July Music Favorites

Yes, I know I am 10 days late and I apologize, but I think July has some pretty good music, well maybe. I've been quite obsessed with Rent this much so I have some more favorites from the movie.. I can't help it, I become obsessed with musicals.

1.) Rent: from the Musical Rent
I think this song is really amazing, and it is the perfect opening for a musical if I do say so myself. I usually don't listen to rock music but, this is absolutely amazing and I am obsessed with Anthony Rapp's voice. If I was a guy, I would want to play Mark Cohen in Rent, he is amazing, and we can relate. For example in La Vie Boheme, which is a song in the musical at the end of the song all of these couples are together and being all lovey and Mark is just dancing all crazy like, that's totally me.

2.) Best of 2012 Pop Mashup: Anthem Lights
I discovered this group on Pandora, and I have heard this arangement of songs for quite some time, but this past month it came on a lot and I Love it especially the end. "Call Me Maybe at a Payphone Wide Awake and standing on a Starship waiting while we're young tonight." It's perfect!

3.) The Scientist: Coldplay
This song has always been one of my favorites and in the nights when I couldn't go to sleep I would put this song on repeat and it would soothe me to sleep. I love this song, and a while back I could relate to this song, and whenever I listen to it I remember how I got through some hard times.

4.) Another Day: From the musical Rent
I love this song, and just everyone singing it. Everyone that was involved in this song are perfect, They are so talented and I love this song so much because of that. Even though the scene isn't in the movie it is on the deleted scenes, and it's also on the movie soundtrack. I wish they hadn't cut this scene from the movie because this song is perfect and makes the movie a tad bit more understandable.

5.) Elephant Love Medley: from Moulin Rouge
I love this medley of songs and it is perfect! I mean perfect. I can't even describe how much I've listened to this..

6.) Feeling Good: Michael Buble'
Michael Buble is one of those go to artists when I am just upset or if I just am in desperate need of some good music. I love this song, and though I can't sing it the greatest, I love to hear it.

7.) Take a Look at Me Now (Against All Odds): Phil Collins
I have listened to this song a million times.. I am not even kidding, I feel so connected to this song, and I get emotional every time I sing it. I also put up a cover of this song not to long ago check that out here.

That's it for July, I hope you all are enjoying them! There isn't much this month, there could be so much more  but, I don't want to put the whole Rent soundtrack on here.  Can't wait to do August! It will be exciting.
