Lucky Sevens

So I think we all know that last year was not my best. I went through some tough things, made some dumb decisions, and lost several people who were very important to me. I made no secret of the fact that I was happy to see 2006 come to an end. As the first month of 2007 also comes to an end I think it's important to note how much I'm enjoying this year. So with that in mind, I've put together my latest playlist - Lucky Sevens. It's full of songs that make me feel good and I'm all about feelin' good in '07.

1. Don't Wait - Dashboard Confessional
Favorite line:
Don't wait, Don't wait
The lights will flash and fade away
The days will pass you by
Don't wait
To lay your armor down

2. Could it Be Another Change - The Samples
Favorite line:
You can't love no one
you can't love something
you can't love nothing
you can't love anything
till you can love yourself

3. Where Does the Good Go? - Tegan & Sara
Favorite line:
Look me in the eye and tell me
you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me
you won't go

4. You Get What You Give - New Radicals
Favorite line:
But when the night is falling
And you cannot find the light
If you feel your dream is dying
Hold tight

5. Renaissance - Mat Kearney
Favorite line:
I can be the wall when you fall down
Find me on the rocks when you break down
I heard it in the song when you call out
But I got to say now it's got to change

6. February Stars - Foo Fighters
Favorite line:
Even though
I pass this time alone
Somewhere so unknown
it heals the soul

7. Sweet Girl - Fleetwood Mac
Favorite line:
Sometimes I feel like I was always on-call
Sometimes even I'm allowed to fall
He says come down here for a minute...
Sweet girl

8. Everyday - Dave Matthews
Favorite line:
All you need is
What you want is
All you need is love
Everyday

9. Let Go - Frou Frou
Favorite line:
So let go, just get in
oh, it's so amazing here
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown

10. 30 Something - Jay-Z
Favorite line:
Them young boys ain't ready
for real
30 is the new 20
and I'm so hot still

11. Sheep Go to Heaven - Cake
Favorite line:
Now, I just want to play on my panpipes,
I just want to drink me some wine,
As soon as you're born, you start dying,
So you might as well have a good time

12. 18th Floor Balcony - Blue October
Favorite line:
I close my eyes and smile
knowing that everything is alright
to the core
close that door
is this happening to me?

13. Boston - Augustana
Favorite line:
I think I'll get a lover and fly em out to Spain...
I think I'll go to Boston,
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind...
I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset

14. Move Along - All American Rejects
Favorite line:
Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
