Trip Lee: Satisfaction (Hedonist)


Lately I've been listening to one of my favorite Christian rappers, Trip Lee. His songs are great! Take this one, for example. Trip shows us that wealth, status, and worldly pleasures will never give us the true satisfaction that Christ offers. And he does it to a beat that just makes me wanna bounce! Or at least bob my head...

Battle at the Pyramid

Epic title matches epic music. In case you didn't know already, David Arnold did a magnificent job on the Stargate soundtrack. Listen for yourself!

Plumbline Collective: Ex (ft. JG Miles and Jay Remnant of iSix5)

 

I love this song because it reminds me where I came from, and that keeps me humble! I may not have been as bad as some of the guys in this song, but I was still "a wretched sinner in desperate need of His grace!" 
The chorus just blows my mind every time:
"I can't believe you died for me!
Ex-hypocrite, fornicator, slave to sin
At the point of the Cross I bow the knee
Ex-atheist, rebel, let the new begin!
You opened my eyes and I can finally see!
Grace through faith Lord, how can it be?
Ex-worshiper of self, I was addicted to me
Ex-hustler... but you set me free"

Skrillex: Bug Hunt


I realize that I haven't posted any 'real' dubstep so far (it's all been remixes, nothing original). This is also probably the first time I've ever listened to Skrillex, which is supposed to be really popular or something. *shrugs*

Anyway, this music is epic. It actually never played in the actual movie (why not???), but it is sweet nonetheless.

Space Jam: Final Match

I barely even remember watching Space Jam as a little kid, so don't judge.
What I do know is that this music improves anything you add it too! Working out? Doing dishes? Drawing? Manning an anti-aircraft turret? You can't go wrong with this tune!

Everything is Awesome!


A lot of people hate this song due to its annoying nature and uncanny ability to become stuck in your head... But I really enjoy it. The non-movie version of the song is good, but I prefer the version in the movie because the LEGO minifigs make it so much more funny. I mean, watch the arms of that policeman as he directs traffic. XD

"Cheese slopes! Cheese slopes! Come on, everybody!"

Sugar Rush!


I saw Wreck-it-Ralph the other night, and it was awesome. One of the side-effects was that I got addicted to this song!
Most of the lyrics are in Japanese, so here they are translated, not that I really care what they say:

Something in Your Eyes

I don't know anything about Shonlock or any of his other music. All I know is that I like this song. Do you like it as much as I do?

Timline: Age of Ancient Empires

There is a homeschool thingumy called classical Conversations, and my family is a part of it. I don't know much about it, since I'm not involved (due to having graduated), but I do know that it involves a LOT of singing to memorize things. My little siblings constantly play the songs around the house, and as  result, they get stuck in my head. The first several minutes of the "timeline" song (Age of Ancient Empires, not the Medieval one or any of the others) is the one that's really stuck in my head. My little sister sings it all around the house.


The first minute or so is kind of weak, but it gets a lot better, to the point where you can't help but sing along with it ("Israel falls to Assyria, Assyria falls to Babylon!), and find yourself repeating the lyrics throughout the day. Myceneaens!
