I usually just end up putting on Rumours but, their eponymous '75 album has some real bangers too...
Damn it Lindsey, why'd you have to be such an asshole. I really like your music.

Fleetwood Mac - Blue Letter

If he wasn't such a asshole, Rumours would not exist

Day 14: A song with the word red in the title or lyrics

Love Is Mystical - Cold War Kids

And when my heart won't break
An empty space between my lungs
And when my knees won't shake
I'll drink to find inspiration
'Cause I'm a red blooded man
But I can't see behind the sun (I can't see behind the sun)
A supernatural plan
Is coming to meet me now

A supernatural plan
Is coming to meet me now

God I love this band.

Day 14: A song with the word red in the title or lyrics
This song easily could have been for the cheesy lyrics day. But, just as I did the song I picked for that day, I love it.

“I'm a good ole boy with a bleeding heart
Just a homegrown hick with a hybrid car
I think y'all means all and I know we all
Just wanna know that we belong

There's a lot more color in the mix
When you're loud and proud out in the sticks
I am what I am, you get what you get
Yeah, I guess I'm a red state Blueneck”

Chris Housman - Blueneck

Blue Dress - Aly & AJ

I bought a blue dress for you
And I got a new pair of shoes, too

I don't care who you've been with
I don't need to know who they are
I just care that you show up at all

I bought a blue dress for you

Blue Christmas

 

[Wonderer67]

I should probably pop this into the thread “a litster you appreciate today” but just wanna let you know how much I appreciate this thread.

It’s a good challenge, makes you think and it’s interesting to see everyone’s different musical takes on the theme.

I can also imagine it’s a hell of a lot of work.

So thank you, @morelikeasong
