BC #4: My Favorites On My iPod

**Let me first start by saying that I am liking this Blog Challenge thing a lot more than I thought I would. I like how there are several people partaking in this challenge now and yet we all find our own unique way to talk on a subject. I like reading the other people's blogs so much that I decided to add all the other blogs (I am aware of) doing this challenge to the side bar of my blog. It just got kinda hard to sort through what-not to get their links. Maybe they'll stay forever, maybe it will be just for the duration of this challenge. But they're there, and I thought I should address that for whatever reason.**

Some time ago (like the first year I blogged, I believe), I did a post about how embarrassed I was when someone picked up my iPod and looked at my "Top 25 Most Played." I remember Ace of Base made the list, TWICE. I can't remember what other embarrassing music made the list and I tried my hardest to find that post but it must be hidden in some other post randomly.

But the point is, I have tried since that day to improve the quality of music I listen to because A) that's embarrassing and B) there is good music out there that will blow away Ace of Base.

(Though, I am kinda feeling at this moment that I want to bring back Ace of Base, I mean, it's a classic, right?)

So I've worked hard for two years (I believe) and I have made great strides. Now, some songs I am not proud of, they are just DAMN GOOD to work out to. I am going to put an asterisk before those songs, so you can tell the difference. :)
