Music Tuesday #29

For this week's song I've chosen one of my all-time favorites! The reason I chose this one this week, is because I just one of my all-time favorite movies that I always seem to associate with this song!

She's All That with Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachael Leigh Cook I found out last week is on Netflix, so I HAD to watch it right away of course! I used to own this movie, and it had taken me FOREVER to find it in stores, and then a friend borrowed and never ended up returning it, because he lost it, so I haven't had the chance to see it in a couple of years!
So for this week's song...


Kiss Me by Sixpence None the Richer!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

      AWESOME!! Love that version!! You know I think I have heard it before, but the music video made all the more better! :)

      And Hayley looks so young!!! I wouldn't have recognized her if you hadn't said she was in that video!

      I love pop and punk rock music, so I was super stoked to find New Found Glory covering one of my favourite movie's signature track (who doesn't love this movie!).
      The video is kind of old actually, from 2007 already (it's kind of scary thinking that that's half a decade ago. Does saying five years ago make it any better?)

      lol, yes five years ago makes it sound better! Jeez time seriously flies!!

      And yes, I like some punk rock pop stuff, and I've heard a few things by New Found Glory that I really liked. I have a friend who used to really like them! :)

      Thanks for sharing!! I actually just listened to that version as I'm writing this comment! :)

    I love this song. They play it at all the Laker Games during the "Kiss Cam".

      Oh yeah! I was just watching "How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days" with Kate Hudson and Matthew McConahey and I believe this song played during the kiss cam scene of the Knicks game they went for their first official date! :)

Marriage Vacation by Pauline Turner Brooks (aka Jo Piazza)

Hey Everyone! I finished another book!  I bought this one along with Shrill , when I found an Amazon Books store in NYC last week! I cannot believe I already finished both in less than a week, when I hadn't finished a single book since last July! From Goodreads : In season four of Darren Star's hit TV Land series Younger , the editors of Empirical Press are shocked and deeply moved when they read Marriage Vacation , an autobiographical novel by the publisher's estranged wife, Pauline Turner Brooks.  Knowing the book will cause a sensation, they decide they must publish it.  Now you can read what the hype is about. To find herself...she might lose everything. By all appearances, Kate Carmichael had the perfect life: two adorable daughters, a pre-war town house on the Upper East Side, and a husband who ran one of the most successful publishing companies in New York.  But when Kate attends the wedding of two of her oldest friends, and reconnect...

The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick

I saw the movie Hugo (directed by Martin Scorsese) right before the New Year.  Let me back track, and let you know that usually I am NOT a fan of Oscar movies.  If I'm being honest, I find them to be boring.  However, this year has seemed to bring quite a few more exceptions than normal.  Among those are: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 , The Help , and Hugo.   I fell in love with Hugo .  I thought it so beautifully done.  The music, the characters, the story.  I found myself crying even at points that wouldn't necessarily make you cry.  I honestly, didn't know the movie was based on a book; but when I found out at the end, I knew I had to read it. The winner of the Children's Caldecott Award, The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick is nothing like anything I've ever read.  Normally, when I read I imagine the story that I am reading  unfolding in my head like a movie; but with The Invention of Hugo ...

The Hunger Games Should be BANNED!!

Image
Okay, let me begin by saying, you may find my title misleading...but guess what? It got you to read this post! :) PLEASE CONTINUE READING!! I really think something needs to be known!  The Hunger Games should NOT be allowed in elementary schools!!  In fact, I don't even think it should be allowed in middle school either! This is the whole point to this post! I read the series last year, and enjoyed them.  I thought the story was definitely very original.  I am going to be making a few lists in this post, and here is my first... Pros about The Hunger Games : -original story -great characters -details were great...sometimes a bit too much actually -metaphorically speaking, the message I got out of this book is people are selfish and that they would do anything to survive, and while this isn't a great message, I think it is true about people (at least quite a bit around the world...NOT all!! but quite a few) Cons about The Hunger Games : -I think my #1 c...
