Musical musings for April

The last few weeks have been particularly busy for me, especially with having the big task of moving. As a result, I have neglected my blog and almost forget about my monthly musings. I remembered just in time i.e. last night and made it part of my mission tonight to write this little post. Oh and by the way, my move went well and I am super excited for this new chapter of my Vancouver adventure. The month of April somehow became pretty much all about country music and I am not quite sure why, but I have really enjoyed the tunes that made their way into my iTunes library. I keep catching myself flipping through my iPod shuffle on the way to and from work trying to find one of these songs because they instantly make me happy. So without keeping you in suspense any longer, these songs were the stars of April 2013:

1. Shine (Acoustic Version) [feat. Sam Palladio] - Nashville Cast
2. Cups - Anna Kendrick
3. Beat This Summer - Brad Paisley
4. Sure Be Cool If You Did - Blake Shelton
5. Red - Taylor Swift
6. Stay Stay Stay - Taylor Swift
7. It's A Beautiful Day - Michael Buble
8. Downtown - Lady Antebellum
9. Cruise - Florida Georgia Line
10. I Want Crazy - Hunter Hayes

As you can see I wasn't lying because it was all about the country and what a fine bunch of artists they are. I have to say my two particular favourites were Cruise and Downtown - definitely upbeat, catchy tunes. I am even lucky enough to now be going to the Taylor Swift concert in June, which I am super excited for especially as it is the night before I go to New York. It doesn't get much better than concert one night, big apple adventure the next morning. On that note I have to do the not so glamourous task of folding laundry, but maybe I will listen to my April inspiration while I do it.
