What's your song?

I have a reputation in my family for crankin' up the tunes and rockin' out in the car when I'm by myself. My children find it very embarrassing when I dare to rock out in their presence... particularly if they have friends around. There are songs though, don't you think, that absolutely compel you to drop everything you are doing and just move your body because it just makes you so happy. I was just doing the dishes, listening to the radio, and feeling a little 'zen' when 'Say Hey ( I love you) by Michael Franti/ Spearhead came on. I just had to stop, turn up the radio, and move around the kitchen and living room like a crazy dancing machine ~ I think this is called 'living in the present.'

What song or songs make you do that?

Hmmm....I'm not sure about the dancing but pretty much any song and i'll grab the nearest elongated stick of some sort and start conducting!

Silence by Blindside - otherwise a Screamo band with very heavy songs.... but this song gives me goosebumps! They are a Christian band and the message in the song really speaks to me about our hearts beating in tune with God's!
