Music is life.

It is 3 am and instead of sleeping like a normal human being I am on here typing away. I find it hard to sleep at what is considered a normal time lately. I am becoming more and more of a night owl, only to realize that there is no one to talk to at 3 am. My room is quiet because I am too lazy to walk to the other side to turn on the televison. If I can not sleep, why not sign in and write about not being able to sleep?

In other news, my sister, cousin and I went to see New Kids on the Block and Backstreet Boys (or as they call themselves NKOTBSB) the other night. They collaberated and were in concert together. Let me tell you, I felt like I was 12 years old again. The minute I saw Brian Litrell on stage performing I immediately fell back in love with him. Who can blame me? He is just so cute! I have to admit I have not been as faithful of a fan as I could or should be. I have been slacking. I did not know that AJ made a song. I figure this is a good thing though because the music video for it was just insane. We came to the conclusion that it was made just before he went into rehab. I did not know Nick was still doing a solo career. I have to admit, though he is not my favorite, I would definitely purchase his C.D. I did not know that Howie attempted to go solo. Of course it was only an attempt because, in my opinion, he is not a very strong performer. He sings well in the group but does not do well by himself.

Okay I went off on a little rant there. I was thinking earlier that it is nice to revisit memories that you made in your childhood. It is comforting for me to listen to my old boy band albums because I have many good memories attatched to them. I can sing almost every song. I confess as soon as an old Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, or Hanson songs comes across my IPOD I cannot help but sing at the top of my lungs. There are a few songs that I will even dance to partially. "Bye Bye Bye" comes to mind when I say this. It is impossible to listen to this song without waving bye bye bye when the chorus comes around.

I have always said that a girl's first true love is that of her favorite boy band. Okay, I know not every girl was a teeney bopper. Not every girl even liked boy bands. There were a few that managed to beat that phase. In their case their first true love is probably in whatever band they were crazy about growing up. Or maybe they just genuinely liked the music to an extent where they did not need eye candy.

I genuinely appreciate music. Everyone has a favorite song. Everyone has a favorite artist. Everyone has that go to song you put on when you are feeling down. Can you imagine a world without music? I think it would be so dull and so boring. I love relating how I am feeling to the words I hear in popular songs. There is a song for every possible feeling in the world.
