    CollegeCandy’s Guide To Summer Music Festivals

    With all the free time and sunshine that summer brings, there’s no better time to pile in the car with your friends and take a road trip. And there’s no better destination than a 3-day music festival. Is there anything better than lounging on a blanket, soaking up the sun and listening to your favorite songs!? I think not.

  • Our Grammy Predictions

    Our Grammy Predictions

    The Grammys are only a few hours away! We haven’t been this excited since the Golden Globes…2 weeks ago. But to be fair, we didn’t really care who won the awards at the Globes – we just wanted to see what all those people were going to wear on the Red Carpet. The Grammys are different; music plays such an important part in our lives and we feel totally connected to the people who bring it to us.

    CollegeCandy’s Grammy Drinking Game

    This Sunday, January 31st, the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards will air on CBS. And you must know what we’re thinking: it’s the perfect excuse to drink on a Sunday! (Until the Super Bowl, that is.) Nothing goes better with good music than an ice cold beer (or 12), so we at CollegeCandy have come up with the perfect drinking game to accompany the big night.

    The 2009 Mega Mix

    There is no better way to remember a year than with music. Especially music that gets overplayed every hour on the radio. Those songs just take you back and no matter how many years later, you’ll always remember where you were and what you were doing when those mega hits came out.

    Are You Ready for the MTVu Woodies?

    Thanks to our biffles over at MTV, I was able to go to the MTVu’s Woodie awards. What’s a woodie? Oh, please. Don’t act like you don’t know. The Woodie Awards is only the coolest, most underrated award show ever. MTVu brings my favorite coffee shop jams and booty shaking music together and rewards them with an awkward wooden statue.

  • Taylor Swift Is Overrated

    Taylor Swift Is Overrated

    I like Taylor Swift. I like that she’s sweet and wholesome, I like that she writes her own music, I like that they play her music all the time on the radio so I can turn it up loud when I’m driving and sing at the top of my lungs. I think she’s got awesome hair and love that she doesn’t let her 5’11 frame bother her. I really do like her. But all that being said, I also think the Taylor-mania is getting a little out of control.

    Let it Rock: I Listen to Whatever the Internet Tells me to Listen to

    When the Internets talk, I listen. Really. Think about how easy the Internet makes it to discover new music. Almost as easy as it is to find porn. Sometimes when I’m bored, I just browse the Internet to discover new bands and I’m constantly shocked by how many artists and bands I’ve never heard of until I see or hear them online.
