Tuesday Tunes

I first heard of Brooke Fraser after I stumbled across these lyrics one day:

Oh can you feel the gravity falling, calling us home?
Oh, did you see the stars colliding, shining just to show we belong?
We belong.

After seeing that I just had to look her up.

Boom!

Instant love.

Now, I turn to her when I need something soft and beautiful and inspiring to listen to. Which has been a lot this past few months, let me tell ya.

I've spent a lot of time listening to her and you should too! :)

My faves:

"Deciphering Me"

"C.S. Lewis Song"

and "Love is Waiting"

So...watcha think?

Happy Tuesday!

Much Love Monday

I think I might have a serious Starbucks addiction.

This summer I have seriously found myself in one nearly 4 times a week.

Yikes!

haha.

And, I mean, it's gotten to the point where I've started trying to frequent a different one in my area each time. But, alas, those Starbucks employees are loyally hard little workers. I've had no such luck in being unrecognized. So maybe I should just accept that I have an obsession and be able to reach the point where I can walk in and they'll be like:

"Oh heyyy, Kaitlyn! Iced chai or hot today?? How you doin'?"

Well...maybe. :)

So...in honor of my new admission:

this week I'm lovin' Starbucks.

I hope your weekend was swell!

Right now I am completely, totally, and utterly loving

Kate Miller-Heidke.

And her music has been playing here constantly.

Not only is she an extremely amazing singer, but she is also unique, real, and true to herself. I seriously loved her the moment I first heard her. And I do realize I seem to say that a lot on here...hmmm. I guess I just know when I love something/someone? It's a good thing, right?

Anyways, her voice is mesmerizing.

My current faves:

"Caught in the Crowd"

and "Last Day on Earth"

What do you think? Have/had you ever heard of her before?

I hope everyone is having a great week. I'm just swimming along here. Literally. I spend so much time at the neighborhood pool/tennis courts (with the kids I watch) that I feel like I missed my calling in life. I should have been a fish. ;)

Happy Tuesday!

All We Need Is Right Here Inside Us All

How is it possible that I've never heard this song before today? And I thought myself a Story Of The Year fan! ;)

*click*

Now the damage has been done
And this machine has begun on a path of destruction
We need the medicine
To reverse what's been done
Before this disease has destroyed everything we know
EVERYTHING WE KNOW!

All we need is a reason (All we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all

With our weapons drawn and all our resources gone
We're facing extinction
The only antidote consists of blood, sweat, and hope
And a blueprint to save us from all that we've become
ALL THAT WE'VE BECOME!

All we need is a reason (All we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all
All we need is a reason (All we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us
Here inside us all!

Yeah!
Oh

Now the gears they will fail to turn
As the lights go out
And the sun will be all that burns on our way down
(On our way down)
But right now we have to understand the problem
AND OVERCOME!

So arm yourself
You'll mind your gun
It's time to learn
Accept what's done, and yeah
REPAIR THIS DESTRUCTION!

ALL WE NEED IS A REASON
ALL WE NEED IS RIGHT HERE INSIDE US
All we need is a reason (All we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all
All we need is a reason (All we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all
(All we need is a reason)
All we need is a reason
(All we need is a reason)
Whoooaaaa
(All we need is a reason)
All we need is a reason
All we need is right here inside us
Here inside us all!

It's pretty legit...

Happy Sunday!

If I Were To Write This Down

Would you believe it?

Because it's true...

Tuesday Tunes

I absolutely love

A Fine Frenzy.

Her voice enthralls me, her lyrics inspire me, and her melodies make me feel.

She is the complete package as far as singer/songwriters go, in my opinion. I fell in love with her about three years ago and it has remained an ongoing affair. I just...can't seem to get enough of her.

*Note: this is just a sampling of her music. If you find yourself as in awe as I am/was, please feel free to listen to her albums in their entirety. You won't regret it. :)

Three of my favorite faves:

"Ashes and Wine"

"You Picked Me"

And "Almost Lover"

Pleasepleaseplease look her up! Share the love!

So what do you think?

I hope everyone is having a good week so far. Mine is going fantastically. ;)

Happy Tuesday!
