Random song that just came on my playlist that happens to have really good lyrics. Definitely a song I'm glad that I just discovered and will be listening to more often!

This was my Nana's favorite song of all time. She lived until she was 96 years old and could barely hear anything, but she could always hear this song when it played on CMT on the TV. Good memories of the best woman ever to have walked the Earth!

EXTREME

This song just came on my playlist and to be honest, it's really about the only song that most people know by EXTREME, though they were a really good band that had some good songs. They just never really made it big or popular.

Poison

Certainly not my favorite Poison song, but definitely in the top 10. Though most everything Poison does is really good. And talk about a band that entertains when you see them live. They are so good that I've seen them 54 times in concert. You'd think they would be my favorite band of all time if I had seen them that many times, though again, they are definitely in my top 5 favorite bands of all time.

Ratt

I really don't know why, but I've had this song in the back of my head for well over a week or so now. It just randomly keeps popping to the front of my head and I start singing it. I've listened to it several times during the week, but yet it's still there, though I definitely can't explain why. At least it's a good song though.

Daughtry

Hands down my favorite Daughtry song of all time. It's off their very first album and is a song I listened to on repeat for many months. I've had the pleasure of seeing them perform it live, twice, in concert when I was living in Georgia. Moments I will never forget.

Not only is this song great, but the entire album is amazing. Flashback story here... This was the first cassette tape I ever bought. I had earned some allowance money and had gone shopping with my dad at Safeway and they sold cassettes. I wanted to buy my first one, and I saw this album and an album by Molly Hatchet. I decided this one looked much cooler and decided to go for it. Little did I know I'd be a Motley Crue fan forever, and that a few years later they would be my first concert ever as well.

Miley Cyrus
Open in Apple Music ↗ Listen elsewhere ↗

Simply the best song Miley Cyrus has ever done in my opinion. Though she's done a lot of great songs, this was done very early in her career. All the way back in her Hannah Montana days actually. To me, I don't think she'll ever do a better song!

Stryper

This is the song that got me into Stryper back in high school in the 80's. Oddly, I wanted to listen to them so I borrowed a cassette from a friend of mine who was a big Stryper fan. My reason for wanting to listen to them was their colors, black and gold. Which also happened to be our high school colors. The first song that played when I put the cassette tape into my radio at home that night was Honestly and I was instantly hooked. Still a huge fan today!
