Music is good for my soul.
I just got my own "space" at work, and of course, I need to have a handful of CDs by my side to listen to. Therefore, I've been making a few different mix CDs. Recently, I've been obsessed with piano. It's always been a huge love of mine, but just recently, I seem to be searching high and low for more good piano tunes. I've gotten a few suggestions from people which I have loved - so thank you!
This is the current playlist I am hooked on. It incorporates a LOT of piano, but also a lot of the acoustic/folksie sound...well, with some other stuff thrown in there too.
9 Crimes Mix
"Nice, Naive, and Beautiful" - Plumb
"Lonelily" - Damien Rice
"Waiting For My Real Life To Begin" - Colin Hay (thanks Graham!)
"Can't Complain" - Nickel Creek
"Proof" - Colplay
"Go" - Plumb
"Thinking It Over" - Dana Glover
"Come Back Down" - Lifehouse
"Rooftops and Invitations" - Dashboard Confessional
"Hymn" - Cooper (thanks Joshua!)
"Shine" - Tina Malia
"All of My Days" - Alexi Murdoch
"So Long, So Long" - Dashboard Confessional (yay Adam Duritz!)
"9 Crimes" - Damien Rice
"Hallelujah" - Cooper
There are a lot of repeat artists on there I realize, but what can I say... I love their music! I suggest you check out Cooper on iTunes - really fun music. Check out his self-titled album, and also his album entitled "2." Sort of Ben Folds, meets Rufus Wainwright, meets Coldplay, meets Keane, meets Aqualung, meets The Fray. Hahaha... Yes... There's a little bit of all in there! Also, check out Alexi Murdoch - a Nick Drake kind of fella.
Ok friends... That's it for now. Music updates to come in the near future. I have a CD in the mail by a Canadian band called Pilate, and I'm also hoping to order the new Mars Hill worship album rather soon.
Until then, keep the music suggestions coming!

I hear the Ben Folds likeness, but not so much the Rufus Wainright. Any specific song remind you of him?
woo hoo! piano music. so happy to see that list.. I will definitely use it - especially for a road trip to nebraska for a wedding this weekend.
thankyouverymuch.
Tory very nice props on the music. Keep listening and have a wonderful Christmas.
Thanks for commenting, friends... Those of you who have both commented AND sent me emails! I haven't been getting a lot of comments recently, and I was wondering if it was either A) Because the comment button is a little harder to find, or B) My blog is just that boring.
But I appreciate the feedback. Thanks a bunch!
Amos Lee yes, Damian Rice yes, ben folds yes, rufus yes.. everything yes.
I just wanted to let you know how much your article "Duck duck goose" blessed me. You are a great encouragment. I hope I run into you some day. If you ever move to seattle, we should be friends.
Big fan of "Lonelily." Not so big of fan of his new album.
