I watched Jerry Maguire too much as a kid.

I watched too much Jerry Maguire as a kid so I can't get enough of this song. Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lWJXDG2i0A Jerry Maguire Scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSnMjKRaoxM

It's a great song and movie.

This is a an original of mine I wrote for my mom's birthday last year.

This is another song I chose to play for my mom's birthday weekend. It has an amazing but tough to stomach message.

I chose this song because it is my mom's birthday this weekend and so I figured I would play some of her favorites.

I chose to do this original song today because of the all of the smoke in the air in BC.

At the request of a friend. I hadn't heard this song before but I'm a fan now.

I wish I could do the solo to this song as well but I can only do so much with an acoustic. I can't get Bill and Ted out of my head when I hear this song. Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2r2n... Bill and Ted Moment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-eXU...

I always like playing Snow Patrol songs. This one is always a good crowd pleaser for shows, but isn't my favorite of theirs.

This a song I wrote for my daughter for putting her to bed or for when she's asleep. It seemed like a good choice as she was sleeping when I got home.

I love covering Bruce Springsteen music and this song from the movie by the same name is a favorite of mine.

This song was written by my wife about our daughter. Lyrics: My little monkey climbing up the walls Throwing toys and running down the halls One year old and you’re driving me insane But I love you more than words can explain You make a mess and its part of the game Crawling, jumping, you’re never the same I’m on my toes always watching out for you But I wouldn’t want it any other way its true You’re my little monkey, wild and free Driving me crazy but you’re all I need You make my heart skip a beat or two You’re my little monkey and I love you so Some days are tough but we will get through Cuz’ I’ve got you and you’ve got me too Though you’re wild, you’re my little star You light up my life wherever you are My little monkey heart and soul Watching you grow, seeing you unfold I’ll be right here very step of the way Cuz’ you’re my little monkey and you’re here to stay You’re my little monkey, wild and free Driving me crazy but you’re all I need You make my heart skip a beat or two You’re my little monkey and I love you so You’re my little monkey, wild and free Driving me crazy but you’re all I need You make my heart skip a beat or two You’re my little monkey and I love you so My little monkey climbing up the walls Throwing toys and running down the halls One year old and you’re driving me insane But I love you more than words can explain

This is another song I wrote for my wife. It's about keeping the relationship healthy even with a baby keeping you busy.

I wrote this song for my wife from the perspective of either myself or our cat "Sweet Dee". Lyrics: I'm sitting right here along, waiting until you're back with me Cuz baby while you've been away there's been a lot of things to see I've seen this world move and change, I've seen so many crazy things I've seen the kind of stuff, the kind of stuff that really makes you think But darling enough about me please tell me all about your day Where did you go, who did you see and darling tell me what did they say I can't wait to hear your footsteps falling outside the door Baby I'm so excited I don't think I can wait no more You shake me up and baby I'm in love with you It's not enough to say that I'm in love it's true You're the one that I was waiting for Even though I didn't know what I was waiting for You shake me up and baby I'm in love with you It's 3am and it's dark outside, you know it's Kitty Time And Kitty Time means that pretty soon you'll be all mine That may sound like some crazy shit to anyone but you and me But darling I don't care about them cuz' you're the only one that I can see You're my food you're my warmth yea baby you're my everything Darling without you I'd die, I'd have nothing left to sing I hope that you miss me I hope that you need me too Baby I hope that you need me as badly as I need you You shake me up and baby I'm in love with you It's not enough to say that I'm in love it's true You're the one that I was waiting for Even though I didn't know what I was waiting for You shake me up and baby I'm in love with you Darling have I ever I told you how much I love it when you scratch my back? Some people do it wrong but darling you really seem to have the knack Babe I love that scent you wear oh wait you say "that's just you" Well darling if you're saying so well then I know it must be true We're in the final stretches now and I can't wait until you're in my arms I'll show you all the tricks I've learnt, I'll show you all my charms I can't wait to see you even thought it hasn't been that long In fact I think you might have left right as I began to write this song You shake me up and baby I'm in love with you It's not enough to say that I'm in love it's true You're the one that I was waiting for Even though I didn't know what I was waiting for You shake me up and baby I'm in love with you

One of my favorites by John Denver. Thanks to Kingsman 2 and Logan Lucky I always think of Channing Tatum now when I hear this song and visa versa. Kingsman 2 Scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VSRMRh8fEs Logan Lucky Scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5-KZ_RcGes

I was listening to the "Across the Universe" version today and so I figured I would cover this song. Such an amazing song but everything by the Beatles is pretty amazing,.

Needed a bit of a feel good song for today so this seemed like a good choice.

This song has been one of my favorites to cover over the years and still is.

There have been a lot of great covers of this song and so I thought I'd do my own.

I've grown up listening to Bruce Springsteen and love playing his music so this seemed like a good choice today.

An original of mine called Bury me Underground. More originals up on Soundcloud and Bandlab. https://soundcloud.com/taylorvanzant https://www.bandlab.com/vanzantium
