So without further adieu, here are they are (in no particular order)!

  1. India Arie — “Beautiful Day”  Great way to start off your day!
  2. The Lion King — “Circle of Life”  This used to be my alarm song & I definitely listened to it and sang along while sailing across the Sea of Cortez
  3. Smokey Robinson & The Miracles — “Mickey’s Monkey” It’s pretty much impossible to listen to this song without wanting to dance or at the very least clap!
  4. DB Boulevard — “Point of View” For when things aren’t going your way, and you need a change in perspective or want to dance it out!
  5. Naughty Boy & Emeli Sande — “Wonder” Just found out about this one from Arianna. Awesome song and reminder about who we all are and it’s great to dance to (if you hadn’t noticed, I also love dancing)!
  6. Dierks Bentley & The Punch Brothers — “Pride (In the Name of Love) The song that moved me from dreaming about the banjo to buying one.
  7. India Arie — “There’s Hope” An awesome song about hope, gratitude, and smiling! India Arie’s my absolute favorite!
  8. The Drifters — “Up on the Roof” A great oldie for when you need an escape after a long day.
  9. Florence + The Machine — “Shake it Out” When it’s time to move on from someone or something–awesome dance around your house or running song!
  10. Brave — “Touch the Sky” I listened to this song on repeat when I decided to go on my round-the-world adventure. I ran around Golden Gate Park, biked to the marina for my sailing lessons, and everything in-between!
