• May 31, 2007: Hoku:Perfect Day nominated by Vip.

I was listening to this song after I heard it in a commercial and a movie, I believe it was Legally Blonde. I struggled to hear a verse in the song so I looked it up on this site. When I found it I thought it was a really nice song, better than most lyrics of songs that are out today. So I decided to nominate this as Song of the Day.

• May 30, 2007: The Corrs:Breathless nominated by Andrew Horne.

Andrea Corr wrote this with Mutt Lange in Switzerland. It's a bizarre situation going to meet someone for the first time and trying to write a song with them but it worked great. It became the band’s breakthrough worldwide hit.

• May 29, 2007: Linkin Park:Numb nominated by Sunrise.

I came across this song accidentally, and when I did, I really liked it! It speaks truly about social alienation and why many students are doing bad in school; the reason is contained in this song. If you haven't heard it before, you are really missing out!

This is probably the best song off her debut album, and the only one written by Carrie herself. It's very catchy and relatable. Even if you aren't a southern/small town girl that moved to the big city.

• May 07, 2007: Rascal Flatts:Life Is A Highway nominated by Andrew Horne.

This is my favorite Rascal Flatts song because, not only did they cover Tom Cochrane's song, but they also performed it for the Pixar film Cars and it became a successful country hit.

• May 06, 2007: The Clarks:Born Too Late nominated by Sean Colombo.

Altough The Clarks never got the exposure they deserve, they made catchy songs that were also lyrically deep. This is a great example and it has a bounty cultural references (that we have deciphered for you!).

This song is a love letter to a girl named Wendy, whom the bike-riding protagonist certainly has a passion to love. Springsteen noted that it has a much simpler core: getting out of Asbury Park. This song attained a little success and it is possibly my favorite song of all time.
