Joshua Radin feat. Schuyler Fisk "Paperweight" -- First encountered this song on the Last Kiss soundtrack. Fell in love with Joshua Radin right then. His music is just gorgeous.
Relient K "Be My Escape" -- A slightly odd choice, but I really love the lyrics to this song. Relient K was on heavy rotation in my classroom a few years ago. I always had requests and even got some students singing along. Regular and acoustic versions for your enjoyment (I think I like the acoustic version better...).
Dido "Here with Me" -- One of my absolute favorites. I adore this song so much. Every time I listen, I return to the late 1990s and it makes me feel happy.
Tyler Hilton "I Believe in You" -- A fairly new discovery. Nevertheless, I love Hilton's voice. A couple of different versions for you to enjoy.
Josh Kelley "Two Cups of Coffee" -- The only way to listen to this song is the acoustic version. I saw Josh Kelley sometime around 2005? and he debuted this song as an acoustic version. I immediately fell in love with it. I had to include an acoustic version for you.

Jewel "Foolish Games" -- Such an ethereal song. I can't get over it!
Natalie Imbruglia "Torn" -- Another great sing along song. You absolutely must watch the second video. I almost died laughing.

Today's theme is song's with "She" in the title. After listing my 101 favorite songs, I found four songs with "She" in the title. Weird! So they get their own day.
The Fray "She Is" -- As much as I love "Cable Car," I really love this track.
Panic at the Disco "She Had the World" -- Am I the only one that actually liked his Panic album? I loved the oddness of the songs. It reminded me of The Killer's Sam's Town album.

Matchbox Twenty "3 am" -- One of those songs that I still know every word to... I loved early Matchbox Twenty. I even saw them in concert at Ball State in 2000.
No Doubt "Sunday Morning" -- While many would go to "Just a Girl" or "Spiderwebs" from Tragic Kingdom, I always go to "Sunday Morning." For added fun, a live version.
The Offspring "The Kids Aren't Alright" -- Another band I saw in concert during college. I love their older stuff, but this song holds a special place in my heart. Too many of the situations in this song reminded me of people I knew in high school. Kind of sad, but I still love it.
Hole "Celebrity Skin" -- Another concert band. I was supposed to see them with Marilyn Manson, but they dropped out of the tour. Thankfully they came a few months later during a Christmas concert with Orgy and two others bands. Okay, it may not have been a Christmas concert, but it was four bands...

The Killers "Somebody Told Me" -- I was working at Best Buy when this was released and it was constantly on rotation in the store. Every time it came on, all the cashiers started dancing. Plus, they were awesome in concert. The live video sounds like what I heard when I saw them this past December.

Howie Day "Ghost" -- Day adds great little parts to this song on the live version. It sounds more natural to me.
Flogging Molly "Float" -- I was supposed to see them last summer, but we moved before the concert. I would still love to see them.

Anna Nalick "Wreck of the Day" -- Another great sing-along sad song.
Haley James Scott "Halo" -- Yeah, yeah it's from One Tree Hill. But that doesn't mean it isn't an awesome song.

Alkaline Trio "Calling All Skeletons" -- Saw them in concert with Blink 182 and A New Found Glory. And one of their friends was an acquaintance in college. Great song!
Linkin Park "Crawling" -- My hands-down favorite Linkin Park song. Now one of my boys loves them.

Kate Voegele "One Way or Another" -- I saw her in concert opening for Josh Kelley (before being on One Tree Hill). I love her upbeat music, but this isn't one of those. But it's my favorite song of hers.
Christina Perri "Jar of Hearts" -- So amazing...
KT Tunstall "Ashes" -- She's another interesting voice. I love the different, almost bluesy quality to it.

Dresden Dolls "Sing" -- How much do I love this band? Bunches and bunches. I thought about putting "Coin Operated Boy" or "Good Day" on here, but I love "Sing" and its uplifting message. So here you go...
Regina Spektor "Apres Moi" -- Love her bridge in Russian. It just sounds so amazing. I still need to get her newest album.
Amanda Palmer "Astronaut" -- One half of The Dresden Dolls, all by herself. I am part of the world that loves her.
Ben Folds "Narcolepsy" -- Has collaborated with Amanda Palmer and Regina Spektor, weird coincidence. Plus, I saw him in concert with the Fort Wayne Philharmonic and he rocked the Embassy.
