Sing Like We Use To, Dance Like We Want To

Morning Friends!! I hope everyone is having an excellent and much needed rainy Thursday. Since the training session is still going on at work, I got a nice little treat when I got to the office this morning.
What is it about buttery, flaky french delights that make them so yummy and yet still not good for you? Oh, right. Butta. I seriously contemplated smearing a small packet of butter on this, even though I know it is made with mostly butter. What can I say? If I'm going to clog my arteries, I want to make it count.

On this rainy day, I thought it would be a good idea to share some musical loves of mine. I introduced you to Needtobreathe a while back when I bought a ticket to their concert. But they have been hard at work on some new stuff and have been playing it out on the tour.

So I thought it'd be a nice change of pace to have another VIDEO MEDLEY!!!Get. Excited. Two of the songs I will introducing you to today are available for purchase on iTunes. So I'm gonna say go ahead and get that immediately and prepare for your heart to skip beats as you blast them in your car.

Without further ado...Needtobreathe.

"Drive All Night"

"Beg the Book to turn the page cause I get stuck where the villians get away. Somewhere in this wretched tale there must be a line where the victims get his way. Just one time. Oh, I'll get mine."

Don't mind the awkward camera man. But if he happens to distract you, just close your eyes. That is what I do when the videos are poor, but the music is phenom.

"Slumber"
"Sing like we use to. Dance like we want to. Taste of the breakthrough. Open wide."

"A Place Only You Can Go"
HOLY COWSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this. Be still my heart. It makes me feel all gooey. And I want you to love it so bad.

So in order to have the same reaction I did, watch it at least 3 times. The first time, you will be in shock, but joyful. The second time, you will laugh at the pure genius of what they do. The third time, you will scream because it all just kind of hits you...joy, love, musical genius, the words of the song, the added extra, his face (if you're a guy, this may not work for you, and I'm sorry for that). It all just works so beautifully.

Mark your calendars. Needtobreathe. The Reckoning (the new album). September 20, 2011.

I will be at the store at midnight waiting in line like boys wait for Madden. It's the same concept, yet I feel like less people will be there...So you should come stand with me in line.

Tell me what you think of the videos. Do you already have a love for Needtobreathe? Is this your first exposure? What do you think? Leave a comment....
