Geeky's Theme Song... cue Star Trek Title Sequence

Boldly going where no man has gone before... the mind of Lea Barrymire. ROFL

Hmmm... theme song. I've spent WAY too long thinking about this and really nothing has popped out at me as the over all, fundamental 'Geeky Hotness' song. So, instead I'm sharing my 'mood' music with you. :)

I'm a jack-of-all-trades, wearer-of-many-hats, multitasking extraordinaire. When I write I like to have music in the background. Most of the time I end up pairing the songs to my mood or what's happening in the story. Here are some of my favorites...

For that angry sex, fight scene or all around bitch moment:

Disturbed- Down with the Sickness

Or something like Prodigy's Firestarter

If I'm in the mood for some 'chick' music I tend to go to early 90's girls. Natalie Imbruglia, All Saints, Aqua and No Doubt. I spent 3 years listening to Europe's choice of music while in Germany. :) By the way, I love this song, and I've told my kids it's about butt-dialing bwhahahaha

Now, if all I'm doing is driving around doing the mom thing I'm all about the 80's rock. Or, 'Classic Rock'. UGH Makes me feel old.

Well, and I had a HUGE crush on Jon Bon Jovi... BIG crush. :P

Okay, so you get the idea, right? I don't have a genre of music that I LOVE. I pretty much like anything out there. I haven't really been into country, sorry... 

BUT I've recently started listening to Steffen Hughes cover a bunch of songs. He's a hottie, gonna be on a cover for me, so... *clears throat* I'm not stalking him. Not at all. Promise.

If you want more details about the book he's on stop over here: www.leabarrymire.com/books--winning-isaac It's releasing October 23rd!!! I'll be posting more info on my Facebook page, too, as we get closer.

My theme music...for the moment

So when I was thinking about my theme music nothing good popped into my mind. I mean, I do have a song, every good crime fighting ninja does. But what plays on a loop in my head wouldn't be considered "theme music".

I played the violin in the 6th grade and my favorite song was called The Indian Waltz. Yeah, I know, having a dreary violin solo playing in the back of your mind wouldn't be a great motivator for anything, but I find that I hum it all the time and it has a calming effect on me.

For this assignment that song just wouldn't do. So I went with the next best thing. The song that I turn up and bounce to whenever it comes on. I'm almost too ashamed to admit it because the singer has been losing her mind lately but here it goes:

Griff's Partying Theme Song

Imagine just for a minute that it was song by someone with an ounce of sense and while we're at it, a good singing voice. I love the lyrics. It reminds me of the good old days of hanging out with girlfriends and shutting down the clubs. Drink in the right hand and left hand in the air kind of fun

So take a minute. Listen to the words and try to remeber those good old days. Which may actually be this past weekend for some!
