Happy New Year! So I’ve been putting up youtube clips of songs that I deem “Perfect” on facebook. I got to thinking…I need a “Perfect” song list. A playlist of sorts that defines how I’m feeling everyday at certain minutes of the day. Certain hours of the day. A soundtrack, if you will. I’m sure some of you haven’t heard these songs. I’m sure some of you have. But they are entertaining. And they are guaranteed to get you to do two things: either tap the toes, or cry in frustration. So. without further Sade Adu, here is my list. In no particular order… no you didn’t ask for it, but I am going to do it anyway.
