Stefy - Chelsea

Remember the film John Tucker Must Die? Typical story of how boy dates three girls at once, as they try to destroy him by adding the new girl into the mix. I guess that's why this song fits in with the film, because she found her man all over Chelsea o_o! After all, everybody is looking for something c"; But the strange thing about this song is, she is blaming herself for leaving him with her... What a twist that is. So is she angry, or regretting her decision for knowing what was going down? It's certainly a torture game with this song, making perfect sense to sample the beat of Sweet Dreams.

The Cheetah Girls - Everybody

Although this single is well known by Britney Spears, the demo by the Cheetah Girls have a different vibe. For starters, they are a band aimed towards kids, so the song has to be 'clean,' even though 'Sweet Dreams' isn't really, well, appropriate. Second, they give their own flavour to the song, like it's sexier when they don't sing the obvious (innocence is a turn on, perhaps?) And finally, maybe this is a song that you get your groove on, if you know what I mean. After all, all flavours are available [if you know what I mean ;)] Not too shabby for a sampling, making it more appealing than it already is.

P!nk ft Redman - Get The Party Started (Sweet Dreams Remix)

If there is one iconic song of the 80s, I think it would have to be Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams. With the blessing of that song, this month is dedicated to artists who have sampled them in their work. To begin things, P!nk made a remix of her smash single 'Get The Party Started.' When I heard this, I honestly thought it was so off that it was totally on! There is a funk persona added to the song, like mischief is about to happen, but when you least expect it. Eerily danceable, yet I want to song to continue beyond 4 minutes. Thank you to P!nk & Redman for creating such a unique twist to the hit!

Kelly Clarkson - Tie It Up

It may all be over, but this is pretty much sums up the experience: partying it up! After all of the planning, the preparing, and the stress it has caused everyone, just glad they're finally married d": And adding a little Country to any wedding gets everyone all fired up on the dance floor. Kelly Clarkson certainly knows how it all works, she got married last year! This little ditty is a thrill to listen to, for a Reception kind of vibe, stuff like that going on. The memories will always last, but the party has just begun. So let's get things rolling, because forever is a long time <3 p="">

Westlife - Beautiful In White

Boy band, check. Sampling a classical piece, check. Lyrics that will sob your heart out, CHECK. If this isn't the perfect Wedding Song, I don't know what is. However, my sister isn't really into the sappy Love Songs, otherwise I would have sung this (maybe I'll upload it one day). Finding a Wedding song from the Groom's perspective can be quite a challenge, but this says everything that goes through his mind perfectly. From the beginning until the end of time, that beauty resembles the life they will share together: pure love that is everlasting. Well done, Generic Pop that can make you shed a tear c':

Colbie Caillat - I Do

Who can resist the charm of Colbie Caillat? This song is adorable, all about her future plans spending the rest of her life with that special someone :"3 Maybe it's a little bit overdone with the repetitive lyrics, but when that moment comes, I'm pretty sure those are the only words you'll be saying over and over again. Over your head and running for the hills, because she's madly in love with the one that just proposed to her. Oh Colbie, you never disappoint with your irresistible charisma. I feel that only vibes like these will be present at my sister's wedding... I can't wait for it!

Jason Derulo - Marry Me

The theme on New Old Music is all about what else? Marriage! As my sister is getting married, I have decided to show all of the wedding songs that I found - who knew there would be so many though o_O Usually known for his Dance Tracks, Jason Derulo created this ballad, and though it doesn't venture that far from his usual style, I will admit it's great to see his, cleaner side if I were to put it delicately. It's about the life he's preparing for, the shining moment where he turns from a boy into a man. And with Jordin Sparks as his wife, who wouldn't be up on Cloud 9? Bravo, Mister Derulo.
