Favorite Song Friday

OK Peeps, it’s Friday afternoon, the sun is finally shining in South West PA, and there is nothing, I mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, I would rather be doing than sitting on the back porch drinking beer with my Dad! I love Kid Rock, and it is widely known that if he comes to the ‘bury looking for me, I AM GONE! I always felt like ‘drinking beer with dad’ was just one of those songs, you know, that was written for folks like me! I may love it even more now that my dad is gone, and especially on these sunny days when I fondly remember getting Friday afternoon text messages from my Dad to meet him for a beer (and I would clock out of work a little early). XOXO Cheers Dad!

“We’d hem and haw, we’d cuss and fight

But that’s where I learned life’s best advice

We’d talk about when I (he) was young and bad

Sometimes he’d make me fightin mad

Best education I ever had

Was out there on the back porch drinking beer with Dad”

Thank you Kid Rock!

Favorite Song Friday

Every once in a while, a new song kind of sounds like an old favorite from the very first time I hear it.  I’ve had a few of those this summer – Kelsea Ballerini’s “Love Me Like You Mean It” and Frankie Ballard’s “Sunshine and Whiskey” have been at the top of my favorites list.

Well, it’s happened again.  My favorite song this Friday is B.Y.H.B. by Uncle Ezra Ray.  Uncle Ezra Ray is being called a ’90’s “super” group and here they are making my Favorite Song Friday in July 2015.  Uncle Ezra Ray features Uncle Kracker, Better than Ezra’s Kevin Griffin, and Sugar Ray’s Mark McGrath. Catchy, huh!

Warning…. it appears from #byhb and #highwayfind that people either love or hate this song.  I like my music to feel good.  It’s music and it’s Friday, don’t overthink it people.  This tune makes me move while confined to the driver’s seat in my car.

It’s also been said that this song could pass as a Florida Georgia Line tune, but I’d take that as a serious compliment if I was Uncle Ezra Ray.

Bottom line, this is a ’90’s kind of song making waves summer 2015, and how can I not love a song that – tweets about a party and has some Love Shack bumping on an 8 track?

After all, they’re just having a ball drinking wine straight out the box.  Happy Friday everyone!
