30 Day Song Challenge

Day 6: A song from your favorite album.

Now let's be honest, I don't have one favorite album. Do you? seriously. In this day and age with iTunes, iPods, and everything to that nature, bands and artists don't usually put out a quality album. They put out songs. It's all about songs now, but how many current artists have compiled 10 really good or even great songs and sold them on an album at the same time? It's like they only have so many good songs to give so they put a couple on this album and a couple on that album and the rest of the album is mediocre at best.

Now like I said I don't have a favorite album BUT I do have a favorite current band, Muse. And their album The Resistance has become one of my all time favorite ALBUMS. It is a complete album where I believe any of the songs could stand alone. An album should make it hard to pick a favorite or a stand out and that's what this album does. This is a true complete album and is one of my very favorites. It's almost unheard of these days for an ALBUM to be what it's supposed to, so I have to say Muse wins this Day 6 all the way!

Thankfully we don't have to buy our music by the album anymore because plenty of awesome bands and artists have killer songs that are on mediocre albums and that's okay because again, we can just buy the song individually now. But this Day was about the art of an album, which I love.
