Day 28: A song by an artist with a voice that you love. Times of Trouble- Temple of the Dog. There are already 3 other songs by this person on my music challenge. It's obvious how much I love his voice. This song is gorgeous! Those who are bigger Pearl Jam fans may recognize the music from Footsteps. Anyway, Chris Cornell's voice has some sort of visceral affect on me. Love the end when he gets really into it and sings "...if somebody loved you and left you for dead..." Chris Cornell, Pearl Jam, Rage Against The Machine, Ray Charles, Alice In Chains, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Woodstock

Day 26: A song that makes you want to fall in love: First Train Home- Imogen Heap. I feel like this is a very random and possibly unusual choice lol but it stands out in my mind.
