Great Tunes

Last night as I was running, I was listening to my mp3 player. Awhile back I went through all of my old cds and put all the songs on there that had upbeat tempos that would be good to run to. I haven't reached the end of the songs on there yet. But last night, I got to the Jars of Clay songs.

Now, these are cds from when I was in middle school and high school, but the music on those cds are GREAT! While running, I was singing my head off (while huffing and puffing). I think the lyrics of their songs are so great, and the music and harmonies seem genius to me. It even got me thinking about writing music again (not that I've written any, but I've thought about it before).

I'm not sure if I like these songs so much just because I knew them way back when, or if I heard them now for the first time I would like them just as much. But all I know is that I had a blast last night running to some of my old favorites.

It made it a good run.

I love Jars of Clay and I still love to listen to them! They are great songs and I think the nostalgia of them makes me like them a little bit more too!

Glad you had a good run - I love it when I put new songs on my MP3 player!

We love Jars of Clay also. Of course, they remind me of when Josh and I were first married! We used to listen to them all the time in our little apartment. We had the Flood album. I have them on my iPod also! I think they are great songs, and we would love them just as much if we heard them new today... but nostalgia does add to the sweetness.
