"The Thunder Rolls" by Garth Brooks Tribute

Listen on Apple Music

What artist or band changed your music taste forever? Pick your favorite song of theirs.

I couldn't find the exact song within Crucial Tracks.

But, I think this is the first country song that I started liking. Garth Brooks is my favorite country artist and I really respect that he took some time off of recording to be with his family.

"I Don't Want to Be" by Gavin DeGraw

Listen on Apple Music

What song makes you feel like you're exactly where you're supposed to be?

I remember hearing this raspy singer and being blown away with just how different it was to everything else that I was hearing on the radio.

The song is great in that it makes a declaration about who he is.

Share a song that captures the feeling of being completely content.

This is a very relaxing song and I should probably add it to a "chill mix". It's interesting to see how a band can have a wide range in creating music.

I don't know anything other than the chorus for this song. I really like the search on crucial tracks because I'm able to find it with just one line.

"Too Close" by Next

Listen on Apple Music

What was your favorite song in high school? Why did it resonate?

I don't have a favorite song but this one was the first to come to mind.

There are a lot of hormones during high school and certain things tend to pop up and make a situation awkward. SNL had a sketch about Grind Time that hit very close to home.

What song makes you want to write a letter?

Her music was SO good!

I used to write my wife letters on a regular basis but stopped...

I've really got to get back into that. She deserves to be told how much I love her.

Pick a song from an artist or band that’s had the biggest impact on your life.

I think I talk about Michael Jackson a lot, but I wanted to point out this song that makes me hit the accelerator!

I really loved the music video in how it used claymation to make a fun story about enjoying speed.
