I'm gonna marry MUSIC!

So for those people who know me REALLY well know how big of a music geek I am. I actually find joy in researching new artists and catching up on whats out there. Some artists may be new to the scene and some may have already been around for a very long time and just new to me. If you go through my music selection you will see how wide the range of genre's are...I swear sometimes the people I work with probably wonder how I could go from one song to another. I was just talking to a friend and he mentioned he loves music and that it heals him when he needs to be healed...I responded to that by saying I totally know what he means because to me, music is honestly probably my best friend...it heals me when I need to be healed and sad, it inspired me when I need encouragement, it celebrates with me when I'm happy...its there at all times when I need it to be. Some of you may understand this and some of you may not. So a couple of months ago I was introduced to a new artist through my friends myspace page...her name is Lykke Li...at the time I didn't really take the time to take in her music...but the past couple of days I have been really listening to her stuff. She's definitely a different sound and may not be for everyone but her sound and music is so different and I really can't get enough of it at this moment. If you haven't heard of her, check her out...Lykke Li. Its funny...for someone who has absolutely nothing to do with music I love it as if I did. There are so many other artists out there that I would love to just mention to get you guys on...again...they have been around a while now, but I just haven't had the time to sit down and write about them...

Duffy
Santogold
CSS
The Ting Tings
Sam Sparro

Kid Cudi

...okie...I'll stop there! LOL...but all the artists above bring a different sound to what I love the most...a different mood, a different feeling...I don't know if that really makes any sense to you but hope you understand.
I have been feeling very melow the past month and been doing some "me time", and this is what I have been doing during my "me time". Listening to music which is whats helping me get through my "me time".
