"So I put my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like, yeah
Movin' my hips like, yeah"
August brings HEX's birthday and with it many celebrations. We here at SOUP decided that we'd like to celebrate all of our collective birthdays at once. So grab some candles, and perhaps a match, and help us celebrate birthdays of all kinds! Our SOUP Writers have found plenty of rockin' tunes to help you get into the mood as you read our latest edition. We have a little bit of this to go with a little bit of that. Some may be slightly sad, but they are all meant to get you up and bopping along with the beat.
Why not grab your trusty electronic device, something tasty to imbibe, and click play while you read the latest issue of SOUP? The songs listed below are sure to make you dance along, or perhaps just nod your head, as you gear up for all of the celebrations to come. If you enjoy our writer's choices, don't forget to let us know. You'll even earn a coveted Jewel for posting in our Common Room thread!
The format is easy. It's listed in this order: song - artist - SOUPer who submitted the song.
Have fun listening!
