Intentionally Katie: Friday Favorites - My Top 10 Favourite Songs

4. Against All Odds, by Phil Collins. He did a live album when I was in college and it reignited my love for this song. Because I was 7-8 years old when it was first released and I guess I was still into Cindy Lauper or Residence and Oats back then. 5. Revelation Song, by Kari Jobe. This is my favorite version of this song. The link is a longer version, but it's powerful. Love it. Chills. 6. Round Here, by Counting Crows.

Instead of waking up to an alarm during my senior division of college, I woke up to this CD gently playing "Round Here." I continued getting up and refined as the following few songs would play, then I'd head off to class. Hearing this song brings me back to my sorority room, on my top bunk, snuggled in my navy and hunter green flannel down comforter. Every. Single. Morning. Ah.memories. 7. November Rain, by Guns 'n' Roses. Listening to this form on You Tube (after searching it to grab the link) took me directly backwards to high school. I Loved this song. I loved that it was 9 minutes long. I loved that the see was such a production. I loved Guns 'n' Roses from their first album in 7th grade. For some reason, as I've been typing this post, this song kept popping into my head, so I decided it must be included. 8. Hello, by David Cook. Yes, from American Idol. Again, this version of the Lionel Richie song gives me chills. I loved the arrangement, Dog. 9. It's Business Time, by Flight of the Conchords. This is a comedy team, not a music group, but every once in a man I get the tune stuck in my head. Especially when I see the term "business socks." This and the Toyota commercial with the song "Swagger Wagon" will pop into my head at the weirdest times. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you must dawn on the links for a laugh. 10. Holla Back Girl, by Gwen Stefani. I name this name was also probably over-played in its day, but a re-mixed version was on a CD that many of the gym instructors use in class. Every time I see it, I get pumped up and work out but a wee bit harder. It makes me very merry in step aerobics, that's for sure. So that's my list. I could have listed many, many songs on K-Love Christian Radio. That's all I try to, unless I'm at the gym or something's playing on the speakers while I'm shopping. I'm pretty out of touch with mainstream music, but my kids and I can sing most of the lyrics of any song played on K-Love. What's your favorite song???
