"Danza Kuduro" Don Omar
Was this song also influenced by the one below? I have hunch yes. All three would make a killer mashup.

"Walk On" U2
This song, featured on the Songs For Japan charity album, was playing in Shinjuku today. Japan's spirit is strong.

"Around the World" ATC
A noise frequently played over the announcement system at Asakusa Station starts with the same eight notes as this song. Hilarious. Oh, and currently, the "it" in this song could be me.

"Summon the Heroes" John Williams
My form may not have been that of an olympian while swimming in the Beijing Water Cube warmup pool, but singing this theme in my head during laps sure made me feel like one.

"Not Over You" Gavin DeGraw
The new single from the upcoming album of one of my all-time favorites! It's looking to be another stellar release. I especially can't wait to hear some acoustic tracks.

"Leaning On The Everlasting Arms" Iris Dement
I never thought Iris Dement would ever be a featured artist on this blog, but this track has served as a strangely soothing lullaby for me the past few nights. I give it a listen as I'm laying in bed, set the alarm for the next day, and drift away.

"Handyman" James Taylor
The radiologist at McCormick Hospital regularly played this song on her computer and it has stuck with me.

"How I Go" Yellowcard
Oh my, a whole week to catch up on!
The volunteers were watching Big Fish the morning of my Thailand departure and this song (inspired by the movie) was going through my mind. I also think more people should know this duet that features Natalie Maines of Dixie Chicks fame.

"Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head" B.J. Thomas
The pianist in McCormick's Hospital was playing this song today. Appropriately so, because the rainy season has started early.

"A Biologist's Mother's Day Song" Cadamole
This song and video is truly brilliant. Mom, hopefully using it as a tribute will make up for my not creating it. Thanks again for the mitochondria.

"Babyface" The Elected
Follow the link, then keep surfing the net in a different tab. Why? Because the song will be difficult to enjoy if you're being stared down the whole time you're listening to it.

"If You Come Back" Blue
The pediatrician I'm shadowing played this song in her car while driving me to lunch. I absolutely recognized it, but had never known what it was called or who it was by! Now I can see it becoming a total guilty pleasure.

"Citywide Rodeo" The Weepies
Easily my favorite of all of their songs which I think sometimes gets overshadowed.
