Music lover

Matt comes home from Afghanistan Saturday-ish and I can't wait. I'm driving to Atlanta to meet him at the airport, a 12 hour drive. Although since I have plans to meet friends for dinner on Friday night, and food motivates me- I'm hoping to do the drive in 9.5. Because I have limited music capacity (in the form of a Nano) I've spent the last hour and a half crafting the perfect play list. This means sifting through 7,000 songs and who knows how many albums. Which is great because it forces me to revisit some forgotten favorites.

Without ado- top 5 albums I'm excited to listen to on the way to Georgia:
1. The National- High Violet
2. Pixies- Doolittle
3. Girl Talk- All Day
4. The Magnetic Fields- 69 Love Songs
5. R.E.M- Green (This has been my favorite album of all time since evers)

And top 5 singles:
1. Phoenix- 1901
2. Major Lazer- I'll Make Ya
3. Jay-Z- Big Pimpin'
4. Best Coast- Goodbye
5. The Soft Pack- Answer To Yourself

(Honorable mention to Rod Stewart-Maggie May because I'm listening to it right now and wow, what a great song)
