"Pardon My Freedom" by !!!

Listen on Apple Music

Share a song that represents rebellion or freedom to you.

I shared this song with my kids. I'm not always feeling this way but it feels good to put this one on and cut loose.

"I Wanna Sex You Up (Single Mix)" by Color Me Badd

Listen on Apple Music

What's a song with lyrics you didn't fully understand until you were older?

I had -and if you ask my wife still don't - no understanding of what any of these words mean.

I hate being angry.

So I told myself not to be mad.

Then I felt apathy and that feels so much worse.

If people fighting for their rights and freedom are considered a riot, than I guess it’s a riot.

This caught my eye.

A streetlight illuminates tree branches surrounded by foliage against a dusky sky.

"Larger Than Life" by Backstreet Boys

Listen on Apple Music

What's a song that feels larger than life to you?

Sorry, not sorry. This is the track that comes to mind when I saw the prompt. I still smile thinking about how people would argue whether Backstreet Boys or N*sync were better.

"Life Is a Highway" by Rascal Flatts

Listen on Apple Music

Describe the perfect song for a road trip and why it works.

I didn't think much of this song when I heard it in the movie, but it's really grown on me over the years. I think it's because my daughter would keep on saying "Kachow".

I don’t like the idea of using the year for version numbers of operating systems. Reminds me of windows 95 and 98.

Of course, someone wants to go walking when I’m just about to go to bed.

A dog stands on a grassy area at night, illuminated by light, with a fence and trees in the background.

The family loves her

Lillie staring into the distance.

You came in and just stole everyone’s heart.

And stuffed up everyone’s nose.

Keep doing what you’re doing!
