Girls just wanna have fun! — Cyndi Lauper
I love country music, especially Tim McGraw and Keith Urban. But when it comes to scrapping music, I love anything that has me dancing in my chair and singing all the words. It keeps my energy up and the creativity flowing.
Photographs & Memories – Jim Croce
Making Memories of Us – Keith Urban
Summertime – Kenny Chesney
Don’t Blink – Kenny Chesney
Anything by Pink!
Sunshine & Sunnertime- Faith Hill
These are all great, but I usually listen to Enya…I love calming, beautiful background music when I am in my happy place crafting! 🙂
I like to listen to Marianas Trench; Micheal McDonald; Hedley; and Justin Bieber while I scrap or make cards. Not really paying attention to the words for all, but enjoying my favourite tunes while I spend time doing my favourite things.
I love Toby Mac- usually I listen to Toby Mac Radio on Pandora!
No Matter Where You Are – Us The Duo
Poems, Prayers and Promises – John Denver
Better Together – Jack Jackson or Us the Duo
Baby Blue – George Strait
Yesterday – The Beatles
For a Little While – Tim McGraw

Depends on what I’m scrapping. It’s really fun to scrap pics of my oldest daughter (15) while jamming to the Ramones. “Sheena is a Punk Rocker” has become my theme song for her!
That’s so fun that you have a theme song for your daughter!
Love this list!! For me – anything by Meghan Trainor is at the top of the list 🙂
Meghan Trainor is great!
I think you left off “Wind Beneath My Wings” by Bette Midler. I’m crying my eyes out with all the memories these songs bring up! Some I haven’t heard before (not all the old ones.)
We’re glad you liked it, Kathleen!
If I Ever Leave This World Alive by Flogging Molly
Love it!
Michael G Ronstadt
Shaken Earth
Foolish Fox
Here in the D… we scrap to Kid Rock – All Summer Long!! https://youtu.be/vzWbCD67YFY (Detroit, Michigan)
Music from the 60’s, beach boys, Monkees,Beatles,Rolling Stones and more
She’s Crafty – Beastie Boys
We have RnB fridays and there nothing better than turning that up and scrapping the day away.
I like to get up and shake it every once in a while, so “Happy” (Pharrell) and “Uptown Funk” (Mark Ronson) do that for me. Add in some Michael Jackson (“Wanna Be Startin’ Something” and “Billie Jean”) and some Beatles, and I am in my happy place. 🙂
’80’s hair bands! Lol! I also like movie soundtracks (Top Gun, Footloose) plus bands like 3 doors down, Prince, country… Just depends on my mood
I LOVE to listen to Sam Hunt or Kari Jobe radio on Pandora-but lately “Amercia’s Sweetheart” had been what is on REPLAY over and over and over again!! 🙂
I love “These Are Days” by 10,000 Maniacs. “Your Heart Will Lead You Home” by Kenny Loggins is what Scrapbooking is all about,,,funny that a photograph can take you back in time.
Pictures of you, Pictures of me by The Last Goodnight – the best!
My wish by rascal Flatts
“Wish i could save this moment” Colin Raye
Great list!
Fyi, I started listening to this last night and here comes hubby. He said “Where did you get this music?” Then he listened to all the rest! Lol. Thanks for that memory!
You are so welcome, Kathleen! What a wonderful memory. 🙂
I loved listening to this playlist – some old, some new, some country. Lots of memories, lots of emotions. Thank you CTMH.
You’re welcome, Allison! Thanks for the comment. 🙂
Yours is a really beautiful playlist, Jeannette!
Most of these are in my top rated on itunes but another one is Live Like You Were Dying by Tim McGraw. It reminds me to enjoy life not just from behind the camera which is what I tend to do but to actually be an active participant.
