That is a good list, but I don't like Don't Worry, Be Happy.
journey's greatest hits
A good variety of good songs...not many from this list!
We are too busy chatting to worry about music
It would be fun to dance to some of these. One that I love is Put a Ring on It. yeah! The soundtrack from Madagascar 3 might be another.
We love country music and Mexican music so it would be mostly those things.
Anything by Jason Mraz would be good to me. Ohh and I love Adam Lambert.
But those songs sound like a good playlist to me.
The Star Wars soundtrack.
I like those but I personally wouldn't play them...I love me some early pop and hard metal. LOL I know, totally two different genres. haha
