Since I've finished my 101 Faves series for Music Monday, I thought I would do something complete different. I turned on my iPod, hit shuffle, and recorded my first 5 songs.

"Feel Again" by OneRepublic (Native)

"Eyes Wide Open" by Gotye (Making MIrrors)

"Dakota" by O.A.R. (Stories of a Stranger)

"Mrs. O" by The Dresden Dolls (Yes, Virginia)

"The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most" by Dashboard Confessional (MTV Unplugged)

Today's Music Monday will be the last until after the New Year. Next week, I am starting my traditional holiday break to spend time with family and friends and recharge for 2014. But never fear, I'll be on the lookout for some great new music during that time period.
