The Song

I'm a little reluctant to post this because I'm afraid it may hurt someone's feelings. But truthfully, it's nothing personal, I just can't stand the song.

Music can have a good or bad impact on a blog. I'm not sure how long I'll keep the music on mine. I'll try to be good about changing it out every now and then, and try to have as much easy listening as I can so I won't cause the same problem I'm about to complain about.

First, let me give some history. The first time I heard this song I'm sitting in my kitchen. My grandmother is in town and she's working at the table not far from where I am. I'm browsing through some of my favorite blogs, occasionally adjusting the volume when I get to a blog with music. As I'm making my way through my blog list, with my speakers turned up my computer stars blasting a country tune. I manage to turn it down a little but not enough to miss the beginning of the song which made for an uncomfortable moment: "Since the day they got married, they'd been praying for a little baby... boooooooy."

I met my grandmother's eyes at that moment and all I could think to say was "that was weird." "Yea," she said. Can you saw AWKWARD? The song I speak of is Carrie Underwood's "All American Girl."

I swear, for awhile about half the blogs I read had that song on the playlist. It was kind of cute at first but now I hate it. I purposely mute my computer when I think there's a possibly I'll hear it. It's not your blog... It's the song. I'm not sure if it's the country sound, or just the bad first experience that ruined it for me.

On a happier note... If you want to put Carrie Underwood's "Ever Ever After" on... I could listen to that forever.
