Download This.............

This will be the last edition of "Download This" before our family vacation.  I will not be blogging while I am on vacation but I promise to keep track of everything we do while we're gone so I can blog vomit it for you upon my return to work.  Pictures too.  Tons of pictures.

Now it's down to business time!!

#1:  Mr. Brightside By: The Killers

I have another song by The Killers that I really like (Somebody Told Me).  I heard this one on Pandora and it's also very good.

Okay, that was the first time I had ever seen this video and it was fucking great.  I like the line "It was only a kiss".  What great and creative costumes and makeup! 

#2:  Starships By: Nicki Minaj

This is my new favorite song right now.  I'm not that big on Nicki Minaj.  I like maybe 2 or 3 of her songs but I LOVE this one!!  She just performed it on American Idol the other night and it grabbed my attention right away. Supa and I both agreed that we had a hard time watching the actual performance because we were waiting for Nicki's boobs to come bouncing out of her top and slap someone in the face.  She adjusted them a few times but they stayed in her top sort of. 

This video sucks but all of them sucked and for some reason, I could not find the official music video!!  POOP!!  Here's another one where you need to just close your eyes and listen. 

#3:  Shut Your Eyes By: Snow Patrol

I love many songs by Snow Patrol.  Chasing Cars, Set The Fire To The Third Bar...Just to name a couple.  This one got my attention and I actually heard it for the first time while shopping in Publix.  LOL, go figure. 

#4:  Sorry For Party Rockin' By: LMFAO

Some people absolutely hate LMFAO but I like them.  I think their songs are kind of dumb yet catchy and perfect for exercising or just forgetting your problems for a few minutes while singing along.  They crack me up with their dumbass live performances and as much as some people would like to see it, I don't think they're going anywhere anytime soon. 

I love how David Hasselhoff shows up in the most random of places!!  He gets paid to just show his face!  Craziness!!  I think it's pretty cool that LMAFO is also a Uncle/Nephew team.  They sure are different, I'll give them that.

#5:  Gunpowder and Lead By: Miranda Lambert

I know, I know.  I am a self-proclaimed country music HATER.  I do hate country music.  I also have huge respect for amazing country singers like Garth Brooks, Reba, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Shania Twain....I like some of their music.  (Few and far between)  But I do not seek out new country songs or artists.  I generally do not listen to country if I can help it.  SO, why is this on my list of songs to download??  Well, I heard it on American Idol the other night while I was watching it with Supa.  Skylar sang it really well (I like her because her voice is amazing and she sounds just.like.Reba.) and I thought it was a good song so I downloaded the original, still a really good song.

Even if you don't primarily listen to country music, give it a listen.  You might actually like it!  It surprised me, that's for sure.

The video above is Miranda Lambert singing live.  Those are some high powered and very serious lyrics and I totally agree!!  I saw another video of her singing this song and before the song begins she holds up a sign that says "Chris Brown, take notes"  Wow.  I guess that was right after he beat Rihanna's ass and she decided to send him a message.  Just wow.  She even asked the audience to "Please get a good look and take pictures to post on Facebook and Twitter".  That's what you get Chris Brown!!  Go beat on someone your own size!  What a loser!

Here is the video of Skylar from American Idol singing this song.  She did such a great job, I just had to post it.

That gave me goosebumps.  Just being honest. 

That's all for today folks. 

Laters,
