Friday Eye Candy: Music Crush Edition

So, I’m riding in the car today and that Miley Cyrus song comes on.  You know the one.

Party in the USA” (I’m linking it in case you are lucky enough to live in a Miley-free world.)

As much as it pains me to say this, I actually like the song.  There it is. It’s out there now and there is no taking it back.

I blame my husband.  He had it on his iPod first and I made so much fun of him for it.  That was last week.   What can I say?  It just started growing on me.   I know, I know…I’m so ashamed to admit this to you after writing this post.

In my defense, you have to admit that it is quite catchy.  And despite the fact that she does everything in her power to ruin the song with the irritating sound of her voice, it still ROCKS!!

I’m hanging my head in shame right now.

In order to redeem myself I will share two of my newest musical crushes today.

First, we have Mat Kearney.  I fell in love with his song “Closer to Love” the first time I heard it and he is pretty easy on the eyes too.

Mmmmm…freckles.  Have I mentioned that I have a thing for guys with freckles?

Here’s the video in case you haven’t seen it:

He definitely has a Chris Martin (Coldplay) sound.  What do you think?

Next up on my musical crush list is Parachute.

I just saw the “She Is Love” video for the first time today and I was immediately smitten for the lead singer.  Check it out:

The song is so romantic and OMG I’m feeling all melty after listening to his voice.  And dear god, are his lips not the most kissable lips you’ve ever seen?????

The other guys in the band aren’t too shabby either.

Who are your current musical crushes?

What is your favorite song right now?

Miley song: Love it or hate it?

    Favorite song right now is I gotta feeling by the Black Eyed Peas. No real crushes at the moment, and don’t particularly like Miley song.

    I’m sorry to say that I got dragged to Hannah Montana movie and ended up buying the DVD and downloading some songs! I don’t particularly like that song but my favourite is Butterfly – so beautiful.

    My current musical crush is Danyl Johnson who wowed us in the first show of X Factor (think American Idol) this year – amazing voice and drop. dead. gorgeous!

    Favourite song? Hmmm. I could go on forever but for right now it’s Shakira and ‘She Wolf’ – great going out song!

    Um… I like the Miley song, too. We listen to a LOT of Miley/Hannah Montana in this house.

    Love love love Mat Kearney. His voice is so soothing.

    Current music crush is Chris Mann. I have a strong feeling you’d like his music (and the guy is VERY easy on the eyes!)… let me know what you think!

    I’m loving ‘No Surprise’ by Daughtry right now.

    As much as I don’t want to like Miley, I just do. My daughter has Party in the USA on her ipod and it kept growing on me so I added it to my ipod the other day.

    Sadly, I could not name a current singer or song!

    I’m not someone who is able to say who sang what song. I do have an ipod and I do have tons of oldies on it. I like oldies. I can name a few artists but that’s about it LOL.

    Well I think it’s no surprise my number one musical crush is John Mayer, also LOVE Jack Johnson.

    As for current favorite song… ummm… I’ve been on a bit of a musical hiatus for awhile. We stopped listening to music in the car awhile ago and so now the only music I really listen to is whatever is on Ellen. So I guess the song I’ve been listening to the most lately is that song by Pitbull? ::shrugs::

    And Miley… yeah I really can’t stand her. I don’t think I’ve heard the song and my internet connection is being to sluggish to bother trying to listen now. At least that’s my excuse. Really, I just don’t like her.

    the parachute boy is very cute. Is he obscenely young? should i feel wrong about liking him?? both really nice songs. Always good to be introduced to new music you may otherwise not find.

    personally, still waiting for a certain record release on October 6………..

    I’m John Mayer fan myself.
    I don’t have a favorite song. There are too many. I’ve always got music on and I have a wide variety of taste.
    I don’t know anything about Miley’s song.

    No real music crush actually, just like certain music. Wait, you mean there is music beside The Wiggles and Laurie Berkner? Hmmm. . . it’s been so long since I have listened to me music.

    *hangs head in shame* I like the new Miley song. A lot. I kind of hate myself a little when I’m listening to the radio because in the back of my mind there’s always a part of me wishing it would come on!
