…sanctus real / tenth avenue north / vota

we had the three aforementioned bands in at cedarcreek.tv on thursday evening for an amazing concert. all three bands did an incredible job, and it was an awful lot of fun. all the bands and management were kind enough to allow me to do my thing, so here are some pictures from the event. as always, the entire set can be viewed on my flickr.

…top five guilty (musical) pleasures

totally stealing this from adam.

i have nearly an entire months worth of music in my itunes (if played song-to-song without stopping or hitting a repeat). most of it, i am happy to listen to at any given time. but these top five songs are reserved for when it’s just me in the car or with the earbuds in, as i really don’t want people to see me jamming to it…

5. disturbed - prayer
now i know, at first glance a lot of people look at this and think “what’s wrong with that?” you have to understand that these guys really aren’t my “style.” it’s just sometimes, i really want to hear some angry music, and this song really does it for me.

4. phil collins - against all odds
sappy story aside, this song has always had a special meaning for me. i swear whenever i hear this on nighttime radio, windows go up, radio gets turned loud, and i’m singing at the top of my lungs!

3. real mccoy - run away
besides the fact that this brings back some tremendous memories of spending my summer in hawaii before freshman year of high school with my best friend, who can deny the cool talking dude’s voice?!

2. rent soundtrack - i’ll cover you (reprise)
i hated musicals… until my wife introduced me to rent. this song gets me every time. every time i hear it i get a little emotional.

1. rihanna - umbrella

seriously. do i need to explain how great this song is? the video is exceptional, the production is incredible, and the mandy moore cover is almost as good as the original.

what about you?

…free music (friday only)

this guy is one of my favorite new artists. if you haven’t given phil wickham a shot yet, now is your chance. it’s a free album download, so what do you have to lose?
