Happy Tuesday! Welcome to another edition of Tunes Tuesday 🙂 As always, I’m thrilled to host this link up with Janelle and Steff each week! We appreciate you taking the time to read our Tunes Tuesday blogs each week!
Today’s theme is random music. You know, those songs that are own your playlist but you’re not sure how they got there. Or better yet, you don’t even remember downloading them? Oftentimes I love hitting the random feature on my iPod because the songs will surprise me. It takes me mind of my workout when I’m guessing “Which song will play next?” Here are two songs that recently “surprised” me.
Song: Headsprung
Album: The DEFinition
Artist: LL Cool J
Genre: Hip Hop / Dance Pop
Year Released: June 2004
Of course LL Cool J has had tons of hits over the years, but this song was different. IT didn’t really fit his “style” of music but I loved it. Even though the lyrics don’t really make any sense, the beat is great. Also, this song will always make me laugh because my mom used it as her ringtone back in the day (LOL).
Song: Teach Me How To Dougie
Album: The Kickback
Artist: Cali Swag District
Genre: Pop Rap / Dance Rap
Year Released: April 2010
I’m usually a fan of any song that requires a special type of dance, no matter how foolish the song might be. Based on this song, everyone knew how to Dougie 7 years ago. In fact, I can still do it 🙂 You really can’t go wrong with a catchy dance song. The only issue with this song is that I often want to actually do the Dougie when I hear it. This can be problematic when running!
Do you have any random songs on your playlist? Let us know and add your blog post to the link up below!

OMG Headsprung used to be my JAM. I couldn’t relate to any of the other songs on the CD, but I loved that one.

LoL, right?! Headsprun was so good back in the day!
Janelle @ Run With No Regrets says
Great picks! Headsprung was definitely a different kind of LL song and I loved it too! I never did learn how to Dougie…I can’t believe the song is 7 years old now!

It’s funny how time flies! I didn’t realize the song was that old until I started writing the blog post, lol

Haha I used to know how to Dougie but I dont think I do anymore! The kids I worked with loved that song and did the dance all the time. I love hearing random songs pop up on my playlist!
