On the Go: Shark in the Water – V.V. Brown

Traveling Like the Light

This song is so catchy and I love the pop/R&B feel of it. It’s not new at all now, but it is definitely on my ipod #1 songs playlist!

Enjoy!

On the Go: OMG – Usher (feat. Will.i.am)

This is my new ipod “on repeat” song. Its not as addictive as “Yeah” and is not a smash hit, but the chorus is just so freaking cool!

I truly believe that we’ve been lax in our standards when it comes to how many syllables there should be to make something a word. First it was “ella” (two syllables) now its just “O”.

Enjoy!

On the Go: Beyonce – Smash Into You

This song is in her movie Obsessed with Idris Elba and Ali Larter. Everyone was great in it except Beyonce…she needs an acting coach, although I will say she was good as an angry black woman…so, yes, even if she needs to brush up on her skills, she did a good job.

Sorry about the video, she never made one for it.

On the Go: Kid Cudi – Day and Nite

Love, love, love this song! Just discovered this artist. I can’t wait to hear more from him!
It’s the newest addition to my ipod!

Enjoy!

On the Go: Kevin Rudolf feat. Lil’ Wayne – Let It Rock

An all new song that I just discovered. Rock and Hip-Hop…not the first time its happened, but this is definitely cool

One of my new favorite songs is Lady GaGa’s song, Starstruck. The technopop is subtle, and the bass just makes me want to get up and boom boom.

Another song that I’m listening to right now is a classic rock/pop beat:

At some point I’ll post all the songs in my playlist!

In this extraordinarily candid and revealing memoir, Knapp offers important insights not only about alcoholism, but about life itself and how we learn to cope with it. Continue reading
