Oh, man. You can ignore that last entry, lol. I'm really not that depressing in real life, believe me! I just get in those moods at night, especially after a long day's work. I'm a glass half-full kind of gal. I'm hopeful for things, optimistic, and grateful. So for today, I say to you, "Happy first day of Summer!" Enjoy the sunshine, roll down those car windows, and let that summer breeze flow through you body! Confession: Mandy Moore's latest album, Wild Hope, is really good. I've actually been looking forward to its release because she collaborated with The Weepies (I love Deb Talan and Steve Tannen!). So naturally, I went out and got it. It's nowhere near that bubblegum pop from back in the day. She's matured and I have to say, she probably grew up the best from that pack of girls. It's folksy, it's catchy, and earthy. Plus, she's earned points in my book for working with The Weepies. I swear, if you just heard the record without knowing who the artist was, you'd think, "Oh! A new indie folk artist!" True story. The point is, it's a solid album so have a listen! |
I watched MM's new music video and found it quite quirky. I used to be a fan and want to be her fan again, but something about her voice turns me off. But, the reviews have been promising (yours and trent.blogspot's). I'm off to preview them on iTunes.
