Top 5 Christmas Tunes

I don't like the traditional hymn type Christmas carols. But, I do like throwing these Christmas tunes up on the good ol' speakers every once in a while.

So let me introduce you to my 5 Favorite Christmas tunes:

Bandaid - Do They Know It's Christmas.

This is the newest compilation of this song, and as always features Bono.

Coldplay - Christmas Lights

Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You... a classic

Trans Siberian Orchestra - Carol of the Bells.

Wham - Last Christmas

What are your favourite Christmas Tunes?

Tuesday Tunesday

The tune of the week is dedicated to my lovely hubs.

Luke Bryan - Kick The Dust Up.

I know how much he loves it.

I actually find this song super catchy.  Sure country music isn't really 'country' anymore, but I like it that way.

Been listening to my old iPod lately and I haven't updated it since, oh about 2 years ago.

I was/am one of those people who just downloads the entire album and added the whole thing without listening to them prior.  I regret that now as its been a pain in the ass.

That being said there is a lot of crap on it. And a lot of hidden gems.

Like this one:

Lifehouse: Sick Cycle Carousel

U2 is back!

So, thanks to social media I found out that U2 just released their new album on iTunes. for FREE! SURPRISE!!

It was part of the launch of the new iPhone 6, the iWatch and something else.  This isn't the first time U2 has teamed up with Apple, remember there U2 eexclusiveiPod? I sure do, cause I own it.

As for the album. It's not bad at all.  Its' called the Songs of Innocence, featuring 11 songs.

01 The Miracle (of Joey Ramone)
02 Every Breaking Wave
03 California (There Is No End To Love)
04 Song For Someone
05 Iris (Hold Me Close)
06 Volcano
07 Raised By Wolves
08 Cedarwood Road
09 Sleep Like A Baby Tonight
10 This Is Where You Can Reach Me Now
11 The Troubles. 

I guess the actual hard copy will feature about 4 more tracks.

But a new album means new tour date!

(this isn't a paid post or anything...U2 is just my fave band)
