Stranded on an Island (Music Edition)
So we’ve all seen the hypothetical “if you were on an island and could only bring five things, what would they be?” Well, this is the music version. What ten albums would you have to have with you? Obviously, this is my list and it is in no particular order.
Pink Floyd: The Wall
Almost everyone’s essential Pink Floyd, and why wouldn’t it be? I also love the movie.
Tom Petty: Wildflowers
I was such a Tom Petty fangirl when I was little. This is my favorite, closely followed by Full Moon Fever.
Marilyn Manson: Mechanical Animals
Love this album from start to finish.
Avenged Sevenfold: Nightmare
It used to be City of Evil, but I like the diversity from track to track on Nightmare.
Tremonti: All I Was
Another one I can play without skipping a single song ❤
Collective Soul’s self-titled album
My other original band crush ❤
Disturbed: Down With the Sickness
Though I’d hate not having their version of “Sound of Silence.”
The Beatles: Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
Gotta have something by the Fan Four and my mom used to sing me “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds.”
Alter Bridge: Blackbird
Um, duh!
Lynam: Slave to the Machine
Still my favorite by them and always will be.
Feel free to make your own list! 🙂
Song of the Week: “Tourniquet”
So after hearing that Marilyn Manson is coming to town in April, I just had to honor them in a Song of the Week post. I have been waiting 15 years to see this band; needless to say, I am practically dying from excitement!
This has always been one of my favorites from them. In fact, I’m fairly positive this was the first song I fell in love with…even before “The Beautiful People.” ❤

Song of the Week: “Dope Hat”

Halloween Playlist
After introducing him to several of the bands that I listen to, I was told one day by my former boss that my collection consists of “vampire music.” That description made me giggle, but I know what he meant. I do like a lot of, shall we say, darker songs. For that reason, I was given the shared responsibility of compiling a playlist for a Halloween party. This is what I came up with. (Note: not all of them are creepy, sexy, and/or demonic. Lol. I have a wide variety of tastes.)
