Ordinarily, I would agree with the clever ad department for Folgers and say that the best part of waking up is any kind of coffee in my cup. But, not even my devotion to the drink akin to the nectar of the gods could overtake the beauty of a sunrise. Since I've been back at school, I have enjoyed some stunning ones. They perfectly represent what Sunshiny Beat is all about; finding the simple pleasures in life. I mean what could be more simple than the gorgeous color show the earth gives us everyday? I think they really do make-up for the whole not sleeping-in thing. Of course, coffee does come in a close second place.
In honor of these beautiful sights, I have devised a Wake-Up playlist for this Music Monday. Hopefully, these tunes will help you start each day in a happy and upbeat mood. You'll notice that I took the Wake-Up theme quite literally.
Wham!-"Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" I challenge you not to smile while watching this video!
The Matches- "Wake the Sun"
Michael Franti and Spearhead- "The Sound of Sunshine"
Norah Jones- "Sunrise"
Matt Costa-"Sunshine"
Even though it might be cold and gloomy out, I hope you all carry the sunshine with you. Happy end-of-Monday everyone!
While those sunrises were stunning and your playlist is fantastic as always, why were up so early? I didn't think it was common practice for a college student to wake up before the sun.
