natalka


first up, natalka's fun PLAYLIST. she writes: "So, my theme is inspirational songs. These songs always lift my mood and they never bore me!"

1.      Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence
2.      Kylie Minogue - 2 Hearts
3.      Muse - New Born 
4.      Natasha Bedingfield - These Words 
5.      R.E.M. - Love Is All Around 
6.      Queen - Don't Stop Me Now
7.      The Beatles - All You Need is Love 
8.      The Rolling Stones-  Rain Fall Down
9.      The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony
10.     Zaz- je veux 
"Most of these songs are not only my favorite but also my husband’s. It’s very important for me to have a partner with similar tastes, as they're the person I want to live life with! You can see, we are vintage folks when it comes to music. I can barely name 1 or 2 songs from the last year that I like. Zaz is the youngest in the list. 
Well, I thought about Adele but it had to take some time for the song to jump here.
All of the songs are confirmed by our little 2 years old son. He's enjoyed them since he was a baby. And when he learned to walk he started to dance and sing, too."

thanks so much, natalka! love your fun playlist! now for the superfun GIVEAWAY!
