A Stroll through Suburbia

I really enjoy walking. I don't it for the exercise; I do it to " breathe". During my walks, I get to turn my mind off. I put my earphones in and just relax. So here is my soundtrack:

Thievery Corporation- Until the Morning- This song has just a really unique sound, all the different sounds meld together and flow really well. The voice really penetrates through the music and puts you in a trance. I have to be careful when I am listening because if not I will just wonder through traffic like a zombie.

Led Zepplin- When the Levee Breaks- This song hypnotizes me. The first thing I hear are the drums, Bonham beats his way into the soul. Next the harmonica, the echo of the thing really just entraps me. The guitar riff is a constant which is like the glue, it unites everything. Then it doesn't get much more hypnotizing than Robert Plants voice.

Beck- Loser- This song isn't really that special compared to the others. Truthfully, it just makes me feel cool. I really want to wear sunglasses when I listen to this song. This song is simply to make me feel good about myself; which I guess is the important part right.

Lost in the World- Kanye West feat. Bon Iver- Once again the drums, maybe their the key. This song is crazy well produced, one of the best uses of auto-tune ever. The really surprising part is how well the working in of Gil Scott- Heron, who is pretty awesome. It just works, it feels nice. Also, I like Bon Iver. Does that make me a hipster?

James Taylor- Carolina in my Mind- This might sound a little fake or cliche, but I can't describe the feeling of being on the last stretch of road until my house and this song comes on Pandora. It almost made me tear up. James Taylor just has an incredible voice. Just listen to it, it's beautiful.

I didn't really see anyone else doing this, so I thought it would be fun. As a farewell: blam, bop, skidoosh. Im out.

Edit- Sorry about the links, all the songs are on the internet ( man technology is awesome).
P.S- If the links work, ignore this(obviously)
P.P.S. - Good night and blam.
