Top 15 Songs of the Decade
Since every podcast, blog post, and organization I follow seemed to be putting out of the decade lists, I thought I would have some fun and put up some of my favorite songs, concerts, books, and moments from the last 10 years of my life.
You’ve found yourself looking at my top 15 songs. Music has always been an outlet for me when I’m having a bad day, or I need something to dance to. While I’m not very good at singing or playing any instrument, I still consider music to be a big part of my life. I enjoy the meaning of words, and so some of the songs listed may be some you have never heard of, but the lyrics were relatable to something going on in my story, or just were good for riding in the car.
