the songs he has posted), so thank you Drew for exposing me to this awesome idea! Today I would like to share with you a song that I just cannot get enough of.

Kelly Clarkson is a longtime favorite artist. I like how goofy and fun she is, and I really enjoy her sound. While some of her songs can sound very pop-y, I feel like a lot of them have such a unique sound and I really like them for that reason. This one in particular I cannot seem to grow tired of. I find myself blasting it when it comes on the radio, and singing it in my head for days on end.

Without further ado, here is I Don’t Think About You by Kelly Clarkson

When you’re lost in the moment
You can’t see where you’re going
I didn’t know who I could trust
So I put all my faith in us
Oh, you tore me to pieces
Turned my strength into weakness
I didn’t want it all to fall apart
So I decided just to play the part

But honestly, I’d do it all again
Putting up with all the bullshit
It made me strong enough to do this

It used to bother me
Thought I could never leave
After all that I’ve been through, nothin’ left to prove
No, no, no, I don’t think about you
Weighin’ down on me
I lost my sanity
And now that we are through, nothin’ left to lose
No, no, no, I don’t think about you

I feel freedom where I stand now
And I feel proud of who I am now
Yeah, I learned a lot along the way
I love the woman that I became
I was patient, but not anymore
It’s back in my hands
And you swore I’d never do it
But it’s your turn to face the music

It used to bother me
Thought I could never leave
After all that I’ve been through, nothin’ left to prove
No, no, no, I don’t think about you
Weighin’ down on me
I lost my sanity
And now that we are through, nothin’ left to lose
No, no, no, I don’t think about you

It was hard to hold on
Days and nights I thought I’d never make it at all
Couldn’t make it at all
Now I stand tall
Feeling like myself again, no worries at all
Breathe
No one can stop me from livin’ this moment for me
I found my heartbeat
After all that I’ve been through
No, I don’t think about you

It used to bother me (it used to bother me)
Thought I could never leave (thought I could never leave)
After all that I’ve been through (through), nothin’ left to prove (prove)
No, no, no, I don’t think about you
Weighin’ down on me (weighin’ down on me)
I found my sanity (I found my sanity)
And now that we are through (through), nothin’ left to lose (lose)
No, no, no, I don’t think about you

I don’t think about you (no)
No, no, no (no, no, no)
Not anymore (not anymore)
No, no, no, I don’t think about you
