My New Year Playlist

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen!

I haven't posted in far too long! With all of the new year buzz I figured I might as well post a playlist dedicated to just that.
The main thing I focus on every year is to always stay positive, get into a solid routine, and always know that everything happens for a reason. :)

Happy Listening!

1. "The New Year" by Death Cab For Cutie
Perfect song to either toast in the new year to or just contemplate thoughts of the future.


2. "New Years Project" by Further Seems Forever
This is a very personal favorite that I am pretty sure hit over 100 plays on my itunes, when I saw that I realized hmmmmmm I must really like this song! I listen to this when I need a pick me up---sometimes you just need to give up everything to actually gain something. Oh and the vocals on this one come from Chris Carrabba (also known as Dashboard Confessional)...this is a pretty old song.


3. "Comes and Goes (In Waves)" by Greg Laswell
Just a favorite I cannot stop listening to! Whenever I listen to this song later I am sure it will make me think of what my life was in the end of 2009 beginning of 2010.


4. "1901" by Phoenix
Fits my stay positive goal...I can't help but feel happy & motivated when this tune is heard.


5. "Pressing On" by Relient K
Another personal favorite. This song has helped me through more than I could ever imagine. I tend to let lots of things just put me into overload...those of you who know me know very well that I very driven by emotions. This song grounds me and tells me to put all the garbage behind me.


6. "Don't Slow Down" by Copeland
Keep moving!


7."In These Arms" by The Swell Season
A current listen as of late. I love the simple beauty this one has to offer. It has gorgeous vocals and lyrics. I am in LOVE.


8. "Jump In" by Making April
Don't hold back.


9. "Let Go" by Frou Frou
One of my favorite songs of all time...go watch GARDEN STATE!


10. "We Are Going To Be Friends" by Jack Johnson (or The White Stripes...which ever you prefer)
My perfect teacher song...maybe this year?

1. Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova (Swell Season)--"Falling Slowly
From the movie "Once" and incredibly touching.


2. Brand New--"Tautou"
Interesting video, but awesome nonetheless


3. Copeland--"Testing the Strong Ones"
This video is NOT by Copeland, but the song is. I just wanted you to be able to listen :)


4. This Providence--"Catching my Breath"
I am totally falling in love with them!


5. LIGHTS--"Ice"
She is amazing!


6. Snow Patrol--"Open Your Eyes"

You tube wouldn't let me embed it, beautiful!

7. Owl City "Tip of the Iceberg"
One of my absolute favorite songs right now, perfect winter song. :)


8. Further Seems Forever--"Snowbirds and Townies"
Watch video HERE
This is from the album "The Moon Is Down" (one of my all time fave albums). I love the song and the video. They are now broken up and every album they recorded had a different lead singer. This song it is Chris Carraba (most commonly known as Dashboard Confessional)...he is amazing on this album, trust me!


I am going to go ahead and end it there.  Hope you enjoyed it, I know it was kind of random but that is how I choose my songs ha ha ha...I just go with it!
